May the Force Not Be With You During Culture: Eliminating Mechano-Associated Feedback During Culture Preserves Cultured Atrial and Pacemaker Cell Functions
Cultured cardiomyocytes have been shown to possess significant potential as a model for characterization of mechano-Ca2+, mechano-electric, and mechano-metabolic feedbacks in the heart. However, the majority of cultured cardiomyocytes exhibit impaired electrical, mechanical, biochemical, and metabol...
