Modelling Torsade de Pointes arrhythmias in vitro in 3D human iPS cell-engineered heart tissue
Torsade de Pointes (TdP) is a life-threatening ventricular arrhythmia often caused by drugs. In response to an urgent need for human tissue TdP models, here the authors describe a 3D human iPS cell-engineered heart tissue that generates TdP in response to drugs, providing a suitable model for studie...

Résumé: | Torsade de Pointes (TdP) is a life-threatening ventricular arrhythmia often caused by drugs. In response to an urgent need for human tissue TdP models, here the authors describe a 3D human iPS cell-engineered heart tissue that generates TdP in response to drugs, providing a suitable model for studies of TdP mechanism and drug toxicity. |
