Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on how electrical and mechanical functions of the heart can be affected by diseases, using human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) as a model for research.
  • It explores innovative methods to evaluate the electrical and mechanical properties of hiPSC-CMs associated with inherited heart conditions, specifically Brugada syndrome and dilated cardiomyopathy, by organizing them into a bilayer configuration.
  • The research employs advanced techniques such as high-density microelectrode arrays and various microscopy methods to measure cardiac functions and responses to stimulation, providing a comprehensive approach to understanding disease mechanisms and potential drug responses.
