Impact of Microgravity on Cardiac Cells Derived From Stem CellsMonday, 14 October 2019 at 13:15 Add to Calendar ▼2019-10-14 13:15:002019-10-14 14:15:00Europe/LondonImpact of Microgravity on Cardiac Cells Derived From Stem CellsThe Space Summit 2019 in Coronado Island, CaliforniaCoronado Island, CaliforniaSELECTBIOenquiries@selectbiosciences.com Cardiac muscle cells derived from stem cells have the potential to be used to repair damaged heart tissue and to model cardiac disease. Cardiac muscle cells can be derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells using factors that regulate cardiogenesis. However, practical use of these cells faces challenge in efficient cell production. We have found that combining tissue engineering and microgravity can improve the quality of cardiac cells derived from stem cells. |
