Outline of Research at the Start |
1./ To conduct functional assays to assess cardiac functionality 2./ Elucidation of molecular mechanisms: (1) activation of gene repressors or activators or (2) activation of signaling cascades via kinase phosphorylations 3./ Developing a DNA integrative-free system for key factors delivery.
|
Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We extensively worked in developing safe methods to increase the maturation of hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes to improve clinical applications in regenerative medicine.
Eventually, we developed methods to increase the adult-like properties of hiPSC-CM that can be transferred to clinical applications.
|
Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
We developed methods with clinical applications to increase the maturation of cardiac tissues derived from human iPS exploiting the control of the cardiac cell cycle.
