Research Abstract |
Fatty acid (FA) compositions in fetal, neonatal, and cultured cardiomyocytes (CMs) were evaluated and compared to each other. The results suggest that cultured CMs have considerably lower amount of polyunsaturated FAs (PUFAs) than neonatal ones do. Thus, we added some PUFAs, which were combined with albumin, into medium, and found that FAs were successfully incorporated in CMs, that FA elongation may have taken place, and that the beating performance was tripled. In the next stage, FAs to add should be optimized to gain the best mechanical performance.
