Outline of Final Research Achievements

Arrhythmia has never been diagnosed after death. Then, we hypothesized that arrhythmia can be postmortem diagnosed iiPS-related cardiomyocyte induced by skin fibroblast. To clarify the hypothesis, the object in this study was to found iPS cell culture and established the system for detection of arrhythmia using carddiomyocytes. It was difficult to culture iPS cells, leading to increase fibroblasts. On there other hand, we could detect arrhythmia in cardipmyocytes using MED64. We are challenging the isolation of skin fibroblast after death and inducing iPS cells, leading to postmortem diagnosis of arrhythmia using iPS cells.
