Human iPS cell-engineered three-dimensional cardiac tissues perfused by capillary networks between host and graft

Abstract Stem cell-based cardiac regenerative therapy is expected to be a promising strategy for the treatment of severe heart diseases. Pluripotent stem cells enabled us to reconstruct regenerated myocardium in injured hearts as an engineered tissue aiming for cardiac regeneration. To establish a l...
