A protocol for metabolic characterization of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (iPS-CM)

Recent advances in human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (iPSCM) field offer a novel platform for modeling cardiac metabolism, heart diseases drug candidates screening and cardiac toxicity assessments. These workflows require a fully functional characterization of iPSCMs. Here w...

Description
Summary:Recent advances in human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (iPSCM) field offer a novel platform for modeling cardiac metabolism, heart diseases drug candidates screening and cardiac toxicity assessments. These workflows require a fully functional characterization of iPSCMs. Here we report a step by step protocol for iPSCM metabolic characterization. The described assays cover analysis of small metabolites involved in a vital metabolic pathways.
