Local control of excitation-contraction coupling in human embryonic stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes.
We investigated the mechanisms of excitation-contraction (EC) coupling in human embryonic stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hESC-CMs) and fetal ventricular myocytes (hFVMs) using patch-clamp electrophysiology and confocal microscopy. We tested the hypothesis that Ca(2+) influx via voltage-gated L-ty...
