New technology can mass produce heart "band-aid" October 09, 2017 Source: People w Japanese researchers have recently invented a technique for culturing cardiomyocytes in large quantities using human induced pluripotent stem cells. This artificially induced cardiomyocyte can help repair damaged hearts like “band-aid†and is expected to be used for heart disease treatment in the future. Induced pluripotent stem cells are stem cells that are "reprogrammed" by mature somatic cells and have similar differentiation potential to embryonic stem cells. Keio University in Japan announced that the researchers have improved the experimental method by superimposing the induced pluripotent stem cell culture vessels with length and width of about 30 cm and 20 cm into 10 layers to form a special multi-layer culture device and invent a ventilation. The system, which uniformly delivers oxygen and carbon dioxide to it, successfully cultured about 1 billion cardiomyocytes in one go. Heart attacks such as myocardial infarction may cause the heart to lose hundreds of millions of cardiomyocytes, while human cardiomyocytes do not regenerate. Induced pluripotent stem cells and embryonic stem cells have the function of differentiating into various cells of the body. The medical community is trying to repair the damaged heart by using artificially induced cardiomyocytes as "band-aid" to replace the dead cardiomyocytes. However, there has been a lack of technology for culturing high-safety cardiomyocytes. The latest results of Japanese researchers are published in the new issue of the US Stem Cell Report.
