Dystrophin-deficient cardiomyocytes derived from human urine: New biologic reagents for drug discovery

Dystrophin-deficient cardiomyocytes derived from human urine: New biologic reagents for drug discovery

The ability to extract somatic cells from a patient and reprogram them to pluripotency opens up new possibilities for personalized medicine. Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have been employed to generate beating cardiomyocytes from a patient's skin or blood cells. Here, iPSC methods were...
