Atomic force mechanobiology of pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes.

Atomic force mechanobiology of pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes.

We describe a method using atomic force microscopy (AFM) to quantify the mechanobiological properties of pluripotent, stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes, including contraction force, rate, duration, and cellular elasticity. We measured beats from cardiomyocytes derived from induced pluripotent stem ce...
