  • Patent number: 11773375
    Abstract: The present invention is in the field of pluripotent stem cells, more particularly cardiomyocytes derived from pluripotent stem cells. The present invention provides a novel method for differentiating human pluripotent stem cells into a population of cardiomyocytes having an atrial phenotype, and use of said atrial cardiomyocytes for screening of drugs, AF disease model, and others. The method of the invention is particularly useful to generate cardiomyocytes having a more developed or mature atrialphenotype and/or to generate higher yield of cardiomyocytes having an atrialphenotype.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: October 3, 2023
    Assignee: Ncardia B.V.
    Inventors: Stefan Robbert Braam, Ana Catarina Martins Grandela, Karin Langenberg
  • Publication number: 20220025333
    Abstract: The current invention relates to a method of differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells into a human stem-cell derived population of cardiomyocytes. The method comprises the use of specific combination of steps and compounds to induce and/or promote differentiation. The method also comprises steps directed to further maturation of the cardiomyocytes obtained with the method of the invention. Also provided are kits for use in a method of differentiation as well as cell populations obtainable with the method disclosed.
