Abstract:Engineered cardiac tissue models become increasingly important for understanding normal and diseased cardiac physiology. The use of in-vitro engineered disease models can give more insight in the changing structurefunction properties during pathological condition; therefore, contributing to the development of new cardiac therapies. It is hypothesized that during cardiac disorders of impaired mechanotransduction, the ratios of cardiomyocytes, fibroblasts and their supporting endogenous extracellular matrix (ECM… Show more
