제목 Electrical stimulation facilitates differentiation of chemically induced cardiac spheroids
초록 Direct reprogramming technique which converts somatic cells to other lineage cells has been attracting attention because this method can easily generate the desired cell types without using stem cells. However, there is still a need for improvement in reprogramming efficiency. Here, we generated 3D cardiac spheroids using direct reprogramming with small molecules. We confirmed that cardiac-specific markers were expressed in formed 3D spheroids and gene expression levels associated with cardiac differentiation were upregulated compared to 2D direct reprogramming. To further enhance reprogramming efficiency, we briefly screened the voltages which can facilitate 3D cardiac reprogramming and affect the beating of induced cardiac cells. Electrically stimulated spheroids showed upregulated cardiac gene expression compared with the ones without stimulation. This research was supported by a grant (19172mfds168) from Ministry of Food and Drug Safety in 2020.
