Postnatal isl1 + cardioblasts enter fully differentiated cardiomyocyte lineages

TL;DR: Co-culture studies with neonatal myocytes indicate that isl1+ cells represent authentic, endogenous cardiac progenitors (cardioblasts) that display highly efficient conversion to a mature cardiac phenotype with stable expression of myocytic markers in the absence of cell fusion, intact Ca2+-cycling, and the generation of action potentials.
Journal ArticleDOI

Patient-specific induced pluripotent stem-cell models for long-QT syndrome.

TL;DR: It was shown that myocytes derived from patients with long-QT syndrome type 1 had an increased susceptibility to catecholamine-induced tachyarrhythmia and that beta-blockade attenuated this phenotype.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multipotent Embryonic Isl1+ Progenitor Cells Lead to Cardiac, Smooth Muscle, and Endothelial Cell Diversification

TL;DR: These studies document a developmental paradigm for cardiogenesis, where muscle and endothelial lineage diversification arises from a single cell-level decision of a multipotent isl1(+) cardiovascular progenitor cell (MICP).
