  • Application note 009-02: Cardiomyocytes differentiation — on combination of full-length Biolaminin® 521 (LN521) and Biolaminin 221 (LN221) substrates)

    Pluripotent stem cell (PSC)-derived cardiomyocytes play a key role in therapies of the future, serving directly as cellular therapy, as source material for tissue-specific extracellular vesicles, and as a platform for drug development. This requires standardized, reproducible, and efficient derivation of cardiomyocytes.This application note describes a published method on how to derive xeno-free and defined cardiovascular progenitor (CVP) cells and cardiomyocytes (CM) at high efficiency with a combination of Biolaminin 521 and 221 substrates (Yap L. et al. 2019 and 2023). The method is twice as efficient as other standardized substrates. The cells mature and display critical functional features, such as contraction and electrophysiological signatures, improving heart function over time after successful integration into infarcted pig heart.
