Characterization of iPS Derived Cardiomyocytes in Voltage Clamp and Current Clamp by Automated Patch Clamp

assessment of potassium current in royan b1 stem cell derived cardiomyocytes by patch-clamp technique

embryonic stem cells are capable of differentiating to variety of cell tissues including cardiomyocytes. this developmental change is accompanied with a great deal of ion channel expression and functions. mouse stem cell derived cardiomyocytes were prepared and separated to yield isolated single cell suspension for cell current recording. in the present study some properties of the k + -current...

Automated patch clamp on mESC-derived cardiomyocytes for cardiotoxicity prediction.

Cardiovascular side effects are critical in drug development and have frequently led to late-stage project terminations or even drug withdrawal from the market. Physiologically relevant and predictive assays for cardiotoxicity are hence strongly demanded by the pharmaceutical industry. To identify a potential impact of test compounds on ventricular repolarization, typically a variety of ion cha...

Automated planar patch-clamp.

Ion channels are integral membrane proteins that regulate the flow of ions across the plasma membrane and the membranes of intracellular organelles of both excitable and non-excitable cells. Ion channels are vital to a wide variety of biological processes and are prominent components of the nervous system and cardiovascular system, as well as controlling many metabolic functions. Furthermore, i...

Automated voltage-clamp technique.

The voltage-clamp electrophysiology method is the gold standard for measuring the function of ion channels. In the past, this technique has had limited applicability in pharmaceutical drug discovery because of its low throughput, steep learning curve, and challenges in standardization of the experiments. Recently, new electrophysiology platforms have been developed, which are based on the use o...
