Biowire model of interstitial and focal cardiac fibrosis

Abstract:

Myocardial fibrosis is a severe global health problem due to its prevalence in all forms of cardiac diseases and direct role in causing heart failure. The discovery of efficient antifibrotic compounds has been hampered due to the lack of a physiologically relevant disease model. Herein, we present a disease model of human myocardial fibrosis and use it to establish a compound screening system. In the Biowire II platform, cardiac tissues are suspended between a pair of poly(octamethylene malea...
