Abstract:
Objective To detect whether the cardiomyocyte-like cells differentiated from human marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) could produce action potential (AP). Methods Isolated and cultured hMSCs were induced into cardiomyocyte-like cells with 5-Azacytine in vitro. They were measured for their AP by patch clamp technique, and compared with those of hMSCs of the same generation and beating cardiomyocytes (CMs) derived from 2 day-old SD rats. Results 6/30 cardiomyocyte-like cells produced AP. The CMs produced significant AP, hMSCs appeared no AP, and cardiomyocyte-like cells appeared weak AP. Conclusion The hMSCs manifested the potential to differentiate into CMs in the electrophysiology characteristics following 5-Azacytine induction.
