Abstract:
In a recent Nature paper, Itzhaki et al. (2011) generate induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from patients with a potentially fatal inherited arrhythmia, long QT syndrome type 2. Cardiomyocytes differentiated from the patient-derived iPSCs exhibit the hallmark cardiac electrical signatures of the disease, which can be reversed by pharmacological intervention.
