Description
Artificial heart muscle cell for cardiotoxicity tests. Fluorescent light micrograph of a heart muscle cell (cardiomyocyte) derived from an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC). This artificial laboratory-made cardiomyocyte can be used to test chemotherapy drugs for potentially harmful side effects. Proteins that are important for muscle cell contraction are highlighted in red and green, and cell nuclei are blue. This image was created in 2017, as part of research carried out at Stanford University, USA.
