First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of producing a population of cardiomyocytes, the method comprising:
- (a) incubating cardiovascular mesoderm cells in a cardiac induction medium comprising a WNT inhibitor, VEGF, or both for a period of time to generate cardiovascular progenitor cells that express NKX2-5; and
(b) incubating the cardiovascular progenitor cells in a basic medium comprising VEGF for a period of time to generated a population of cardiomyocytes that are enriched for NKX2-5 pos, cTNTpos cells.
