In vitro modeling of ryanodine receptor 2 dysfunction using human induced pluripotent stem cells

Summary

This study demonstrates the suitability of iPS cells in modeling RYR2-related cardiac disorders in vitro and opens new opportunities for investigating the disease mechanism in vitro, developing new drugs, predicting their toxicity, and optimizing current treatment strategies.
