The protocol combines the power of generating human cardiovascular cell types using induced pluripotent stem cells and a versatile technique to generate beating cardiac spheroids in less than 72 hours. These cardiac spheroids can be used for disea

Here, we describe an easy-to-use methodology to generate 3D self-assembled cardiac microtissue arrays composed of pre-differentiated human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes, cardiac fibroblasts, and endothelial cells. This user-friendly and low cell requiring technique to generate cardiac microtissues can be implemented for disease modeling and early stages of drug development.
