This study systematically investigated the time window of stable ion currents in high-purity hiPSC-derived ventricular cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-vCMs) and confirmed their ability to accurately predict the proarrhythmic risk of CiPA reference compounds. By electrically pacing hiPSC-vCMs at a physiological beating rate using a MEA, drug-induced prolongation of field potential duration and arrhythmia-like events were observed for high- and intermediate-risk drugs. The results provide a simple and feasible method to assess drug proarrhythmic potentials in hiPSC-CMs at a physiological beating rate.
Human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) have been widely used for the assessment of drug proarrhythmic potential through multielectrode array (MEA). HiPSC-CM cultures beat spontaneously with a wide range of frequencies, however, which could affect drug-induced changes in repolarization. Pacing hiPSC-CMs at a physiological heart rate more closely resembles the state of in vivo ventricular myocytes and permits the standardization of test conditions to improve consistency. In this study, we systematically investigated the time window of stable ion currents in high-purity hiPSC-derived ventricular cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-vCMs) and confirmed that these cells could be used to correctly predict the proarrhythmic risk of Comprehensive In Vitro Proarrhythmia Assay (CiPA) reference compounds. To evaluate drug proarrhythmic potentials at a physiological beating rate, we used a MEA to electrically pace hiPSC-vCMs, and we recorded regular field potential waveforms in hiPSC-vCMs treated with DMSO and 10 CiPA reference drugs. Prolongation of field potential duration was detected in cells after exposure to high- and intermediate-risk drugs; in addition, drug-induced arrhythmia-like events were observed. The results of this study provide a simple and feasible method to investigate drug proarrhythmic potentials in hiPSC-CMs at a physiological beating rate.
