Summary:
Elucidation of the molecular mechanisms of sunitinib-induced cardiotoxicity using iCell Cardiomyocytes revealed, contrary to previous data using rodent models, that AMPK and RSK do not play a significant role.
Impact:
This study illustrates the limitations of non-human model systems and the benefit and importance of using a human cell-based model system to detect and study human cardiotoxicity.

Summary:
Demonstration that three-dimensional populations of retinal progenitor cells (RPCs) can be isolated from early forebrain populations in both human embryonic stem cell and hiPSC cultures, providing a valuable tool for developmental, functional, and translational studies. Using the established protocol, a transient population of optic vesicle (OV)-like structures that arose during a time period appropriate for normal human retinogenesis were identified.
