Non-CMs do not have a notable influence on CM electrophysiology through paracrine effects. (A-E) Analysis of optical AP amplitude (A), maximum upstroke velocities (Vmax) (B), APD50 (AP duration at 50% repolarization) (C), APD90 (D), and APD90/APD50 (E) for CMs cultured with conditioned media from CMs, non-CMs, co-culture with 1 part non-CM to 9 parts CM (1:9), or 7:3 co-culture. Data were collected from six independent differentiations representing five clones from two unrelated individuals between days 38 and 40 of differentiation. CM media: n = 121 cells; 1:9 media: n = 118 cells; and 7:3 media: n = 121 cells; non-CM media: n = 119 cells. Heavier dashed lines within each violin indicate medians and lighter dashed lines indicate interquartile range. Data were initially analyzed by a Kruskal-Wallis test (P < 0.01 for Vmax, P < 0.001 for APD90/APD50, and n.s. for all others) and pairwise P values were calculated by Mann-Whitney U tests for Vmax and APD90/APD50 (*P ≤ 0.0083; **P ≤ 0.001).
