dECM source Formulation Cell source Findings References
Porcine cECM 2D coating Rat neonatal CPCs Improved cardiac commitment, proliferation, adhesion, reduction in apoptosis compared to collagen or adipose dECM
Improved production of MMPs/TIMPs compared to collagen
[43]
2D coating Rat neonatal CPCs Improved VEGF production, decreased Cx43 expression with strain [107]
3D hydrogel Human fetal and adult CPCs Improved cardiac commitment, endothelial commitment, proliferation, survival compared to collagen [109]
3D hydrogel with genipin Human MSCs Improved mature EC commitment, reduced early EC commitment with genipin crosslinking [112]
Murine cECM 2D coating Human ADSCs Improved cardiac commitment compared to standard tissue culture, further improved by combination of inductive cocktail and cECM [108]
Human pECM 3D hydrogel Human CPCs Improved migration, survival, proliferation, cardiac commitment compared to 2D pECM or 3D collagen [110]
Bovine cECM (fetal and adult) 2D coating and 3D hydrogel Human iPSC-derived CMs Improved expression of calcium-handling genes in 3D adult cECM compared to fetal
Improved calcium signaling and kinetics in 3D adult cECM compared to 2D adult cECM
