Application note: Ncyte® Heart in a Box

Written by Ncardia Stem Cell Experts | February 17, 2025

The Ncyte® Heart in a Box™ represents a groundbreaking advancement in cardiac research and drug discovery by providing a highly relevant, human-derived 3D model of the heart.

Unlike traditional 2D cell culture models, which often fail to replicate the complexity of human tissues, the Ncyte® system integrates three essential cell types—ventricular cardiomyocytes, endothelial cells, and cardiac fibroblasts—into a cohesive, functional model that mimics key aspects of human heart physiology and pathology.
