Abstract
We describe the possibility of obtaining cardiomyocyte-like cell cultures from rat, guinea pig, and human bone marrow stromal stem cells. The content of troponin I-positive cells attains 35-45% of the total number of cells in the cultures and persists at this level for up to 4 months under differentiation conditions. Spontaneous contractions of cardiomyocyte-like cells were observed after the formation of cell monolayer under differentiation conditions.
