“…A recent study has compared the ability of cardiac mesoderm cells and cardiomyocytes, derived respectively from 4 to 11 day of differentiation of hiPSCs, to generate cardiac organoids. This study found that the former protocol resulted in the improvement of structure, metabolism, function and overall maturation ( Song et al, 2021 ). In both cases, it is important to note that cardiac organoids arise from a single cell population that self-organizes, unlike cardiac spheroids which are assembled mixing different cell populations (cardiomyocytes, endothelial cells and fibroblasts) at defined ratios ( Polonchuk et al, 2017 ).…”
