In this manuscript, we demonstrate pitfalls with popular antibodies and sample preparation conditions commonly used for the assessment of cardiomyocyte identity within differentiation cultures. By using a rigorous fit-for-purpose workflow, the authors developed and validated a comprehensive protocol to accurately assess cardiomyocyte identity within hPSC-CM cultures. The new protocol includes stepwise instructions to facilitate its implementation by experts and novices, alike.

August 2016
In a collaboration between the laboratory of Steve Duncan at MUSC and the Gundry lab, we applied the Cell Surface Capture Technology and the Cell Surface Protein Atlas to map proteins on the surface of primary human hepatocytes. From here, new markers for sorting liver-like cells derived from human pluripotent stem cells were developed. The story is highlighted HERE.

April 2016
The Gundry lab was awarded a 4 year $1.5M R01 grant from NIH/NHLBI for the project entitled "Cell Surface Proteins in Human Cardiomyocytes"
