| Beschreibung: |
Stem cells will be used in regenerative medicine in the near future. To successfully apply stem cells in cell therapy approaches, the signaling cascades which underly formation of organotypic, terminally differentiated cells have to be investigated in detail. In the current research project we will unravel how the cell metabolism of embryonic stem cells is regulating differentiation, maturation and aging of cardiomyocytes as well as endothelial cells in newly formed blood vessels. The student in this project will learn to differentiate cardiac cells and blood vessels from pluripotent stem cells and will analyze their cellular function. He/she will investigate how the interplay between glycolysis and fatty acid oxidation regulates cardiovascular differentiation.
