Description

Meng Chen and colleagues review human heart organoids from construction to drug testing. Their review from twenty twenty-five covers lab-grown miniature hearts. Drug heart toxicity stalls many medicines and endangers patients. Better human-like models could catch toxic drugs earlier.

Stem cell organoids now mimic heart structure and beating function. Three strategies build disease versions of these organoids. Patient cells, gene edits, and environment tweaks each model different illnesses. The review joins building methods with evaluation uses. Changing drug regulations also shape how models get accepted. A single framework links construction, disease modelling, and testing. Pharmaceutical screening may shift from animals toward these models.
