TAB2 deficiency induces dilated cardiomyopathy by promoting mitochondrial calcium overload in human iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes by Wenrui Sun, Jianchao Zhang, Shuang Li, Wanrong Fu, Yangyang Liu, Mengduan Liu, Jianzeng Dong, Xiaoyan Zhao, Xiaowei Li

“…TAB2-deficient hiPSC-CMs were found to develop phenotypic features of DCM, such as distorted sarcomeric ultrastructure, decreased contractility and energy production, and mitochondrial damage at day 30 post differentiation. Paradoxically, TAB2 knockout cell lines showed abnormal calcium handling after 40 days, later than reduced contractility, suggesting that the main cause of impaired contractility was abnormal energy production due to mitochondrial damage. …”
