Abstract (original English)

DNA demethylation agent 5-azacytidine has been widely described in literature as an effective chemical stimulus used to promote cardiomyogenic differentiation in various cell types, ranging from embryonic stem cells, P19 cells, bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells, and recently to adipose-derived stem cells. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of 5-azacytidine on human adipose precursor cell differentiation along the cardiomyogenic lineage.

What this study does not prove
