Cellular scaffold is extremely important for cellular differentiation. To find efficient method to induce cardiac differentiation of stem cells, we tested several scaffold proteins using two dimensional (2D) and three dimensional (3D) cell culture systems. It is suggested that specific proteins such as vitronectin are necessary for 2D adhesion of stem cells and their cardiac differentiation. Also suggested is that fibroblast may play an essential role in forming 3D structure of cardiac tissue.
