FDSS/mu Cell is a high-speed acquisition imaging platform (Hamamatsu Ltd., Hamamatsu, Japan) that allows for simultaneous high-throughput reading under controlled conditions. We evaluated the Ca2+ transients or optical membrane potential changes of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) (iCells) in the presence or absence of 44 pharmacological agents known to interfere with cardiac ion channels (e.g., hERG, IKs, NaV1.5, CaV1.2). We tested two Ca2+-sensitive fluorescence dyes (Codex ACTOne (R) and EarlyTox (R)) and a membrane potential dye (FLIPR (R) membrane potential dye). Wewere able to quantify and report drug-induced early-after depolarizations (EAD)-like waveforms, cardiomyocyte ectopic beats and changes in beating rate froma subgroup of pharmacological agents acting acutely (within a 1-hour period). Cardiovascular drugs, such as dofetilide and D,L-sotalol, exhibited EAD-like signals at 3nMand 10 mu M, respectively. CNS drugs, such as haloperidol and sertindole, exhibited EAD-like signals and ectopic beats at 30 nMand 1 mu M, respectively. Other drugs, such as astemizole, solifenacin, andmoxifloxacin, exhibited similar arrhythmias at 30 nM, 3 mu Mand 300 mu M, respectively. Our data suggest that the membrane potential and intracellular Ca2+ signal are tightly coupled, supporting the idea that the EAD-like signals reported are the accurate representation of an EAD signal of the cardiac action potential. Finally, the EAD-like Ca2+ signal waswell correlated to clinically-relevant concentrationswhere Torsade de Pointes (TdPs) arrhythmiaswere noted in healthy volunteers treated orallywith some of the compounds we tested, as reported in PharmaPendium (R).
