    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for preparing a clinically applicable, safe and less damaged cardiomyocyte population through a brief and simple procedure from a cell population obtained by induced differentiation of pluripotent stem cells into cardiomyocytes. The present invention relates to a method for preparing a cardiomyocyte population, the method comprising the steps of: (1) inducing pluripotent stem cells to differentiate into cardiomyocytes, (2) bringing a cell population obtained by the induced differentiation into contact with a laminin selected from the group consisting of laminin α2β1γ1, laminin α2β2γ1, laminin α1β1γ1 and laminin α1β2γ1, or a fragment thereof having integrin binding activity, and (3) retrieving cells adherent to the laminin or the laminin fragment.

    Abstract: Method for evaluating cardiomyocytes using Raman scattering: a Raman spectrum of cardiomyocytes artificially induced to differentiate from pluripotent stem cells is acquired, an intensity of Raman-scattered light for a protein containing at least one of heme b and heme c as a prosthetic group is acquired from the Raman spectrum, and a state of progress of maturation of the cardiomyocytes is evaluated on the basis of the intensity of the Raman-scattered light. Method for evaluating differentiation into cardiomyocytes using Raman scattering: cells which are pluripotent stem cells are artificially induced to differentiate into cardiomyocytes, a Raman spectrum of the cells induced to differentiate is acquired, an intensity of Raman-scattered light for at least one of heme b and heme c is acquired from the Raman spectrum, and a state of progress of differentiation of the cells into cardiomyocytes is evaluated on the basis of the intensity of the Raman-scattered light.

    Abstract: The present inventors have found that HMGB1 fragment peptides having a particular amino acid sequence exhibit the effects of improvement of cardiac function, inhibition of cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, inhibition of myocardial fibrosis, and promotion of angiogenesis in an animal model of dilated cardiomyopathy, that the particular HMGB1 fragment peptides also exhibit the effects of improvement of cardiac function, inhibition of cardiomegaly, inhibition of cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, inhibition of myocardial fibrosis, and promotion of angiogenesis in an animal model of ischemic cardiomyopathy caused by old myocardial infarction, and that the particular HMGB1 fragment peptides exhibit the effects of inhibition of cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and inhibition of myocardial fibrosis in an animal model of hypertensive cardiomyopathy. Based on these findings, pharmaceutical compositions are provided for the prevention and/or treatment of cardiomyopathy and old myocardial infarction and chronic heart failure resulting therefrom, which comprise an HMGB1 fragment peptide having a particular amino acid sequence.
