    Abstract: Described herein is a unique cell culture media that allows optimal growth of multiple cell types in the same system such as an organ-on-chip or organoid. Also described herein is use of the cell culture media in growing multiple cardiovascular cell types simultaneously in a single device or producing induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived cardiac organoids containing iPSC derived-endothelial cells (iPSC-ECs) and iPSC derived-cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs). In some embodiments, a formulation for the cell culture media includes a base medium including glucose, a pH indicator, salts, amino acids, and vitamins; recombinant human albumin; L-ascorbic acid 2-phosphate; and at least one or more of insulin, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), epidermal growth factor (EGF), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), a synthetic analogue of insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I, heparin, or hydrocortisone.

    Abstract: An isolated nucleic acid that includes the nucleotide sequence: CGUCCGAUGGUAGUGGGUUAUCAG (SEQ ID NO: 12) is provided. In some embodiment, the nucleic acid includes at least one chemically-modified nucleotide. The nucleic acid and composition containing same find use in treating conditions associated with inflammation and/or fibrosis, for example, without limitation, heart conditions, such as hypertrophic myocardiopathy, myocardial infarction, and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction; muscle disorders, such as muscular dystrophy; skin disorders, such as scleroderma; and inflammatory conditions, such as autoimmune conditions or inflammatory conditions associated with a viral infection.
