Abstract
    Cardiotoxicity is one of the leading causes for drug failure. Compared with the western medicine, cardiotoxicity assessment of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM),which is composed of two or more ingredients, faces greater challenges. Human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CM) is equivalent to immature myocardial cells and can proliferate with impunity. It will bring revolutionary change to biomedicine. Based on database of PubMed and CNKI, this review aims to outline the recent progress made in high throughput screening assays for cardiotoxicity assessment and to discuss the potential applications of hiPSC-CM in innovative TCM drug discovery and safety reevaluation of TCM in market.
