And this makes our heart muscle cells flash green every time they beat.
We took our cardiac muscle cells and we transplanted them into the hearts of rats that had been given experimental heart attacks.
And now when I looked through the microscope, I could see this fresh, young, human heart muscle growing back in the injured wall of this rat's heart.
The next question was: Will this new muscle beat in synchrony with the rest of the heart?
What you're seeing here is a zoomed-in view, a black-and-white image of a guinea pig's heart that was injured and then received three grafts of our human cardiac muscle.
Each of those is a needle track that contains a couple of million human cardiac muscle cells in it.
In other words, the guinea pig's natural pacemaker is calling the shots, and the human heart muscle cells are following in lockstep like good soldiers.
The macaque heart muscle is shown in red, and in blue, you see the scar tissue that results from the heart attack.
So as you look as this, you can see how there's a big deficiency in the muscle in part of the wall of the heart.
Again, you can see the monkey's heart muscle in red, but it's very hard to even see the blue scar tissue, and that's because we've been able to repopulate it with the human heart muscle, and so we've got this nice, plump wall.
I've showed you that we can take our stem cells and differentiate them into cardiac muscle.
These macaque studies also taught us that our human heart muscle cells created a period of electrical instability.
We've studied it extensively, and it turns out that it results from the fact that our cellular graphs are quite immature, and immature heart muscle cells all act like pacemakers.
But in every one of the animals that received a graft of human cardiac muscle cells, we see a substantial improvement in cardiac function.
Your great-great grandparents got by on muscle power, and yet we all think there's this huge power that's essential for our lifestyle.
In contrast to HUBO, the human body makes extensive use of soft and deformable materials such as muscle and skin.
My research group and collaborators around the world are using soft components inspired by muscle and skin to build robots with agility and dexterity that comes closer and closer to the astonishing capabilities of the organisms found in nature.
I've always been particularly inspired by biological muscle.
Biological muscle is a true masterpiece of evolution.
Not surprisingly, people have tried for many decades to replicate the astonishing capabilities of muscle, but it's been really hard.
About 10 years ago, when I did my PhD back in Austria, my colleagues and I rediscovered what is likely one of the very first publications on artificial muscle, published in 1880.
They can expand and contract like real muscle.
To create something that looks more like a muscle fiber, you can connect a few pouches together and attached a weight on one side.
It displaces the liquid, and it forces the muscle to contract.
We can also place a few such muscle fibers next to each other to create something that looks even more like a muscle that also contracts and expands in cross section.
Overall, HASELs show promise to become the first technology that matches or exceeds the performance of biological muscle while being compatible with large-scale manufacturing.
We have many ideas how to drastically improve performance, using new materials and new designs to reach a level of performance beyond biological muscle and also beyond traditional rigid electric motors.
We often blame lactic acid or running out of energy, but these factors alone don’t account for muscle fatigue.
To understand the roots of muscle fatigue, it helps to know how a muscle contracts in response to a signal from a nerve.
The motor neuron and the muscle cell are separated by a tiny gap, and the exchange of particles across this gap enables the contraction.
