iCell-Cardiomyocytes2 (Fujifilm Cellular Dynamics Inc., Madison, WI, United States) were seeded into 96 well-plates (Greiner Bio One, ref. 655946) according to the manufacturer instructions, at a density of 50 k cells/well. Seven days after seeding, the hiPSC-CMs were used to assess cytotoxic effects of doxorubicin, captopril and sunitinib. To assess effects on viability and cytotoxicity, two assay combination kits were used: 1) RealTime-Glo™ Annexin V Apoptosis and Necrosis Assay [Promega, JA1011 (Kupcho et al., 2019 (link))] and 2) ApoLive-Glo Multiplex Assay [Promega, G6410 (Flörkemeier et al., 2022 (link))]. The assays were performed according to manufacturer instructions. The experiments were repeated at 24, 48, and 72 h in order to assess any time-dependent change in live cells or activation of cell-death pathways.
