Abstract Background Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) affect 2–8% of pregnancies and are associated postpartum with increased cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk, although mechanisms are poorly understood. Methods Human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC)-derived cardiomyocytes, cardiac fibroblasts and coronary artery endothelial cells were cocultured to form cardiac spheroids (CSs) in collagen type-1 hydrogels containing 10% patient plasma collected five years postpartum [n = 5 per group: normotensive control, gestational hypertension (GH) and preeclampsia (PE)]. Plasma-treated CSs were assessed for cell viability and contractile function and subjected to immunofluorescence staining and imaging. A quantitative proteomic analysis of plasma samples was conducted (controls n = 21; GH n = 5; PE n = 12). Results Contraction frequency (CF) was increased in PE-treated CSs (CF: 45.5 ± 3.4 contractions/minute, p |
