Study shows that cardiac spheroids, derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells, can be easily transported and injected into damaged areas of the heart to promote its regeneration and recovery ...

Anatomically, cardiac rupture occurs at the intersection between injured and healthy cardiac tissue. This region is referred to as the borderzone. The conventional view is that increased mechanical ...

Researchers have harnessed a combination of lab-grown cells to regenerate damaged heart muscle. The study addresses major challenges of using heart muscle cells, called cardiomyocytes, grown from stem ...

Elizabeth Cooney is a cardiovascular disease reporter at STAT, covering heart, stroke, and metabolic conditions. You can reach Liz on Signal at LizC.22. By its name and nature, heart failure doesn’t ...

This story is from The Pulse, a weekly health and science podcast. Find it on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. To Sian Harding, the heart is a “marvel of construction”. The ...

The adult mammalian heart bears limited regenerative capacity, resulting in the irreversible loss of cardiomyocytes post-cardiac injury, and often culminating in end-stage heart failure. Cardiomyocyte ...

Researchers at TalTech have concluded that a lack of creatine does not cause heart failure, contrary to previous assumptions. However, their surprising discoveries about heart muscle cells could lead ...

A recent study has demonstrated what a first-of-its-kind integrated map of heart cells can reveal about cardiac fibrosis. Researchers at the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute (Darlinghurst, ...
