When a patient is experiencing heart failure, a leading cause of death worldwide, they begin to lose healthy and functioning cardiac cells. Heart failure causes these once-flexible cells to develop ...

An international research team, coordinated by academics from the University of Bologna and the IRCCS—Policlinico Sant'Orsola Hospital, has identified a key growth factor capable of exerting a ...

Can the heart physiology of zebrafish help treat human heart conditions? This is what a recent study published in Biology Open hopes to address as a team of researchers from the University of Utah ...

An international research team, coordinated by academics from the University of Bologna and the IRCCS - Policlinico Sant’Orsola Hospital, has identified a key growth factor capable of exerting a ...

A new review published in Genes & Diseases highlights macrophage-targeted therapy as a promising frontier in cardiac regeneration and myocardial repair. The findings underscore the critical role of ...

For many patients who survive a heart attack, recovery is only the beginning. Structural and functional changes in the heart ...

Two commonly used FDA-approved antibiotics have been shown to induce mammalian cardiomyocyte proliferation and heart regeneration. Through a mixture of biochemical and computational screening, ...

New York: A global team of researchers has reported a groundbreaking discovery in cardiac regeneration that offers new hope ...

A heart attack will leave a permanent scar on a human heart, yet other animals, including some fish and amphibians, can clear cardiac scar tissue and regrow damaged muscle as adults. Scientists have ...

Regenerative heart therapies involve transplanting cardiac muscle cells into damaged areas of the heart to recover lost function. However, the risk of arrhythmias following this procedure is ...
