A broken heart will mend over time. However, this isn’t the case for heart tissue following a heart attack. While skin and many other tissues of the body retain the ability to repair themselves after ...

In a large-animal model study, researchers have found that heart attack recovery is aided by the injection of heart muscle ...

Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists who arranged for 48 human bioengineered heart tissue samples to spend 30 days at the International Space Station report evidence that the low gravity conditions in ...

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 ...

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 ...

University of Alabama at Birmingham researchers, led by Jianyi “Jay” Zhang, M.D., Ph.D., and Lei Ye, M.D., Ph.D., generated the human leukocyte antigen-knockout ...
