This unexpected ability opens the door for scientists to stimulate cellular mitosis and improve heart function after an attack.

New evidence reveals adult human hearts can regrow muscle cells after myocardial infarction, opening new possibilities for ...

Injecting infarcted pig hearts with specially bioengineered cells significantly decreased the infarct area and improved heart function, showing possible clinical relevance “It is widely acknowledged ...

In a large-animal model study, researchers have found that heart attack recovery is aided by injection of heart muscle cell spheroids derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells, or hiPSCs, that ...

Reintroduction of the Cyclin A2 gene enables adult human cardiomyocytes to divide, producing functional daughter cells and promoting heart repair. The therapy uses a replication-deficient adenoviral ...

Study reveals how an RNA enzyme drives the postnatal switch from glucose to fatty acids in heart cells, highlighting ketogenesis as essential for metabolism. Study: The tRNA methyltransferase Mettl1 ...

Scientists obtained stem cells expressing cardiac muscle-specific genes and proteins. The cells displayed regular rhythmic contractions similar to a heart, confirming that they were functional ...
