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 ...

Mount Sinai's Cardiovascular Research Institute is sending bioengineered human heart muscle cells and micro-tissues into space for the first time on NASA's 29 th SpaceX commercial resupply services ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Diabetes has long been treated as a disease of blood sugar, but a growing body of research suggests it is also a disease of ...

In a Liv Hospital study, stem cell therapy improved heart function dramatically using MSCs and EVs, despite a blocked graft.

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 ...
