Myocardial infarction remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Following an infarction, part of the heart muscle ...

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 ...

When approved, they will be the world’s first practical medicines containing iPS cells, which can be re-engineered into other ...

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 ...

The groundbreaking study has raised hopes for regenerative therapies that may one day help repair damaged hearts and even ...

Thirty marks the spot. Starting at this age, we begin to lose approximately three to eight percent of muscle mass per decade. With it, we also lose strength and mobility. Left unaddressed, this loss ...

Muscle stem cells, which are crucial for building new muscle, don’t work as well as we get older, but giving them an ...

Cancer cells travel through the blood like restless seeds, searching for places to take root. Yet one organ they almost never ...
