But now, a new study led by a researcher at the University of Arizona is offering fresh hope. The team discovered that some ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have discovered that the heart's own contractions trigger biological signals that guide the formation of a functional beating heart. Their study in zebrafish ...

Researchers from Emory University studying how heart muscle cells grow and function in a space environment found that spaceflight increases the expression of genes involved in stress response and cell ...

Artistic representation of heart regeneration: Hmga1 in green symbolically flows from the border zone of a zebrafish heart (top right) to the injured border zone of a mouse heart (left). Red ...

Heart muscle cells grown from patient stem cells—known as human induced pluripotent stem cell–derived cardiomyocytes, or hiPSC-CMs—are a promising way to repair hearts damaged by heart attacks and ...

The Department of Health and Human Services is tapping the Jackson Laboratory to expand testing using lab-grown cells and artificial intelligence, following the lab's acquisition of the New York Stem ...

In developing hearts, cells shuffle around, bumping into each other to find their place, and the stakes are high: pairing with the wrong cell could mean the difference between a beating heart and one ...

New research from Karolinska Institutet in Sweden and Columbia University in the United States has revealed something ...

MSU researchers have created the first human heart-like “organoids” that enable the study of atrial fibrillation, or A-fib. The models also enable new ways of evaluating heart development, diseases ...

Researchers have identified the origin of cardiac cells using 3D images of a heart forming in real-time, inside a living mouse embryo. Researchers at UCL and the Francis Crick Institute have, for the ...

Researchers created lab-made heart cells for "Body on a Chip" project. — -- Science fiction became reality after researchers from Wake Forrest University say they managed to turn stem cells into ...

Every 40 seconds, someone in the United States has a heart attack. Most survive, but at a cost. In the aftermath, the heart cells often stiffen in a process called myocardial fibrosis, a hidden ...
