Decoding the cardiac cellular universe: primary cell resources for dissecting heart microenvironment-driven disease ...

Researchers have engineered human heart organoids complete with functioning valves, creating a physiologically relevant ...

Fibroblasts are an essential component of the heart, as they play key roles in its structure, development and response to cardiac damage. In this context, a recent study led by the University of ...

Researchers from the Centenary Institute and the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) have developed a human heart cell model demonstrating that the virus that causes COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) can ...

Researchers at the University of Toronto's Institute of Biomedical Engineering have developed a new method to mature lab-grown heart cells, so they more closely resemble adult human heart tissue. By ...

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 heart can create new routes for blood around blocked arteries. Researchers traced how these natural bypasses form in mice.

Researchers at the University Hospital of Bonn (UKB) and the University of Bonn have identified a previously unknown ...

Heart disease is the top cause of death in the United States, resulting in one in three deaths in 2023. In addition to being such a vital organ, the adult heart, unlike other parts of the body, cannot ...
