A new antibody treatment prevents cholesterol buildup in heart mitochondria and restores energy production, offering hope for ...

repairing injured cells and improving heart function. The study may lead to a treatment that can regenerate heart muscle damaged by a lack of oxygen. Cardiac ischemia occurs when the heart muscle ...

Only cardiac muscle tissue, comprising cells called myocytes, is present in the heart. In this article, we discuss the structure and function of cardiac muscle tissue. We also cover medical ...

A cluster of cells in the center of the heart between ... How long can you live with 20% heart function? One measurement of how much blood your heart pumps out per beat is the ejection fraction ...

the organization and function of the cardiac structures and how they interact with one another remain poorly understood. In the present study, the researchers used a single-cell RNA sequencing ...

A new lab-grown material has revealed that some of the effects of aging in the heart may be slowed and even reversed. The ...

Although cardiac function improved in the monkeys ... after they injected monkey hearts with cardiomyocytes derived from human embryonic stem cells. The researchers also observed non-fatal arrhythmias ...

Plasmalogens make up about 15% of cell membranes—the outer layer of cells—and are predominantly found in the brain and heart.

Patient heart cells cultured in a dish tend to de-differentiate –– or lose their primary function and fail to beat. Ideally, you want to take samples of a patient's heart just after disease ...

BACKGROUND: Cardiac hypertrophy, as an important pathological change, contributes to heart failure. Recent studies indicate that the mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membranes (MAMs) play ...

analyzing single-cell gene expression to understand fibrosis progression. By understanding more about cardiac fibrosis, researchers hope to develop targeted drugs that can prevent this permanent scar ...
