A heart can never rest. That creates a problem for a heart that has lost muscle tissue. “Skeletal muscle has a significant ...

Researchers at the University of Toronto's Institute of Biomedical Engineering have found that studying blood flow in leg ...

Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have identified a potential breakthrough in the fight ...

This is an important and solid study that examines the role of TFAM, a protein that helps maintain mtDNA, in mtDNA mutator mice. The authors have demonstrated that TFAM's counteractive role in mtDNA ...

Microplastics pose a threat to heart health, causing harmful changes in vascular cells and increasing the risk of ...

A new biological patch, designed from heart cells grown in the laboratory, could bring a glimmer of hope in the treatment of ...

Sheets of lab-grown muscle are being tested as a radical new treatment for heart attacks and heart failure. Promising results from two of the first patients to get the treatment suggest that the ...

The research team also developed a computational model that could predict tissue shape-morphing behavior. “Our research shows that by allowing bioprinted heart tissues to undergo shape-morphing, they ...

The findings revealed an increased presence and co-localization of cytotoxic T cells, conventional dendritic cells, and inflammatory fibroblasts in myocarditis-affected heart tissue. Meanwhile, blood ...

F-FAPI PET -- can detect the first signs of tissue remodeling in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), providing physicians with an early marker for disease progression. This approach ...

A new molecular imaging technique— 18 F-FAPI PET—can detect the first signs of tissue ... heart and pulmonary artery of patients decreased, suggesting the potential reversibility of fibroblast ...
