Millions of people around the world die from heart failure every year. In future, a laboratory-grown heart patch could help with severe cases of cardiovascular disease, say scientists behind a ...

Despite being mainly composed of terminally differentiated myocytes that cannot re-enter the cell cycle, the heart is not a postmitotic organ and maintains some capacity to form new parenchymal ...

These shape-morphing behaviours are essential for sculpting heart cell development and maturation. The University of Galway research team recognised this and developed a novel bioprinting ...

Eating foods high in key nutrients, including iron, folic acid, and vitamin B12, and limiting alcohol may help increase your red blood cell count ... to the National Heart, Lung, and Blood ...

A team of researchers led by Emory's Chunhui Xu recently found that heart muscle cells can grow -and survive in the microgravity environment of space. Her findings, published in Biomaterials ...

In 2009 a team of biophysicists led by Anthony A. Hyman of the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics in Dresden, Germany, were studying specklelike structures called P ...

A heart surgeon has revealed the simple at-home test that could reveal the symptoms of one of Britain's biggest killers. In a clip posted to TikTok, US-based cardiothoracic surgeon Dr Jeremy ...

The association between red cell distribution width—albumin ratio (RAR) and the risk of all-cause mortality in intensive care unit (ICU) patients with heart failure remains uncertain. This study aimed ...

To develop the new method, the team first engineered an array of nanoscale, needle-shaped electrodes. These electrodes, each up to 200 times smaller than a single heart muscle cell, are made of ...
