In research, induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells are derived from skin, urine, or blood samples and developed into other cells, like heart tissue, that researchers want to study. Because of the ...

The next time you train, remember: You’re not just building endurance. You’re upgrading your heart's software. You're ...

The role of miR-92a-3p in the ethanol-induced apoptosis of H9c2 cardiomyocytes remains unclear. In this study, we explored the role of miR-92a-3p in the ethanol-induced apoptosis of H9c2 ...

Dr. Fernanda Cristina Paccola Mesquita’s scientific journey has been driven by a profound curiosity about how the human heart develops, repairs itself, and ultimately fails in disease. Early in her ...

Scientists obtained stem cells expressing cardiac muscle-specific genes and proteins. The cells displayed regular rhythmic contractions similar to a heart, confirming that they were functional ...

Novo Nordisk A/S terminated its global licensing deal with Japan’s Heartseed Inc. for its allogeneic induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived cardiomyocytes.

The results of a study by researchers at the International Centre for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology (ICGEB) suggest ...
