Scientists have developed the first functional pacemaker cells from human stem cells, paving the way for alternate, biological pacemaker therapy. Scientists from the McEwen Centre for Regenerative ...

The very first functional pacemaker cells created out of human stem cells have been developed by scientists from the McEwen Centre for Regenerative Medicine, at Toronto, Canada. To date ...

Scientists have successfully transformed guinea-pig heart-muscle cells into pacemaker cells, paving the way for a biological alternative to artificial pacemakers. Pacemaker cells generate ...

Scientists at the Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute have successfully reprogrammed ordinary heart cells to become exact replicas of so-called “pacemaker” heart cells. Such replica cells could ...

Now, a team of researchers at the Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute in Los Angeles have managed to transform regular heart cells in pigs into pacemaker cells – cells that naturally keep the heart’s ...

Scientists from the McEwen Centre for Regenerative Medicine, University Health Network, have developed the first functional pacemaker cells from human stem cells, paving the way for alternate, ...

A New York-based team of researchers explored the impact of SARS-CoV-2 infection on the pacemaker cells of the heart. To do this, they used both a hamster model and human embryonic stem cell (ESC ...

Pacemaker cells in the sinoatrial node control heart rate, but what controls the ticking of these pacemaker cells? New research by Angelo Torrente and his colleagues of the M.E. Mangoni group's ...

but we are reprogramming a normal cell to transform it into a pacemaker cell," said Eugenio Cingolani, MD, director of the Cardiogenetics-Familial Arrhythmia Clinic at Cedars Sinai Medical Center ...

Instead of using near-field communication to supply power, the new pacemaker operates through the action of a galvanic cell, a simple battery that transforms chemical energy into electrical energy.

“The mechanism of activating and suppressing pacemaker cell genes is not clear, especially in humans,” noted Kazumasa Kanemaru, PhD, a postdoctoral fellow in the gene expression genomics team ...

A dissolvable pacemaker that’s smaller than a grain ... device’s near-field communication power source with a galvanic cell—a type of battery that converts chemical energy into electrical ...
