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 ...

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

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.

The researchers found a way around this problem: Create new pacemaker cells in a different part of the heart. The therapy centers around a gene called TBX18, which is known as a transcription ...

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

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, ...

To study SARS-CoV-2’s effects on pacemaker cells in more detail and with human cells, the researchers showed that the induced human pacemaker cells express the receptor ACE2 and other factors ...

Pacemaker cells in the sinoatrial node control heart rate, but what controls the ticking of these pacemaker cells? New research reveals, for the first time, a critical functional interaction ...

GUADALAJARA, Mexico — "Somatic reprogramming is a strategy in which we are not modifying a single part of the cell, but we are reprogramming a normal cell to transform it into a pacemaker cell ...

The world’s tiniest pacemaker — smaller than a grain of rice — could help save babies born with heart defects, say scientists. The miniature device can be inserted with a syringe and ...

Unexpectedly, this tool identified that pacemaker cells express the target of certain medications, such as GLP1 drugs, which are used for diabetes and weight loss and are known to increase the ...

A dissolvable pacemaker that’s smaller than a grain of rice and powered by light could become an invaluable tool for saving the lives of newborn infants., The device can […] Search for: Science ...
