With support from the National Institutes of Health, a University of Texas at Arlington bioengineering professor is ...
Scientists develop a microneedle bandage for cardiac tissue regeneration using the mussel adhesive protein (MAP). Damaged cardiac wall is regenerated by delivering biofunctional peptides to the ...
Damaged human heart muscle cannot be regenerated. Scar tissue grows in place of the damaged muscle cells. Scientists are seeking to restore complete cardiac function with the help of artificial ...
A 3D-printed "bio-bot" powered by skeletal muscle tissue could give robots more precise control over its movements.
They're growing viable heart tissue in the lab to create a small patch of cardiac muscle from the patient's own cells. The patch can be transplanted directly into a heart to repair damage or ...
The problem with scar tissue on the heart is the fact that, unlike regular cardiac muscle tissue, it can't expand and contract.
Microparticles can aid in the delivery of microRNA, leading to the proliferation of cardiomyocytes, which are cells that make up cardiac muscle, leading to tissue regeneration.
A new biomaterial delivered to the heart soon after a heart attack can heal damaged tissue from the inside out. Heart attacks kill cardiac muscle tissue, scarring the heart and leaving permanent ...
Science News: Researchers have identified a crucial growth factor, BMP7, capable of stimulating cardiac muscle cell proliferation and regeneration, potentially offe ...
UTA professors 3D print heart patch to support cardiac care, in an attempt to one day regenerate damaged cardiac muscle.
These include muscle cells called cardiomyocytes, which contract together to give hearts their beats, and connective cells called cardiac fibroblasts, which provide support.
Researchers get cardiac muscle cells to grow, repair heart attack damage Massive search finds micro RNAs that help the heart regrow.
