A study led by Maria Carmo-Fonseca at GIMM has helped clarify one of the main limitations of lab-grown heart cells, which are ...

Researchers at the Nora Eccles Harrison Cardiovascular Research and Training Institute, University of Utah, and the University of Utah School of Medicine, have demonstrated that a gene therapy can ...

Lower cardiac output has been tied to poorer cerebral blood flow (CBF) in the temporal lobes of older adults without heart failure, a finding that adds to a growing body of research linking heart ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature, a large team of researchers from the United States (U.S.) used single-cell ribonucleic acid (RNA) sequencing combined with high-resolution ...

New research from Karolinska Institutet and Columbia University shows that the heart has a mini-brain – its own nervous system that controls the heartbeat. A better understanding of this system, which ...

A new gene therapy can reverse the effects of heart failure and restore heart function in a large animal model. The therapy increases the amount of blood the heart can pump and dramatically improves ...

Diabetes has long been treated as a disease of blood sugar, but a growing body of research suggests it is also a disease of ...

An international research team has uncovered a new insight into human evolution by comparing humans' hearts with those of other great apes. An international research team from Swansea University and ...

Developing new drugs is one of the riskiest and most expensive endeavors in science. Today, The Jackson Laboratory (JAX) announced a bold initiative to improve that trajectory, powered by an up to $30 ...

Researchers focused on Myotonic Dystrophy 1 heart problems are testing a novel approach to restore normal function. Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1 (DM1) is the most common adult-onset form of muscular ...
