A research team at the University of California San Diego has discovered a novel and promising method of treating arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM), a rare inherited heart disease that can strike ...

For decades, cardiology textbooks treated heart damage as permanent, a grim one-way street from heart attack to heart failure. A wave of new research is now overturning that assumption, revealing that ...

The framework of CASHeart. (A) Overview of the data collection and data processing workflow in the CASHeart Database. (B) Introduction to the main interfaces of the CASHeart website. The human heart ...

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 ...

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 ...

Japanese researchers have transplanted human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) in a primate model of myocardial infarction and were able to restore heart muscle and function in monkeys. Developed ...

AN INTERNATIONAL team of scientists have provided new insight into the Frank-Starling mechanism; a fundamental aspect of human heart function. The Frank-Starling mechanism described more than a ...

The thought of spaceflight may make the heart skip a beat, but actually travelling beyond Earth could alter the organ’s cells. With extended stays aboard the International Space Station (ISS) ...

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 ...
