Researchers at the Institute of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Toronto have demonstrated a new way to monitor ...

In research, induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells are derived from skin, urine, or blood samples and developed into other cells, like heart tissue, that researchers want to study. Because of the ...

The role of miR-92a-3p in the ethanol-induced apoptosis of H9c2 cardiomyocytes remains unclear. In this study, we explored the role of miR-92a-3p in the ethanol-induced apoptosis of H9c2 ...

Sequencing the microRNA in vesicles only found in cardiac macrophages illuminates their role in blood vessel formation.

Dr. Fernanda Cristina Paccola Mesquita’s scientific journey has been driven by a profound curiosity about how the human heart develops, repairs itself, and ultimately fails in disease. Early in her ...

In a large-animal model study, researchers have found that heart attack recovery is aided by injection of heart muscle cell spheroids derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells, or hiPSCs, that ...

Novo Nordisk A/S terminated its global licensing deal with Japan’s Heartseed Inc. for its allogeneic induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived cardiomyocytes.
