This research used a pig model of heart attacks. In a large-animal model study, researchers have found that heart attack recovery is aided by injection of heart muscle cell spheroids derived from ...

The pig cardiomyocyte cells also showed upregulation of three signaling pathways—the Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase pathway, the HIPPO/YAP pathway and the Transforming Growth Factor Β pathway.

Injecting infarcted pig hearts with specially bioengineered cells significantly decreased the infarct area and improved heart function, showing possible clinical relevance. University of Alabama at ...

Injecting infarcted pig hearts with specially bioengineered cells significantly decreased the infarct area and improved heart function, showing possible clinical relevance “It is widely ...

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

These improvements were due to a surprising finding — proliferation of endogenous heart muscle cells in the pig hearts. This is particularly noteworthy because shortly after birth mammalian heart ...

PPL Therapeutics (Edinburgh, UK), the company that, along with the Roslin Institute, cloned Dolly the sheep, announced on March 14 that it had created the first pigs cloned from adult cells.

The FDA recently approved a bioengineered blood vessel, which becomes part of a patient’s body over time. It’s designed to ...
