cardiovascular disease

After a heart attack, the damage is permanent — for now. Researchers are testing innovative ways to get the heart to regenerate muscle cells and fix itself.

Researchers revealed a connection between age-related Y chromosome gene loss and increased heart scarring in men.

Researchers harvest stem cells from patients who have recently had a heart attack and use them to trigger regeneration of their cardiac muscle.

Researchers developed a nanopore platform that detects a range of biomarkers at the same time, paving the way for more precise liquid biopsies.

As an alternative to daily pills, a new RNAi drug could lower blood pressure with a twice-yearly injection.

Inhibiting a single protein may prevent cardiovascular complications in patients with chronic kidney disease.

With some out-of-the-box engineering, researchers have developed a nature-inspired strategy to turn sugar in packaged foods into gut-healthy fiber.

Scientists developed a way to probe single cell transcriptomic data to find drugs that target cells of interest and to identify cells targeted by specific drugs.

Researchers found that male and female mouse hearts respond differently to stress by monitoring chemical and electrical signaling simultaneously for the first time.

Inhibitors that target gut microbial enzymes are likely the key to treating a variety of cardiovascular diseases, some of which have no other cure.
