Mayo Clinic research discovers how stem cells repair damage from heart attacks
Mayo Clinic researchers have uncovered stem cell-activated mechanisms of healing after a heart attack. Stem cells restored cardiac muscle back to its condition before the heart attack, in turn providing a blueprint of how stem cells may work. The study, published in NPJ Regenerative Medicine, finds that human cardiopoietic cells zero in on damaged proteins to reverse […]

Sudden Cardiac Death: Defining the Risk for Surviving Relatives
Article by Barbara Toman A young person’s sudden death from cardiac arrest is doubly devastating. Just when family members are mourning the unexpected loss, they might also be wondering if tArhe cause was inherited heart disease — and if they too are at risk. Often there’s no easy answer. Unlike certain cancers with strong links […]
