Cardiac muscle tissue, or myocardium, contains cells that expand and contract in response to electrical impulses from the nervous system. These cardiac cells work together to produce the rhythmic ...

The concept of an intrinsic regenerative capacity of the adult mammalian myocardium owing to the presence of cardiac stem cells (CSCs) in the atria and ventricles is starting to be accepted by the ...

Heart muscle cells grown from stem cells show promise in monkeys with a heart problem that typically results from a heart defect sometimes present at birth in humans, according to new research from ...

In addition, we speculate that the quantity of troponin release may in part be related to the extent of contact between the right ventricular coil and the myocardium. Our sample size is far too ...

Myocardial fibrosis is a key process for heart failure development that may lead to severe phenotypes, including cardiac ...
