In humans, a specialized mRNA translation circuit predetermines the competence for heart formation at an early stage of embryonic development, a research team at the Center for Molecular Medicine ...

Scientists at the Institute of Molecular Biotechnology (IMBA) of the Austrian Academy of Sciences have developed a multi-chamber organoid that mirrors the heart’s intricate structure. The human ...

An advanced human heart organoid system can be used to model embryonic heart development under pregestational diabetes-like conditions, researchers report. The organoids recapitulate hallmarks of ...

Researchers at the UNC School of Medicine, UNC McAllister Heart Institute, and the UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center characterized the expression of thousands of cardiac proteins during eight ...

Heart disease kills 18 million people each year, but the development of new therapies faces a bottleneck: no physiological model of the entire human heart exists -- so far. A new multi-chamber ...

Researchers have developed a new software tool that provides unprecedented capabilities to see inside 3D images. Its interactive, dynamic cutaway views allowed them to analyze never-before-seen ...
