Scientists have moved a step closer to creating functioning heart tissue for transplants in the lab.
They have grown three types of human heart cells from cultures derived from embryonic stem cells. When a mix of the cells was transplanted into mice with simulated heart disease, the animals' heart function was significantly improved. The study, by a team of Canadian, US and UK scientists, features in the journal Nature. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/7361250.stm |
