Abstract
Researchers have demonstrated that a stem cell-derived heart muscle patch can safely remuscularize failing hearts.1 Published in Nature, the study shows successful long-term cardiac integration of a patch in a primate model and a human patient with no adverse effects. This breakthrough marks a major step toward regenerative therapies for advanced heart failure.
期刊介绍:
Cell Stem Cell is a comprehensive journal covering the entire spectrum of stem cell biology. It encompasses various topics, including embryonic stem cells, pluripotency, germline stem cells, tissue-specific stem cells, differentiation, epigenetics, genomics, cancer stem cells, stem cell niches, disease models, nuclear transfer technology, bioengineering, drug discovery, in vivo imaging, therapeutic applications, regenerative medicine, clinical insights, research policies, ethical considerations, and technical innovations. The journal welcomes studies from any model system providing insights into stem cell biology, with a focus on human stem cells. It publishes research reports of significant importance, along with review and analysis articles covering diverse aspects of stem cell research.
