Within the framework of the European CARDIOPATCH project, partners from Spain, France and Portugal have developed a novel patch to repair damaged heart tissue using regenerative medicine.
Cardiovascular and circulatory system diseases such as myocardial infarction are the number one cause of death in the world. Its treatment is one of the main challenges for the scientific community, since the most frequent procedures, such as device implantation or cardiac resynchronization, do not … + read more
Partial reprogramming opens a new path in tissue regeneration
The transient expression of Yamanaka factors in hepatocytes increases the regenerative capacity of the liver and prevents liver failure. + read more
MicroRNAs hold the key to cardiac repair
A preclinical study indicates that the regenerative capacity of neonatal cells is mediated by these molecules. + read more
Stem cell exosomes from adipose tissue reduce cardiac damage following heart attack
They promote migration and proliferation of microvascular endothelial cells and inhibit cadiomyocyte apoptosis in an animal model. + read more
Hypoxia increases the therapeutic potential of mesenchymal stem cells
