Stem cell study in mice offers hope for treating heart attack patients
A UCSF stem cell study conducted in mice suggests a novel strategy for treating damaged cardiac tissue in patients following a heart attack. The approach potentially could improve cardiac function, minimize scar size, lead to the development of new blood vessels and avoid the risk of tissue rejection....
