A naturally occurring gene called Cyclin A2 ( CCNA2 ), which turns off after birth in humans, can actually make new, functioning heart cells and help the heart repair itself from injury including a ...

If cancer is a disease of overabundance, where cells divide without restraint and tumors grow despite the body's best interests, then degenerative diseases are disorders of deprivation. When ...

If cancer is a disease of overabundance, where cells divide without restraint and tumors grow despite the body's best interests, then degenerative diseases are disorders of deprivation.

Heart failure (HF) has long been blamed on weakened heart muscle cells, but new research shows that support cells called fibroblasts may be a key factor. Researchers found that fibroblasts send ...
