Renowned visionary English physician William Harvey wrote in 1651 about how our blood contains all the secrets of life. “And so I conclude that blood lives and is nourished of itself and in no way ...
University of California San Diego-led team has discovered that restoring a key cardiac protein called connexin‑43 in a mouse ...
A new gene therapy can reverse the effects of heart failure and restore heart function in a large animal model. The therapy increases the amount of blood the heart can pump and dramatically improves ...
Panelists discuss how ARNIs like sacubitril-valsartan provide superior outcomes compared with ACE inhibitors in HFrEF (20% reduction in cardiovascular events, 16% mortality reduction), with broad FDA ...
Researchers at the Nora Eccles Harrison Cardiovascular Research and Training Institute, University of Utah, and the University of Utah School of Medicine, have demonstrated that a gene therapy can ...
Heart failure has historically been irreversible, but the outcome of a new study suggests that could someday change. At the University of Utah, scientists used a new gene therapy that was shown to ...
In diseased hearts, low-dose radiation therapy appears to improve heart function. Cardiologists and radiation oncologists at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis pioneered the use of ...
A new gene therapy can reverse the effects of heart failure and restore heart function in a large animal model. The therapy increases the amount of blood the heart can pump and dramatically improves ...
Panelists discuss their excitement about the evolution of heart failure as a distinct specialty with multiple effective therapeutic options, the convergence of previously siloed medical disciplines ...
But all four pigs that received the gene therapy in their heart cells survived for six months, the endpoint of the study. Importantly, the treatment didn't just prevent heart failure from worsening.
