A new clinical trial investigating the use of umbilical cord stem cells to treat chronic heart failure is currently underway. The Phase II trial, which is the first of its kind in the U.S., is being carried out by researchers at the University of Louisville. It’s also...
In a study first published in April’s edition of Advanced Functional Materials, researchers found that stem cells boost natural repair following cardiac arrest. The most common consequence of cardiac arrest is brain injury. Decreased blood flow and oxygen to the brain...
It was announced this week that researchers at the University of East London had managed to grow a “heart” using stem cells. This breakthrough could be instrumental in paving the way for life-saving research into heart disease treatments, with stem cells playing a...
A new study conducted by researchers at the Mayo Clinic has found that stem cell treatment for patients with advanced heart failure offers an improved quality of life. As many as 100,000 people are admitted to hospital in the UK every year due to heart attacks [1]....
