O corazón é un dos órganos menos rexenerativos do corpo humano: un factor importante para facer da insuficiencia cardíaca o asasino número un en todo o mundo. E se puidésemos axudar a que se rexenere o músculo cardíaco despois dunha lesión? O médico e científico Chuck Murry comparte a súa revolucionaria investigación sobre o uso de células nai para cultivar novas células do corazón, un emocionante paso adiante para facer realidade a prometedor uso das células nai como medicina.

Podemos rexenerar o músculo cardíaco con células nai?

Heart disease is the world's leading killer, claiming millions of lives each year and costing over $100 billion annually in the United States alone. The human heart cannot naturally regenerate after a heart attack, leaving patients with lasting damage and declining function. New research shows that pluripotent stem cells can be transformed into heart muscle and transplanted to repair the injured heart. This advance could move heart regeneration from science fiction to everyday medicine, offering hope to millions.
