FED:New stem cells could fix broken hearts
A rare type of stem cell could hold the key to mending a broken heart.
Australian scientists have discovered a new type of stem cell in mouse hearts, which
they believe play a vital role in maintaining the muscle and its vessels.
Lead researcher, professor RICHARD HARVEY, says scientists hope the cells could one
day be used to literally regenerate and repair hearts damaged by heart attack or heart
disease.
The scientists from the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute in Sydney and University
of New South Wales made the discovery during a seven-year study of heart stem cells in
mice.
