The curious minds at ColdFusion introduce the scientists who 3D printed a living, beating human heart for the first time.

Bioluminescent imaging is helping researchers better understand the effectiveness of tissue regeneration enhancers delivered to injured heart tissue by different adeno-associated virus vectors.

BACKGROUND: Direct reprogramming of fibroblasts to cardiomyocytes is a potentially curative strategy for ischemic heart ...

The heart is the body's hardest-working muscle. Whether you're awake or asleep, or exercising or resting, your heart is always at work. It pumps blood through arteries to deliver oxygen to organs ...

A team led by the University of Sydney has identified red blood cell rupture at dying endothelial sites as a primary driver of microvascular obstruction in COVID-19, bypassing the expected role of ...

Tiny chip mimicking human blood vessels could transform heart disease diagnosis The tiny microfluidic chip offers a more precise model for studying vascular diseases and serves as a powerful ...

She remembers observing a patient undergoing a heart bypass, which involves using a healthy vessel to reroute blood flow around a blocked coronary artery.

Microplastics may cause blockages in blood vessels in the brain and affect behavior, according to a study on mice.

A human has successfully received a titanium heart for the first time in medical history. The transformative technology provides a bridge-to-heart-transplant solution for patients with severe ...

Researchers have successfully created 3D-printed blood vessels that mimic human veins, promising to transform bypass surgery outcomes.

The simulator accurately replicates how blood flows through the heart—something that existing benchtop simulators using dead heart tissue could not do. Using live heart tissue from a pig instead ...

What causes fainting in humans? Prior to the new research, scientists understood that people faint when there's not enough blood entering or exiting the heart, cutting off blood flow to the brain.
