Time-lapse mechanical properties of stem cell derived cardiac organoids are important biological cues for understanding contraction dynamics of human heart tissues, cardiovascular functions and ...

A groundbreaking new study led by researchers at the Masonic Medical Research Institute (MMRI) has identified that two closely related proteins, RBPMS and RBPMS2, act in tandem to protect the heart's ...

The study of cardiac physiology is hindered by physiological differences between humans and small-animal models. Here we report the generation of multi-chambered self-paced vascularized human cardiac ...

An international team of researchers has discovered how cholesterol can disrupt the internal functioning of the heart by accumulating in the mitochondria of cardiomyocytes. They have also developed an ...

No one can live without a heart pumping blood to the rest of the body. New research from the University of Missouri School of Medicine reveals more information about this vital function and how it’s ...

A team of researchers have discovered that a mutation in a ribosomal protein found specifically in heart and skeletal muscle leads to impaired cardiac contractility in mice. The mutation was found to ...
