Heart: Beating to Breaking

Meer over het boek

Advancements in technology may transform the future of heart attack treatment, focusing on repairing and regenerating damaged heart muscle. Researchers are investigating mRNA technology, which, when injected into injured areas, prompts cells to produce proteins that aid healing. Additionally, gene editing with CRISPR could enhance heart cell repair or convert other cell types into functional heart muscle. While still in early stages, these innovative approaches promise to improve patient outcomes and reduce the need for invasive procedures, offering hope for those affected by heart attacks.
