Sentences with phrase «beating cardiac tissue»

SAN FRANCISCO, CA — Researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, in collaboration with scientists at the Gladstone Institutes, have developed a template for growing beating cardiac tissue from stem cells, creating a system that could serve as a model for early heart development and a drug - screening tool to make pregnancies safer.

Not exact matches

The researchers believe this is the first 3D in vitro cardiac tissue with three cell types that can beat together as one entity rather than at different intervals.

Matters of the heart can be complicated, but York University scientists have found a way to create 3D heart tissue that beats in synchronized harmony, like a heart in love, that will lead to better understanding of cardiac health and improved treatments.

«For 2D or 3D cardiac tissue to be functional it needs the same high cellular density and the cells must be in contact to facilitate synchronized beating.»

In this research, Yousaf and his team made a scaffold free beating tissue out of three cell types found in the heart — contractile cardiac muscle cells, connective tissue cells and vascular cells.

For example, we are reprogramming cardiac fibroblasts — the heart's connective tissue — directly into beating cardiac - muscle cells.
