Australian researchers have uncovered a crucial new mechanism that helps explain how the heart's major blood vessels form ...

Human heart development is largely influenced by neural crest cells, which carefully regulate a key growth signal.

In order for heart and vascular cells to develop properly and remain healthy for a long time, many processes in the cells must interact precisely. A new study from the German Center for Cardiovascular ...

Mechanical cues are key regulators of cardiac development, yet their role in organoid maturation remains underexplored. In a new study, researchers introduce a magnetic torque stimulation (MTS) system ...

Heart disease remains the leading cause of death worldwide, yet progress in understanding and treating cardiac disorders is limited by the shortcomings of existing experimental models. Traditional ...

New research in Sweden has produced a "blueprint" revealing how the human heart is built during prenatal development. It offers insights that could lead to improved prenatal care and new treatments ...

Researchers at the University of Houston have provided new insights into the basic process of heart development in utero, offering potential advancements in the treatment of heart disease. The study ...

Long before human bone marrow takes over the task of producing blood, discrete waves of blood cell production occur in the developing embryo. Miriana Dardano, a postdoctoral researcher in Zweigerdt’s ...
