Stem Cell Research Finds Master Cell for Heart (in mice)

November 25th 2006 14:53
Two teams of researchers have found that the development of the heart in an embryonic mouse is controlled by only two stem cells. One of those stem cells is responsible for all the muscle tissue types in the heart.

If this research carries over to humans, the implications for heart attack victims could be significant. More research needs to be carried out before determining how to use it in humans.
