Researchers: the human heart cells that could renew


Researchers demonstrated that the human body cells renew the heart rate up to about one percent annually, thus reducing the future need for heart transplants.

They patrol in the (Science) scientific Thursday the four-year study conducted on 50 volunteers and observed a time-frame signs in the isotopes of carbon left over from nuclear bomb tests in the Cold War, which raised the possibility of stimulating the process of industrial renewal of cells.

The Jonas FRESNES from the Karolinska Institute of Sweden, "take advantage of the ability of the heart of self-generating new cells, using either pharmacological or vehicle if possible Baltmarenat or any other environmental factor."

FRESNES said that the rate of production of new cells at least with age, with cell renewal rate of young people in their twenties up to one percent a year and a half percent drop to a year at the age of 75 years.

And heart cells depends on the unusual early regeneration, and doctors know that there are cells in the control of the heart, called stem cells, but the heart muscle are often ulcerated tissue after exposure to harm does not regain its full capacity for regeneration.

This discovery may help in identifying those who are vulnerable to heart disease by monitoring the heart's ability to renew cells.
