As thousands of people await a lifesaving heart, scientists are racing to buy them more time. A promising advance from scientists in Germany offers a potential solution.

because when heart cells die, they don't regenerate, and there is not much time to save cells from dying. The Gosses said they hope by sharing Jeff Goss' experience, they can save more lives.

These findings suggest that people with gum disease, especially those infected with P. gingivalis producing gingipain, may be ...

Researchers found that exposure to microgravity increased cancer cell proliferation and survival. Xu hypothesized that heart cells might exhibit similar behavior, which would address two current ...

This study shows that poor oral health — particularly gum infections caused by Porphyromonas gingivalis — could make heart ...

A scientific technique that rapidly increases the body's production of anti-inflammatory cells promotes healing from heart ...

A scientific technique that rapidly increases the body's production of anti-inflammatory cells promoted healing from heart attacks in mice, according to a new study. Once adapted to treat humans, the ...

After a heart attack: The excessive production of immune cells can trigger inflammation, potentially leading to heart scarring and, over time, heart failure. A possible solution: A vitamin metabolite ...

Heart disease remains the leading cause of death in the United States, accounting for one in five deaths. The inability of damaged heart muscle tissue to regenerate makes heart disease difficult to ...
