Hart regenereert spierweefsel na infarct, onderzoek toont aan

Researchers from the University of Sydney have confirmed that the human heart can regenerate muscle cells after a heart attack, a finding previously observed only in mice. The study, which analyzed tissue samples from heart surgery patients, shows that while the heart becomes scarred after an attack, it produces new muscle cells that could potentially be enhanced to improve recovery. Although this natural regeneration is insufficient to fully restore heart function on its own, the discovery opens new possibilities for developing regenerative treatments to prevent heart failure and reduce the
