Without the replacement of the heart, it is possible to repair wounds through stem cells
UK researchers working to repair heartburn wounds and disorders through stem cells
It will be possible to add wounds through stem cells without replacing the affected heart.
If an important part of the body is harmed by the heart or its disease, its cells can not be easily regenerated. After a major heart attack, billions of cells can be damaged forever. This causes the heart to weaken and become inefficient. It is currently the only way to complete the recovery of a sick and damaged heart patient. But because of this, the need for a healthy heart is strong and the patient has to wait for it for a long time.
The UK's University of Cambridge Stemsell Institute is working on an innovative way to heal the affected tissues of the heart. Instead of transplanting the heart, they have produced tissues for straining the heart from stem cells in the laboratory. Although they are only 2.5 square cm, it can be used to treat people with cardiovascular diseases.
Sanjay Sinha, a cardiologist at Edenbrook Hospital in Cambridge, said they believe they have many chances of being naturally involved in the patient's heart. He said, "We are creating complete functional tissues that interact with each other in combination with all these cells, vibrating and shrinking."
As a result, the patient will not have to wait for the heart. Rather they can be made as per the requirement as needed. Like replacement patients, there will be no need to take medicines for whole life or there will be no such problems.
The team of Cambridge University thinks that they can be properly placed in the part of the affected muscles through three-dimensional printing and the surgeon can sew it with the heart. However, the most difficult task will be to ensure electrical signals, which can be associated with the heartbeat of the heart.
