VIDEO | Cercetătorii australieni au creat un „atlas al inimii”

Australian researchers have developed a detailed map of chemical signals that regulate heart function, potentially improving cardiovascular disease diagnosis and treatment. The Cardiopedia-Ligand project catalogs how human cardiac tissue responds to 87 signaling molecules interacting with heart cell receptors. This atlas, created using human cardiac organoids, serves as a reference for scientists and the pharmaceutical industry. The study aims to identify effective medications for heart failure and personalize treatments based on genetic profiles. The project represents a significant step in understanding heart biology and developing targeted therapies.
