Based on recent research, it appears scientists are making significant strides in growing heart tissue using stem cells, suggesting the potential for future heart regeneration.
According to an announcement this week, researchers at the University of East London have successfully grown a "heart" using stem cells. This advancement could revolutionize cardiovascular research and lead to new treatments for heart disease (21-Feb-2024).
This information points towards the real possibility of stem cells being used to grow heart tissue or even entire hearts in the future. It is important to note, however, that the success of growing a complete, functional human heart that can be transplanted is still under development.
