New Study Reveals Stem Cells from Young Hearts May Help Reverse the Aging Process
Futurism A new study from the Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute reveals that stem cells taken from younger rats provided older rats with youthful vigor when injected into their hearts. After a month, the rats ran longer, and regrew hair faster. Older hearts could be rejuvenated with stem cells from younger ones – studyRT Newborn heart stem cells may ‘reverse aging’ of older hearts, study saysUPI.com |
