Direct Cardiac Reprogramming: Advances in Cardiac Regeneration
Heart disease is one of the lead causes of death worldwide. Many forms of heart disease, including myocardial infarction and pressure-loading cardiomyopathies, result in irreversible cardiomyocyte death. Activated fibroblasts respond to cardiac injury by forming scar tissue, but ultimately this response fails to restore cardiac function. Unfortunately, the human heart has little regenerative ab...
متن کاملDirect Reprogramming—The Future of Cardiac Regeneration?
Today, the only available curative therapy for end stage congestive heart failure (CHF) is heart transplantation. This therapeutic option is strongly limited by declining numbers of available donor hearts and by restricted long-term performance of the transplanted graft. The disastrous prognosis for CHF with its restricted therapeutic options has led scientists to develop different concepts of ...
متن کاملReprogramming for cardiac regeneration
Treatment of cardiovascular diseases remains challenging considering the limited regeneration capacity of the heart muscle. Developments of reprogramming strategies to create in vitro and in vivo cardiomyocytes have been the focus point of a considerable amount of research in the past decades. The choice of cells to employ, the state-of-the-art methods for different reprogramming strategies, an...
متن کاملDirect reprogramming for cardiac regeneration: from dream to reality.
Direct reprogramming of endogenous fibroblasts into functional cardiomyocytes to regenerate the heart after myocardial infarction (MI) has long been a dream. A few years ago, this would have been considered by most to be science fiction. Certainly, the most optimistic scientists would probably categorize this as “highly unlikely to ever work.” And yet, 2 papers,1,2 including one in this issue o...
متن کاملHeart regeneration for clinical application update 2016: from induced pluripotent stem cells to direct cardiac reprogramming
Cardiovascular disease remains a major cause of death for which current therapeutic regimens are limited. Following myocardial injury, endogenous cardiac fibroblasts, which account for more than half of the cells in the heart, proliferate and synthesize extracellular matrix, leading to fibrosis and heart failure. As terminally differentiated cardiomyocytes have little regenerative capacity foll...
