Scientists at the Hubrecht Institute in the Netherlands have achieved a remarkable breakthrough in heart regeneration therapy. By utilizing a protein found in zebrafish, known as Hmga1 ...

They discovered that the protein Hmga1 plays a key role in heart regeneration in zebrafish. In mice, this protein was able to restore the heart by activating dormant repair genes without causing ...

Researchers from the Bakkers group at the Hubrecht Institute have successfully repaired damaged mouse hearts using a protein from zebrafish. They discovered that the protein Hmga1 plays a key role in ...
