UW researchers engineer stem cells that do not generate dangerous arrhythmias - Blog

Researchers have engineered stem cells that do not generate dangerous arrhythmias, a complication that has until now thwarted efforts to develop stem cell therapies for injured hearts. Researchers suspected that transplanted stem cells that did not generate arrhythmias were behaving like early embryonic cells chaotically generating signals and causing dangerous heart rhythms. So the researchers […]
