Scientists find protein in zebrafish that could help regrow damaged human heart tissue.
Researchers from the Hubrecht Institute have used a protein called Hmga1 from zebrafish to repair damaged hearts in mice, a breakthrough that could lead to new regenerative therapies for human heart failure.
The protein activates dormant repair genes without causing side effects like heart enlargement.
Published in Nature Cardiovascular Research, the study suggests potential for gene therapies to unlock heart regeneration in humans, though more testing is needed.
