Type 2 diabetes doesn’t just raise the risk of heart disease—it physically reshapes the heart itself. Researchers studying ...

The heart listens to nerve signals as it ages. New findings show how the vagus nerve may help protect heart muscle over time.

Scientists have uncovered new evidence showing how type 2 diabetes directly reshapes the human heart, altering both its energy production and physical structure.

Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists who arranged for 48 human bioengineered heart tissue samples to spend 30 days at the International Space Station report evidence that the low gravity conditions in ...

Newborns with heart complications can rely on their newly developed immune systems to regenerate cardiac tissues, but adults aren't so lucky. After a heart attack, most adults struggle to regenerate ...

New research reveals that type 2 diabetes doesn’t just raise the risk of heart disease, it physically reshapes the heart ...

Johns Hopkins Medicine researchers are collaborating with NASA to send human heart “tissue-on-a-chip” specimens into space as early as March. The project is designed to monitor the tissue for changes ...

The procedure used to treat arrhythmias typically allows for a short recovery time, but precautions are necessary to preserve healthy heart function. Heart ablation creates little scars on heart ...

The human heart has been found to show signs of aging after a mere month in space. Heart tissue samples aboard the International Space Station (ISS) were discovered to beat only around half as ...
