California: Your heart can be as healthy as before even after a heart attack. This has been revealed in a recent study. Scientists from the University of California found research that cells that died from a heart attack can be revived through hormones. The special thing is that they will be completely natural. Which will also prove to be very beneficial in the case of gene therapy procedures. So far this experiment has been done in rats. It is yet to be tested on humans.
If the test works on humans, it could open the way to saving and prolonging life for people who have had heart attacks. A synthetic messenger ribonucleic acid has been used in this experiment done on rats. In this technique, mRNA creates a ‘blueprint’ of DNA sequences, which the body uses to make proteins where the proteins build and control our cells.
The purpose of the scientist to do this is to change the mRNA and give different instructions for different biological processes. These messages are generated in two ways. First through Stemin and second through YAP5SA. Both these hormones activate the cardiomyocytes of the heart muscle. This helps in reviving the cells of the heart which have died. Scientists want dead cells to become new cells.
