Preclinical study: after heart attack, a boost in anti-inflammatory cells promoted healing
A scientific technique that rapidly increases the body's production of anti-inflammatory cells promoted healing from heart attacks in mice, according to a new study by investigators from the Smidt Heart Institute at Cedars-Sinai. Once adapted to treat humans, the technique could potentially be used to repair heart muscle damage after a heart attack and be applied to a variety of inflammatory disorders. The investigators' findings were published in the peer-reviewed Journal of Clinical Investigation.
