New Delhi, Mar 31 (PTI) Scientists have identified a group of proteins to leverage for cellular programming, enabling them to reprogram damaged heart cells to repair heart injuries in mice following a heart attack.

The findings from Sanford Burnham Prebys, US, could help transform treatments for a range of diseases, including cardiovascular, Parkinson’s and neuromuscular diseases, they said.

The findings are published in the journal Nature Communications.
