A compound the body can make after eating pomegranates, walnuts, and some berries improved measures of heart function by up to 80% in animal models of a difficult-to-treat form of heart failure.

Researchers at King’s College London report that urolithin A, a molecule the body can make after eating pomegranates, walnuts ...

A team of biomechanical engineers at the University of New South Wales, working with a colleague from Queensland University of Technology and cardiac surgeons at St Vincent's Hospital, Sydney, has ...

Our research challenges the assumption that heart structure is uniform across mammals. Instead, subtle but crucial differences in heart anatomy and function have emerged in response to unique ...

In a study published in the scientific journal Science Advances, funded by the British Heart Foundation, researchers at King’s College in London discovered that urolithin A, a compound associated with ...

Compared with untreated controls, the urolithin A treatment significantly enhanced measures of cardiac function in animal ...

A compound made naturally by the body after eating certain foods may offer a new way to tackle one of the more difficult ...

The heart has long been thought to be controlled solely by the autonomic nervous system, which transmits signals from the brain. The heart's neural network, which is embedded in the superficial layers ...

Researchers at the Nora Eccles Harrison Cardiovascular Research and Training Institute, University of Utah, and the University of Utah School of Medicine, have demonstrated that a gene therapy can ...

Mammals, from the mighty blue whale to the tiny shrew, inhabit nearly every corner of our planet. Their remarkable adaptability to different environments has long fascinated scientists, with each ...
