  • Article - 13/11/2017 Two scientists in the laboratory holding and looking at an artificial heart valve.

    An artificial heart valve with the potential to grow

    About 30,000 artificial heart valves are implanted in Germany every year. The durability of these heart valves presents a major challenge, requiring them to be exchanged time and again, especially in young patients. Researchers from the Stuttgart Fraunhofer Institute for Interfacial Engineering and Biotechnology IGB have developed a new artificial heart valve material on which cells that are naturally present in a patient’s blood can form new…

    Using a heart simulator for optimal therapy

    A realistic computer model of the human heart is expected to make treating heart diseases more effective: doctors will be able to test medicines and surgical techniques on the computer heart and determine the most effective therapy. Olaf Dössel, director of the Institute of Biomedical Engineering at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, believes that his team's heart model is among the top five in the world.

    Heart muscle cell 1.0 and 2.0 – two epigenetic programmes in one cell

    All the cells in an organism have to adapt to changing requirements as they develop and grow - including muscle cells in the heart. Crucial to this process are the cells’ growth in size and epigenetic factors that play a role in modulating the expression of various genes. The role of epigenetics in cancer development has been the focus of research for quite some time. The question is, what role do epigenetic factors play in the development of the…

    Michael Kühl: in search of the gene architects of the heart

    Michael Kühl is investigating the development of the heart using a broad range of different model organisms. The developmental biologist, director of the Institute of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the University of Ulm, also uses evolutionary and systems biology approaches for his work. Kühl’s basic research does not follow an art for art’s sake principle, but also addresses the development of new therapies for the treatment of heart…

    A vision of the future: whole-heart tissue engineering

    Scientists from the Department of Cardiac Surgery at the Heidelberg University Hospital have developed a bioreactor to produce a new heart from a patient’s own heart cells. The reactor mirrors the internal conditions of the human body. For example, the medium with the patient’s cells is pumped into the developing organ via small pulses that mirror the human heartbeat.

    Cardiac catheter surgery for children and young adults without X-ray radiation

    Heart specialists and electrophysiologists from Tübingen University Hospital have succeeded for the first time in Germany in treating cardiac arrhythmia without the need for X-ray radiation. This was done through the selection of a new method to control the contact force between the catheter and the blood vessel and cardiac walls. The intervention was successfully carried out on a 16-year-old girl and is regarded as a very attractive alternative…

    Healthy hearts in old age

    Coordinated by the Department of Cardiology at the University of Heidelberg, the EU-funded interdisciplinary project “BestAgeing” is focussed on the identification of biomarkers for diagnosing heart disease in elderly patients. The research partners hope that the combination of several biomarkers will allow a more accurate diagnosis of heart disease, resulting in a more efficient and effective treatment of elderly patients.

    The zebrafish can mend its own heart

    In adults, cells such as nerve or cardiac muscle cells have lost the ability to regenerate. This is why myocardial infarction is so dangerous – damaged cardiac muscle cells do not grow back and scar tissue forms in their place. Prof. Dr. Gilbert Weidinger and an international team of researchers have deciphered a mechanism responsible for the regeneration of the zebrafish heart.

    Cardiomyopathies and epigenetic inheritance

    Epigenetic mechanisms, along with gene mutations, have been shown to play important roles in the development of heart diseases. Researchers from Heidelberg have discovered that the methylation of two specific genes has an impact on the development of dilated cardiomyopathy. These epigenetic modifications have the potential to be used as molecular markers and improve the diagnosis and therapy of these particular heart diseases.

    Scientists Find Cause of Fatal Inflammation of the Heart Muscle

    Scientists of the German Cancer Research Center (Deutsches Krebsforschungszentrum, DKFZ), jointly with colleagues in the United States, have found out that inflammations of the heart muscle are caused by attacks of a specific type of immune cells. These immune cells attack the body’s own tissue because during their maturation they did not have the chance to develop tolerance against a protein that is only found in the heart muscle.

    New genetic cause of cardiac insufficiency discovered

    The heart needs to pump approximately 250 million litres of blood through the body during a person’s lifetime. In order to do this effectively, the cardiac muscle fibres need to be extremely resilient. A team led by Dr. Wolfgang Rottbauer, assistant medical director of the Department of Internal Medicine III at the University Hospital of Heidelberg, has discovered a protein component that is responsible for the stability of the smallest muscle…
