A new gene therapy can reverse the effects of heart failure and restore heart function in a large animal model. The therapy increases the amount of blood the heart can pump and dramatically ...

Failing hearts nearly returned to full function in laboratory pigs after they received an experimental gene therapy. New research shows the gene therapy didn't just prevent heart failure from ...

In a single IV injection, a gene therapy targeting cBIN1 can reverse the effects of heart failure and restore heart function in a large animal model. The therapy increases the amount of blood the ...

Previous attempted therapies for heart failure have shown improvements in heart function on the order of 5–10%. cBIN1 gene therapy improved function by 30%. “It’s night and day,” Shaw added.

A novel gene therapy shows promise in reversing heart failure in a large animal model, paving the way for potential human treatments.

Heart failure has historically been irreversible, but a new study suggests that could change. At the University of Utah, scientists used a new gene therapy that reversed heart failure in animals.

New research shows the gene therapy didn’t just prevent heart failure from worsening in four lab pigs, but actually prompted hearts to repair and grow stronger.

An experimental gene therapy successfully treated heart failure in pigs The therapy actually prompted the pigs’ hearts to heal and grow stronger Researchers are planning human trials for the ...
