Unlocking the secrets of the regenerating fish heart: comparing regenerative models to shed light on successful regeneration
The adult human heart cannot repair itself after injury and, instead, forms a permanent fibrotic scar that impairs cardiac function and can lead to incurable heart failure. The zebrafish, amongst other organisms, has been extensively studied for its innate capacity to repair its heart after injury....
