摘要

Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death worldwide. Because of the heart's limited ability to regenerate, injuries such as myocardial infarction (heart attack) heal by scar formation rather than muscle regeneration. As a result, the heart pumps less efficiently, leading to the burgeoning epidemic of heart failure seen today. Current medical therapies support the heart with its reduced function, but scientists and clinicians are eager to learn how to regenerate damaged heart muscle. On pages 593 and 599 of this issue, Qian et al. and Song et al. describe how, in an effort to improve cardiac function, they have induced scar-forming cells (fibroblasts) to become muscle cells (cardiomyocytes) in the injured hearts of live mice.
