«Jacob» officially announced the successful production of «human heart»

Publication of the World Grand Egyptian Dr. Magdi Yacoub , a heart surgeon world , and a research paper yesterday, the first science journal «Biomaterials» According to successfully trials research team from Imperial College London in the construction scaffolding Nanonah help in the proliferation of stem cells to produce heart valves alternative for normal tissue to produce a « human heart full » .

The « Jacob » announced three years ago, about the experiences of research team British leadership , to replace cardiac tissue and development using scaffolding made ​​of a material « Collagen » to heart valves to produce human heart full , but the results of these trials showed the paper recent research after the team's success in building a scaffolding Nanonah « 600 nm » of using a highly porous biomaterial .

And deliberately team of five researchers , through the experiences of hospital labs « Harefield » British , to transplant stem cells derived from bone marrow on nano scaffolds which have contributed to the proliferation of cells and the production of heart valves alternative to re- integrate them into the tissues of the human body .

The results of the new research , Dr. Magdi Yacoub scientific achievement in addition to his scientific toward prolonging and improving the quality of life of patients who suffer from heart valves defective , and the great scientific leap for the production of fully human heart . According to statistics from the World Health Organization , it is expected the death of 23 million people by the year 2030 due to heart disease , and contributes to replace defective heart valves in improving the average age of patients with heart disease .

The aspiration of scientists 15 years ago to form the tissues alive outside the human body , but the combined efforts of biologists and materials engineering has resulted in innovation and the development of a type of blood to the article « Collagen » called « scaffolding » enables heart cells and blood vessels from growing , thus opening the way for the revival of My heart is dead tissue areas by transferring the stem cells in the hope that these cells adapt and begin to produce new heart cells
