Its generally been known that the regenerative capacity of heart muscles reduces with age. What are the key limitations in cardiac muscle regeneration. Is there any natural way of enhancing the regenerative capacity?
Hello Dude,
the logic is simple, CDCs having less regeneration capacity, irrespective of age they will show less regeneration if huge cell damage occurs. As far as age is concer, there are certain molecualr events like DNA damage, epigenetic changes are leding to telomere shortening, which is the most known reason and further leds to loss of structural and fucntional loss of heart through many molecular mechanisms. For the finding Telomerase Enzyme and the gene sequencing of telomers Nobel was awarded for the year 2009. it is believed that this discovery answer all such questions related age.
