Scientists developed a tissue for the human heart


U.S. scientists have claimed that they developed a tissue for the human heart which is capable of shrinking naturally with the help of stem cells. They also claimed that an important progress has been made ​​in the preparation of human organs.
The team of experts in the University of Pits Burg from the state of USA called Pennsylvania made human heart cells from human skin cells induced pluripotent stem cells (IPS), which is known as the pre-cursor cells or MCPs.
Scaffold network is actually a network of dead tissues which is made ​​up of protein and carbohydrates, which can cause cell development and combination.In-fact IPS Cells are mature or adult cells which have the capacity to adapt any part of the primary human body. The cells created with this process were associated with the mouse heart which is named Scaffold. Later, researchers were completely removed cells from the mouse heart. When the human pre-cursor cells were associated with 3D Scaffold, the development has gone into as heart muscle cell. According to the Statement issued by The University of Pittsburgh when the blood supply to muscle was provided for 20 days the organ of mice started beating for 40 to 50 times per second.
According to the senior researcher (Lei Yang Yang) involved in this study, “The progress of making the complete human heart is far away right now.'' He said that it is must to find such procedures by which such a beating could enable and possible with this force which can pump blood with good manner and could automatically prepares heart’s electric conduction system.  
According to the World Health Organization (WHO) approximately 17 million people died of heart related diseases every year.
According to Ying Shen we have paved the way by obtain technique of getting iPS cells from the pre-cursor cells with a unique style due to which the engineering of heart muscle will be possible in near future. Lie Yang expressed the hope that his research can be used to brought change into the heart muscles who has damage by caused of heart attack, or for changes of complete organs in patients with heart diseases.
