New research has demonstrated that newly born mice can re-grow their own heart if it is damaged.
The find could one day lead to re-awakening a regenerative capability in human hearts or other organs, a breakthrough that could help repair damage sustained by heart attack sufferers and potentially save a great many lives.Scientists in the United States have found newborn mice can re-grow their own hearts.
