Why is Cardiac Mesoderm Important in Development and Medicine?
Understanding the development of the cardiac mesoderm is crucial for comprehending congenital heart defects and for developing regenerative therapies. Congenital heart defects often result from disruptions in the normal development of the cardiac mesoderm. Additionally, knowledge of cardiac mesoderm development is being applied in regenerative medicine, where scientists are exploring ways to generate cardiac cells from stem cells to repair damaged heart tissue.
