How some heart cells cope with high blood pressure
Gene familiar to cancer researchers may also separate heart cells that fail or adapt to high pressure
------------------------------------------------------------
Individual cells within the same heart cope differently with high blood pressure, according to a study in human cells and mice by a team of cardiologists and computational biologists at the University of Tokyo. This is the first time researchers have identified distinct differences between heart muscle cells that fail and those that adapt to high blood pressure.
