Hey guys,

Just doing my rounds on the net to find things for my scars and found this great article. Without using stem cells, they turned scar tissue of the heart, back into working heart muscles in mice.

Obviously, it will be ages before its tested on humans and skin, but I found the cells activated in the process to be really cool.

Even as a light read, I recommend it :)

very interesting read, thats a huge step forward for people with a history of heart problems, but a small step forward for people suffering with acne scarring. If regenerative science becomes more main stream in the cosmetic industry, that would be very interesting.
