Abstract
Cardiac repair: New myocyte lineages Knowledge of the nature of cardiac progenitor cells is important for an understanding of the development of heart diseases, and as a potential route to regenerative therapy using stem cells. Two groups now report previously unknown cardiac myocyte lineages isolated from the proepicardium of the mouse. Cai et al. identify a population of progenitor cells that express the transcription factor Tbx18, and Zhou et al. identify cells marked by the transcription factor Wt1. Both types of progenitor are pluripotent, capable of producing several different classes of heart cell, making them promising candidates for use in cardiac repair.
