    Targeting T cells to control their behaviour in heart disease

    Queen Mary, University of London | Professor Federica Marelli Berg

    Coronary heart disease (CHD) can be caused by the inappropriate behaviour of T cells—a type of immune cell. Although T cells help us fight infection, sometimes their action on the heart and blood vessels is unwanted. T cells can contr...

    Can we use oxygen MRI scans to improve heart attack care?

    University of Glasgow | Dr William Holmes

    A heart attack happens when one or more coronary arteries become blocked, stopping blood flow to the heart muscle. The extent of the damage to the heart affects how well patients will respond to treatment. For example, angioplasty reinstate...

    A new imaging tool to detect and monitor amyloid in the heart

    University College London | Professor James Moon

    In this fellowship, Professor James Moon and colleagues are developing a new imaging tool to detect amyloid protein in the heart. This may allow clinical trials of new drugs to treat the condition. Amyloidosis is a serious disease cause...

    Can a type of gene therapy technology help people with heart muscle disease?

    University of Oxford | Professor Matthew Wood

    Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is an inherited disease – where loss of a protein called dystrophin leads to progressive muscle wasting, including degeneration of heart muscle. People with this disease die earlier. New treatments are need...

    Understanding how hearts grow new blood vessels, to help heal after heart attack

    University of Oxford | Dr Nicola Smart

    Oxford researchers are advancing their quest to boost natural processes to help hearts repair themselves after a heart attack. In a heart attack, large portions of the heart are deprived of blood flow. This injures these areas of the heart...

  • MRI scans best to identify high risk heart disease patients

    The best way of identifying people at high risk of coronary heart disease following chest pain or angina is an MRI scan according to research we funded.

  • Can sweet treats reduce the risk of a heart attack?

    Read the BHF verdict on recent headlines that say people who eat sugary snacks have a lower risk of a heart attack or stroke.

    Preventing unwanted immune responses and heart transplant rejection

    Queen Mary, University of London | Professor Federica Marelli Berg

    The only way to cure severe heart failure is a heart transplant, but the transplant can fail if someone’s immune system rejects the new organ. Research that reveals more about how the immune system is involved in rejection could reveal new ...
