Statins may act on an enzyme called endothelial nitric oxide synthase, which stimulates nitric oxide production. Increased nitric oxide has anti-inflammatory and anti-clotting effects...
Results from the first U.S. clinical trial investigating the benefit of using a patient's own (autologous) selected adult stem cells, called CD34+ cells, to treat coronary artery disease are promising.
New solar cells don't need direct sunlight to operate and use a patented range of dyes that can be impregnated in roofs, window glass and eventually even clothing to produce power.
