ABSTRACT
In contrast to neonates and lower organisms, the adult mammalian heart lacks any capacity to regenerate following injury. The vast majority of our understanding of cardiac regeneration is based on research in young animals. Research in aged individuals is rare. This is unfortunate as aging induces many changes in the heart. The first part of this review covers the main technologies being pursued in the cardiac regeneration field and how they are impacted by the aging processes. The second part of the review covers the significant amount of aging-related research that could be used to aid cardiac regeneration. Finally, a perspective is provided to suggest how cardiac regenerative technologies can be improved by addressing aging-related effects.
