Scientists attempt to grow breathing muscle in a dish to fight fatal diseases

NCT ID NCT07380308

Summary

This study aims to create the first-ever lab-grown cells from the human diaphragm, the main breathing muscle. Researchers will collect small tissue samples from 10 people undergoing surgery for a separate condition. By comparing these new diaphragm cells to existing arm muscle cells, they hope to build a crucial research tool for understanding and eventually treating severe, fatal neuromuscular diseases like ALS.
