Cardiac gene therapy is a research area that focuses on using genetic techniques to treat cardiovascular diseases. By targeting specific genes involved in heart function and disease, researchers aim to develop new therapies that can improve outcomes for patients with conditions such as heart failure, arrhythmias, and coronary artery disease. This area of research holds promise for potentially reversing or slowing the progression of cardiovascular diseases by delivering therapeutic genes into the heart muscle or other relevant tissues. The ultimate goal of cardiac gene therapy is to develop safe and effective treatments that can improve heart function and quality of life for patients with cardiovascular diseases.
