Heart Attack Prevention Vaccine: Chinese Scientists Achieve Breakthrough
Chinese researchers have developed a vaccine that could potentially prevent heart attacks by stopping fat accumulation in blood vessels. Scientists from Nanjing University of Science and Technology conducted trials on rats, which yielded promising results.
The vaccine targets atherosclerosis, a condition where fat buildup in arteries obstructs blood flow, leading to heart attacks and strokes. According to global health data, millions of people die annually due to atherosclerosis-related complications. The new vaccine stimulates white blood cells to produce antibodies, enhancing immunity and preventing fat deposits in arteries.
Heart attacks have become a leading cause of death worldwide, affecting individuals of all ages, including children. In India, research indicates that 45% of deaths among individuals aged 40-69 are caused by heart attacks. With these promising results, the Chinese researchers’ breakthrough could pave the way for future advancements in cardiovascular disease prevention.
