            "description": "Cedars-Sinai scientists have created a new experimental drug called TY1 that helps the body repair damaged DNA and restore injured tissue. The discovery came from studying tiny molecular messages released by heart cells that naturally support healing after injury. By identifying and recreating the most powerful of these messages, the team developed a synthetic RNA molecule that boosts the body’s DNA-repair system, reduces scarring, and may improve recovery after heart attacks and other diseases.",
            "content": "Researchers explained how TY1 works in a paper published on December 3 in Science Translational Medicine.\n\"By probing the mechanisms of stem cell therapy, we discovered a way to heal the body without using stem cells,\" said Eduardo Marbán, MD, PhD, e... [3145 chars]",
