Accelerate Blood Vessel

Researchers are studying a way to enhance blood flow in ischemic diseases. A Ischemic disease is reduced blood supply of the heart muscle due to coronary artery disease.  The researches feel by blocking a protein in the white blood cells would speed up immature stem cells to cells with a specific function into a particular type of blood cell with a specific function.

I found this article interesting because the ischemic disease is the deadliest disease worldwide. If researches can find a way to cure this disease it could save a lot of lives and will be a new discovery for science and medicine. It may even contribute to cures for other diseases.

I hadn't heard about this disease before I read this post. So the disease basically reduces blood flow to certain parts of your body?
