Music will help your heart transplant mice live longer

According to Japanese researchers, music can reduce the elimination of heart transplant mice by affecting the immune system.

In the latest issue on March 23 of Cardiothoracic Surgery in the UK, Japanese researchers explained their experiment with mice receiving heart transplant surgery.

Although transplants are often broken within 7-8 days due to the elimination mechanism, the lives of these mice can be prolonged if they hear certain types of music in a week.

For example, Mozart's opera "La Traviata" and classical music can help extend the life of transplants to 26.5 and 20 days, respectively. In some cases, transplants may even exist for more than 80 days.

However, this effect is not clear in mice that hear New Age music as well as mice exposed to a single fixed sound frequency, which has been tested in the range of 100Hz to 20,000Hz. .

Although the relationship between music and rejection mechanisms is unclear, the team determined the source of this protection is the spleen, because of the number of immune cells produced by the spleen. The mouse has changed when they listen to opera or Mozart's music.

Music has long been known to many people as a tonic that works to relieve stress, relax and relieve pain and therefore it is used clinically to reduce anxiety after a heart attack, or to relieve pain and nausea during bone marrow transplantation.
