Anti remodeling therapy: new strategies and future perspective in post-ischemic heart failure: Part I

Abstract: RASSEGNA IntroduzioneGrazie ai recenti miglioramenti delle tecniche di riperfusione coronarica e della terapia farmacologica dell'IMA, negli ultimi anni si è verificato un considerevole aumento della sopravvivenza dei pazienti con questa patologia, anche nei casi più severi [1,2]. Contemporaneamente ciò ha determinato un aumento della morbilità nei pazienti sopravvissuti i quali, in un arco di tempo che va da pochi giorni a diversi mesi, spesso sviluppano disfunzione sistolica e/o diastolica di grado variabile… Show more

“…HF is characterized by the overexpression of molecular and hormonal pattern (such as angiotensin-aldosterone pathways, adrenergic activation and inflammation) after an index event aimed at restoring the homeostasis of the cardiovascular system [9,10]. However, this process might ultimately result into a maladaptive remodeling of the left ventricle with long-term detrimental effects on the cardiovascular system [11][12][13][14][15][16][17].…”

“…Our understanding of CHF has remarkably improved after that the neuro-hormonal model was proposed [1]. This is rooted in ubiquitous over-activation of such patterns (i.e., renin-angiotensin-aldosterone, sympathetic nervous system, inflammatory activation and cytokines), aimed to restoring heart function in a first moment [2,3], but with detrimental effects in the course of the disease [4,5]. The bedrock of current pharmacological therapy of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) consists of several compounds aimed to blocking the aforementioned molecular pathways, and is associated consistent improvements in terms of morbidity and mortality [6].…”

“…CHF is now considered not only as a "cardiac disease" caused by alterations in the structure and function of the heart but as a "systemic disease" in which the interplay between myocardial factors, systemic inflammation, comorbidities, and neurohormonal activation plays a pivotal role [3]. With the aim of improving the assessment and treatment of patients with CHF, the current vision has progressed from a focus on the recovery and support of solely hemodynamic aspects of the patient's condition, to a more targeted view aimed at modifying the maladaptive molecular processes that contribute to progression of disease [4][5][6].…”
