“…The cardiovascular system is complex, and the posttranslational modification of serine and threonine residues in nuclear, cytoplasmic and mitochondrial proteins by O-GlcNAcylation is considered an important regulatory mechanism in the cardiovascular system. Changes in O-GlcNAcylation may lead to many metabolic imbalances and affect cardiovascular function; and this process has an prominent role in heart remodeling [55,120,121], heart failure [22,26,122], diabetic cardiomyopathy [123][124][125], ischemic heart disease [24,42,126], hypertension [127] and arrhythmia [128,129]. Protein O-GlcNAcylation reprograms the cardiac substrate metabolism under chronic stress to advantageously alter adaptation [130].…”
