Abstract The immune system has long been recognized as a key driver in the progression of heart failure (HF). However, clinical trials targeting immune effectors have consistently failed to improve patient outcome across different HF aetiologies. The activation of the immune system in HF is complex, involving a broad network of pro‐inflammatory and ...

Myogenic differentiation of VCP disease-induced pluripotent stem cells: A novel platform for drug discovery. [PDF]
Valosin Containing Protein (VCP) disease is an autosomal dominant multisystem proteinopathy caused by mutations in the VCP gene, and is primarily associated with progressive muscle weakness, including atrophy of the pelvic and shoulder girdle muscles ...

Metabolic syndrome influences cardiac gene expression pattern at the transcript level in male ZDF rats [PDF]
Background: Metabolic syndrome (coexisting visceral obesity, dyslipidemia, hyperglycemia, and hypertension) is a prominent risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, however, its effect on cardiac gene expression pattern is unclear ...

A First in Human Study of the Selective Cardiac Myosin Inhibitor, CK-3773274 [PDF]
Introduction Hypercontractility of the cardiac sarcomere appears to underlie pathological hypertrophy and fibrosis in select genetic hypertrophic cardiomyopathies (HCM). CK-3773274 (CK-274) decreases systolic function in preclinical models by directly binding to the cardiac myosin motor domain and inhibiting the myosin ATPase, stabilizing the motor in

Cardiac remodelling in the era of the recommended four pillars heart failure medical therapy
Abstract Cardiac remodelling is a key determinant of worse cardiovascular outcome in patients with heart failure (HF) and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). It affects both the left ventricle (LV) structure and function as well as the left atrium (LA) and the right ventricle (RV).

The effects of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors on the ‘forgotten’ right ventricle
Abstract With the progress in diagnosis, treatment and imaging techniques, there is a growing recognition that impaired right ventricular (RV) function profoundly affects the prognosis of patients with heart failure (HF), irrespective of their left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).

Considerations for drug trials in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Abstract Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a heterogeneous condition with potentially serious manifestations. Management has traditionally comprised therapies to palliate symptoms and implantable cardioverter‐defibrillators to prevent sudden cardiac death. The need for disease‐modifying therapies has been recognized for decades.

IntroductionHypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common genetic cardiac disease marked by abnormal ventricular hypertrophy. Recent studies have highlighted that left atrial (LA) remodelling—including dilation, fibrosis, and functional impairment—plays ...
