Immunomodulatory Effects of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells Revisited in the Context of Inflammatory Cardiomyopathy

open access: yesStem Cells International, 2013
Myocarditis is a common inflammatory cardiomyopathy, associated with cardiomyocyte apoptosis, which can lead to chronic left ventricular dysfunction. Under conventional heart failure therapy, inflammatory cardiomyopathy typically has a progressive course,

Colchicine in patients with chronic inflammatory cardiomyopathy: rationale and design of the CMP-MYTHiC. [PDF]

open access: yesESC Heart Fail
Abstract Introduction Acute myocarditis can lead to chronic inflammatory cardiomyopathy (Infl-CMP), a condition characterized by increased risk of ventricular arrhythmias (VA), left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction (LVSD), and heart failure (HF).

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) and positron emission tomography (PET) imaging in the diagnosis and follow-up of patients with acute myocarditis and chronic inflammatory cardiomyopathy : A review paper with practical recommendations on behalf of the European Society of Cardiovascular Radiology (ESCR). [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Cardiovasc Imaging, 2023
AbstractAdvanced cardiac imaging techniques such as cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) and positron emission tomography (PET) are widely used in clinical practice in patients with acute myocarditis and chronic inflammatory cardiomyopathies (I-CMP).

The efficacy and safety of hydroxychloroquine in patients with chronic inflammatory cardiomyopathy: a multicenter randomized study (HYPIC trial). [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Med
Chronic inflammatory cardiomyopathy (infl-CMP) is a long-term sequela caused by the chronicity of acute myocarditis, especially fulminant myocarditis (FM). Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) may benefit these patients by inhibiting the excessive inflammatory response.In this multicenter, randomized trial, we evaluated the efficacy and safety of HCQ in patients ...

115 Prognostic significance of iron deficiency status in chronic inflammatory cardiomyopathy [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal Supplements, 2021
Abstract Aims Iron deficiency (ID) and associated anaemia (IDA) represent major comorbidities in chronic diseases. However, their prevalence and prognostic significance have never been investigated in chronic inflammatory cardiomyopathy (CIC).

Microbiota-derived peptide mimics drive lethal inflammatory cardiomyopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Myocarditis can develop into inflammatory cardiomyopathy through chronic stimulation of myosin heavy chain 6-specific T helper (T-H)1 and T(H)17 cells. However, mechanisms governing the cardiotoxicity programming of heart-specific T cells have remained ...

Update on Myocarditis: From Etiology and Clinical Picture to Modern Diagnostics and Methods of Treatment

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2023
Although the frequency of myocarditis in the general population is very difficult to accurately determine due to the large number of asymptomatic cases, the incidence of this disease is increasing significantly due to better defined criteria for ...

Macrophage DCLK1 promotes obesity-induced cardiomyopathy via activating RIP2/TAK1 signaling pathway

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2023
Obesity increases the risk for cardiovascular diseases and induces cardiomyopathy. Chronic inflammation plays a significant role in obesity-induced cardiomyopathy and may provide new therapeutic targets for this disease. Doublecortin-like kinase 1 (DCLK1)

Characterization of the Myocardial Inflammatory Response in Acute Stress-Induced (Takotsubo) Cardiomyopathy

open access: yesJACC: Basic to Translational Science, 2018
Summary: Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is an acute stress-induced heart failure syndrome for which the exact pathogenic mechanisms are unclear, and consequently, no specific treatment exists.
