This study reveals the pathomechanisms of the transition from maladaptive right ventricular remodeling to right heart failure and highlights the involvement of reactive oxygen species in this process.
We sought to unravel pathomechanisms of the transition of maladaptive right ventricular (RV) remodeling to right heart failure (RHF) upon pressure overload. Exposure of C57BL/6J and C57BL/6N mice to pulmonary artery banding disclosed a tight relation of structural remodeling with afterload, but a dissociation from RV systolic function. Reduced release of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species in C57BL/6J mice prevented the development of RHF. In patients with left heart failure, increased oxidative damage in RV sections was asso-ciated with severely impaired RV function. In conclusion, reactive oxygen species are involved in the transition of maladaptive RV remodeling to RHF. (J Am Coll Cardiol Basic Trans Science 2022;7:658???677) ?? 2022 The Authors.
