Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction: Mechanisms and Treatment Strategies

Kazunori Omote et al.

Summary: The prevalence of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is increasing rapidly, and it has significant impact on the functional capacity and quality of life of patients. Unlike heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, there are limited effective treatments available for HFpEF. Therefore, improved understanding of its pathophysiologic mechanisms and individualized treatment strategies is crucial.

Neuroimmune cardiovascular interfaces control atherosclerosis

Summary: This study discovered the presence of widespread neuroimmune cardiovascular interfaces (NICIs) in the adventitia of atherosclerosis-diseased arteries, suggesting a direct interaction between the peripheral nervous system and diseased arteries. Through anatomical and functional studies, it was found that NICIs play a crucial role in the formation of an artery-brain circuit (ABC). Therapeutic intervention in the ABC was shown to attenuate atherosclerosis.

Insight into the Role of the PI3K/Akt Pathway in Ischemic Injury and Post-Infarct Left Ventricular Remodeling in Normal and Diabetic Heart

Bartosz Walkowski et al.

Summary: Cardiovascular diseases, particularly myocardial infarction, continue to be the leading cause of death worldwide. The introduction of molecularly targeted drugs, specifically targeting the components of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, holds promise for further reducing the death rate. This pathway plays a crucial role in the growth and survival of cardiomyocytes, and its activation has been shown to alleviate negative post-infarct changes in the myocardium. This article provides insights into the role of the PI3K/Akt pathway in ischemia and subsequent left ventricular remodeling, highlights promising substances for further investigation, and explores the molecular mechanism of its effects on myocardial ischemia and left ventricular remodeling.

Pathophysiology and genetics of salt-sensitive hypertension

Dina Maaliki et al.

Summary: Most cases of hypertension are primary and closely related to modifiable risk factors such as salt intake. Studies have shown that even small reductions in salt consumption can lower blood pressure in people of all ages. Salt-sensitivity has been identified as an independent risk factor for cardiovascular events and mortality. However, the pathogenesis of salt-sensitive hypertension is still unclear due to its multifactorial etiology, complex genetic influences, and the lack of a diagnostic tool.

Summary: This study found that 62% of normotensive individuals experienced a clinically significant increase in mean arterial pressure after ingesting salt, with the systolic blood pressure at 30 minutes post-salt load being a significant predictor of this response. The findings suggest that salt consumed in single meals may contribute to an increased 24-hour blood pressure load, which is a risk factor for hypertension and target organ damage, emphasizing the importance of including dietary sodium assessment in the diagnosis, prevention, and management of high blood pressure.

Summary: Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a complex multiorgan syndrome involving the heart, lungs, kidneys, skeletal muscle, adipose tissue, vascular system, and immune and inflammatory signaling. It is challenging to model in experimental animals due to its multiorgan involvement, but new animal models and efforts to examine human pathophysiology are revealing potential therapeutic targets. Research is focusing on cellular and molecular pathobiology of HFpEF, with efforts to understand mechanisms relevant to the heart as well as other organ systems, in order to develop more patient-specific therapies and improve clinical outcomes.
