Morphological and structural remodeling of the heart, including cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis, has been considered as a therapeutic target for heart failure for approximately three decades. Groundbreaking heart failure medications demonstrating reverse remodeling effects have contributed significantly to medical advancements. However, nearly 50% of heart failure patients still exhibit drug resistance, posing a challenge to the healthcare system. Recently, characteristics of heart failure resistant to ARBs and β-blockers have been defined, highlighting preserved systolic function despite impaired diastolic function, leading to the classification of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). The pathogenesis and aetiology of HFpEF may be related to metabolic abnormalities, as evidenced by its mimicry through endothelial dysfunction and excessive intake of high-fat diets. Our recent findings indicate a significant involvement of mitochondrial hyper-fission in the progression of heart failure. This mitochondrial pathological remodeling is associated with redox imbalance, especially hydrogen sulphide accumulation due to abnormal electron leak in myocardium. In this review, we also introduce a novel therapeutic strategy for heart failure from the current perspective of mitochondrial redox-metabolic remodeling. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
