Popis: | Heart failure with a preserved left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (HFpEF) often arises from a prolonged LV pressure overload (LVPO) and is accompanied by abnormal extracellular matrix (ECM) accumulation. It is now recognized that the ECM is a dynamic entity that is regulated at multiple post-transcriptional levels, including the E3 ubiquitin ligases, such as WWP1. In the present study, WWP1 deletion in the context of an LVPO stimulus reduced functional indices of HFpEF progression and determinants of ECM remodeling. Understanding and targeting the ubiquitin ligases in the context of HFpEF forms an important research direction. |
