| Popis: | Heart failure (HF) is an urgent public health problem worldwide. A fundamental role in HF progression is played by fibrosis, which causes structural myocardial and vascular changes. In this regard, it seems relevant to search for pathogenetically justified HF therapy, aimed at slowing the myocardial fibrosis progression. The results of EMPA-REG OUTCOME study showed that glucose-lowering drugs, namely sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, have a positive effect on HF course, reducing cardiovascular mortality and hospitalization rate of patients for decompensated HF. Large-scale studies showed the antifibrotic properties of SGLT2 inhibitors. The review article presents the results of experimental studies on the use of SGLT2 inhibitors in animals. A number of mechanisms for the implementation of the antifibrotic properties of SGLT2 inhibitors affecting the cardiovascular system have been described. It seems relevant to further study SGLT2 inhibitors in clinical trials in order to identify and correct the pathogenetic mechanisms of myocardial fibrosis. |
