CARDIAC METABOLISM

Deciphering metabolic remodeling of the failing hearts

A landscape view of metabolic remodeling in end-stage human failing hearts generated by multiomics analysis confirms main changes in cardiac energy metabolism and challenges several widely held mechanisms derived from animal models. Further validation in non-end-stage heart failure and metabolic flux analysis will be necessary to move the field forward.
