HFrEF occurs when the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is 40% or less and is accompanied by progressive left ventricular dilatation and adverse cardiac remodelling. Worldwide, the burden of heart failure has increased to an estimated 23 million people, and approximately 50% of cases are HF-rEF. Despite several therapeutic options, heart failure with reduced ejection fraction remains a ...

Loss of cardiomyocytes (heart cells) is the primary hallmark of heart failure. However, unlike other cell types, there is a limited capacity for cardiomyocytes proliferation in the adult heart and in the failing human heart. Therefore, regenerative approaches to replenish the lost cardiomyocytes are necessary to recover the contractile capacity of the heart and prevent death. Targeting ...
