Immunological Regulation of Fibrosis During Heart Failure: It Takes Two to Tango by Vinay Kumar, Shyam S. Bansal

“…Incomplete resolution coupled with sustained low-grade inflammation during dilated cardiomyopathy precipitates a “frustrated” immune cell response resulting in unconstrained pro-fibrotic and pro-hypertrophic signaling to induce maladaptive structural and functional changes in the myocardium. The aims of this review are to (i) briefly summarize the role of key immune cells that regulate wound healing during MI and fibrosis during LV remodeling; (ii) underscore phenotypic diversities in immune cells and their subsets to underscore their role in regulating fibrotic responses, and, last but not the least, (iii) highlight gaps in our understanding that restrict the translation of immuno-modulatory therapies from the preclinical models to heart failure patients.…”
