Myofibroblast Phenotype and Reversibility of Fibrosis in Patients With End-Stage Heart Failure
2019, Journal of the American College of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :The fraction of collagen types was irrespective of the original etiology (Online Figures 11A and 11B). This contrasts with findings of an earlier study reporting that end-stage DCM was associated with loss of collagen type I (32). Although we did not see differences in the level of fibrosis and collagen subtypes, we found a higher level of LOX and periostin in DCM than in ICM patients (Online Figures 11C and 11D).
Collective transcriptomic deregulation of hypertrophic and dilated cardiomyopathy – Importance of fibrotic mechanism in heart failure
2018, Computational Biology and ChemistryCitation Excerpt :But, the mechanism for upregulation of both fibromodulin and lumican in HCM have been unclear. Yoshikane et al. (1992) documented the increase in number and thickness of collagen fibers in DCM, which contradicts the results of Weber and group (Weber et al., 1988), who demonstrated the increase in thin collagen fiber and a decrease in thick collagen fibers in end stage DCM compared with non failing heart. Recent study by Li et al. (2016) also reported the increase in thickness and number of collagen fibers.
Biomarkers
2012, Heart Failure ClinicsCitation Excerpt :It is also responsible for much of the passive diastolic stiffness of the ventricle.96 In both human and animal studies, progressive left ventricular remodeling and dysfunction are associated with significant changes in the extracellular matrix.97–100 The structural hallmark of prolonged pressure-overload hypertrophy is significantly increased collagen accumulation between individual myocytes and myocyte fascicles (Fig. 6).101,102
Activation of Akt kinase accompanies increased cardiac resistance to ischemia/reperfusion in rats after short-term feeding with lard-based high-fat diet and increased sucrose intake
2011, Nutrition ResearchCitation Excerpt :This remodeling was similar to that observed in the failing heart. It has also been found that collagen matrix disorganization in LV and changes in the fibrillar collagen network contribute to the progression of LV chamber dilatation and dysfunction [48,49]. Moreover, in some studies, it has been suggested that matrix disorganization associated with dilatation of LV is attributed to the enhanced collagen degradation through changes in MMPs or their inhibitors [50,51].
