Preclinical Assessment of Atorvastatin for Treatment of Endocardial Fibroelastosis
Endocardial fibroelastosis is a condition caused by the fibrogenic activation of endothelial cells via endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition of the endocardium, which is regulated by the transforming growth factor-β pathway. Atorvastatin, a statin, can protect the vascular endothelium by up-regulating KLF2 and inhibiting the transforming growth factor-β pathway. This study aimed to investigate the effects of atorvastatin on the fibrogenic activation of endothelial cells in the endocardium. The study found that atorvastatin treatment reduced fibrogenic activation of endocardial endothelial cells and increased KLF2 expression in both in vitro and in vivo models of endocardial fibroelastosis–related left ventricular restriction.
期刊介绍:
JACC: Basic to Translational Science is an open access journal that is part of the renowned Journal of the American College of Cardiology (JACC). It focuses on advancing the field of Translational Cardiovascular Medicine and aims to accelerate the translation of new scientific discoveries into therapies that improve outcomes for patients with or at risk for Cardiovascular Disease. The journal covers thematic areas such as pre-clinical research, clinical trials, personalized medicine, novel drugs, devices, and biologics, proteomics, genomics, and metabolomics, as well as early phase clinical trial methodology.
