Exploring PKG signaling as a therapeutic avenue for pressure overload, ischemia, and HFpEF

INTRODUCTION: Heart failure (HF) is a complex and heterogeneous syndrome resulting from any diastolic or systolic dysfunction of the cardiac muscle. In addition to comorbid conditions, pressure overload, and myocardial ischemia are associated with cardiac remodeling which manifests as extracellular matrix (ECM) perturbations, impaired cellular responses, and subsequent ventricular …
