The Effects of Resveratrol in Patients with Cardiovascular Disease and Heart Failure: A Narrative Review.

ABSTRACT: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the main cause of death globally and responsible for the second highest number of deaths in Canada. Medical advancements in the treatment of CVD have led to patients living longer with CVD but often progressing to another condition called heart failure (HF). As a result, HF has emerged in the last decade as a major medical concern. Fortunately, various "traditional" pharmacotherapies for HF exist and have shown success in reducing HF-associated mortality. However, to augment the treatment of patients with CVD and/or HF, alternative pharmacotherapies using nutraceuticals have also shown promise in the prevention and treatment of these two conditions. One of these natural compounds considered to potentially help treat HF and CVD and prevent their development is resveratrol. Herein, we review the clinical findings of resveratrol's ability to be used as an effective treatment to potentially help treat HF and CVD. This will allow us to gain a more fulsome appreciation for the effects of resveratrol in the health outcomes of specific patient populations who have various disorders that constitute CVD.

Project description:Background and Objective Heart failure (HF) is a global public health problem with high morbidity, readmission, and mortality rates. The central mediators of cardiomyocyte survival and death are mitochondria. Mitochondria are a key therapeutic target for HF and are closely involved in the pathophysiological process of HF. A recent study proposes that cuproptosis, a novel cell death mechanism, is closely related to mitochondrial respiration. Therefore, this study aims to explore the link between cuproptosis and HF, and to find novel therapeutic targets and treatments for HF. Methods A literature search (up to April 2022) was conducted through PubMed database, and the search range was limited to publications in English. After further literature search and screening, we found that we are currently the first study to explore the association between HF and cuproptosis. Key Content and Findings Research has found that mitochondria are a key therapeutic target in HF and are involved in the pathophysiological processes of energy metabolism, oxidative stress, calcium regulation, and cell death in HF. The micronutrient copper is involved in regulating mitochondrial biological processes, and high serum copper levels are significantly associated with HF. Copper overload affects mitochondrial function and exacerbates the development of HF. And cuproptosis induced by copper overload targeting lipoylated tricarboxylic acid cycle proteins, is closely related to mitochondrial respiration. Copper chelators not only treat HF but also partially rescue copper-mediated cell death. Copper binding to lipoylated components may be the reason for the hyperacetylation of mitochondrial proteins in HF. Ferredoxin 1 (FDX1) may be an upstream regulator of protein lipoylation and is closely related to cuproptosis. Conclusions This study demonstrates the important roles of mitochondria and micronutrient copper in HF. Cuproptosis may be involved in the pathophysiological process of HF and is responsible for the hyperacetylation of mitochondrial proteins in HF. Cuproptosis has the potential to be a novel therapeutic mechanism for HF, and FDX1 may be a key target for cuproptosis-based treatment of HF. This study provides a new research direction for the treatment of HF and new ideas for the development of new drugs.

Project description:BackgroundExercise training is recommended for chronic heart failure (HF) patients to improve functional status and reduce risk of adverse outcomes. Elevated plasma levels of amino-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), and cardiac troponin T (cTnT) are associated with increased risk of adverse outcomes in this patient population. Whether exercise training leads to improvements in biomarkers and how such improvements relate to clinical outcomes are unclear.Methods and resultsAmino-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide, hs-CRP, and cTnT levels were assessed at baseline and 3 months in a cohort of 928 subjects from the HF-ACTION study, a randomized clinical trial of exercise training versus usual care in chronic HF patients with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (<35%). Linear and logistic regressions were used to assess 3-month biomarker levels as a function of baseline value, treatment assignment (exercise training vs usual care), and volume of exercise. Linear regression and Cox proportional hazard modeling were used to evaluate the relations between changes in biomarker levels and clinical outcomes of interest that included change in peak oxygen consumption (peak VO2), hospitalizations, and mortality. Exercise training was not associated with significant changes in levels of NT-proBNP (P = .10), hs-CRP (P = .80), or detectable cTnT levels (P = .83) at 3 months. Controlling for baseline biomarker levels or volume of exercise did not alter these findings. Decreases in plasma concentrations of NT-proBNP, but not hs-CRP or cTnT, were associated with increases in peak VO2 (P < .001) at 3 months and decreased risk of hospitalizations or mortality (P ≤ .04), even after adjustment for a comprehensive set of known predictors.ConclusionsExercise training did not lead to meaningful changes in biomarkers of myocardial stress, inflammation, or necrosis in patients with chronic HF. Only improvements in NT-proBNP translated to reductions in peak VO2 and reduced risk of clinical events.
