Abstract

BACKGROUND: Despite maximal pharmacological treatment guided by clinical guidelines, the prognosis of heart failure (HF) remains poor, posing a significant public health burden. This necessitates uncovering novel pathological and cardioprotective pathways. Targeting cytokines presents a promising therapeutic strategy for HF, yet their intricate mechanisms in HF progression remain obscure.
