Risk Factors and Cellular Differences in Heart Failure: The Key Role of Sex Hormones

Elvira Delcuratolo, Alberto Palazzuoli, Francesca Coppi, Anna Vittoria Mattioli, Paolo Severino, Francesco Tramonte, Francesco Fedele

Summary: Patients with heart failure are conventionally stratified based on their ejection fraction and gender, as there may be significant differences in the onset, development, and clinical course of the disease between males and females. Despite these differences, treatment for heart failure is similar across the whole population.

Female cardiovascular biology and resilience in the setting of physiological and pathological stress

Helen E. Collins

Summary: For many years, females were excluded from research due to the misconception that they were smaller men with complex hormonal cycles. However, in the past decade, it has become clear that male and female cardiovascular biology and cardiac stress responses differ significantly. Premenopausal women are protected from cardiovascular diseases and have different biological processes that contribute to ventricular remodeling compared to males. Understanding the sex-dependent differences in myocardium response is important for post-infarction remodeling and functional decline.

Sex-Based Differences in Heart Failure

Sadiya S. Khan, Lauren B. Beach, Clyde W. Yancy

Summary: Sex-based differences in risk, symptoms, and management of heart failure exist, with women having a higher incidence of HF with preserved ejection fraction compared to men. However, there are gaps in understanding gender-based differences in HF and inadequate representation of women and gender minorities in clinical trials.

Berry-Derived Polyphenols in Cardiovascular Pathologies: Mechanisms of Disease and the Role of Diet and Sex

Rami S. Najjar, Casey G. Turner, Brett J. Wong, Rafaela G. Feresin

Summary: The prevalence, pathogenesis, and manifestation of cardiovascular disease are influenced differently by biological sex. Berry polyphenols target various signaling pathways related to CVD development, with innate differences in these pathways varying by sex. Limited research has systematically investigated sex differences in berry polyphenol effects, but there are fundamental findings suggesting a sex-specific effect.Berry consumption, due to its substantial polyphenolic profile, represents a promising interventional tool in the treatment and prevention of CVD in both sexes, though the mechanisms may vary by sex.

Sex-Related Differences in Genetic Cardiomyopathies

Alessia Argiro, Carolyn Ho, Sharlene M. Day, Jolanda van der Velden, Elisabetta Cerbai, Sara Saberi, Jil C. Tardiff, Neal K. Lakdawala, Iacopo Olivotto

Summary: Cardiomyopathies are diseases characterized by primary functional and structural abnormalities of the heart muscle. The most effective classification is based on the presenting phenotype. Sex modulates the prevalence, clinical manifestations, and course of cardiomyopathies. Differences in ion channel expression and left ventricular remodeling exist between male and female patients. Societal and environmental factors may also contribute to clinical differences between sexes.

17β-Estradiol and estrogen receptor α protect right ventricular function in pulmonary hypertension via BMPR2 and apelin

Andrea L. Frump, Marjorie Albrecht, Bakhtiyor Yakubov, Sandra Breuils-Bonnet, Valerie Nadeau, Eve Tremblay, Francois Potus, Junichi Omura, Todd Cook, Amanda Fisher, Brooke Rodriguez, R. Dale Brown, Kurt R. Stenmark, C. Dustin Rubinstein, Kathy Krentz, Diana M. Tabima, Rongbo Li, Xin Sun, Naomi C. Chesler, Steeve Provencher, Sebastien Bonnet, Tim Lahm

Summary: This study identifies a novel cardioprotective mechanism in the right ventricle where 17β-estradiol upregulates apelin expression via estrogen receptor α, potentially leading to alleviation of RV failure induced by pulmonary arterial hypertension. Understanding and harnessing this E2/ERα/BMPR2/apelin axis may offer new RV-targeted therapies for PAH patients of both sexes.

Ignoring a basic pathophysiological mechanism of heart failure progression will not make it go away

A. Martin Gerdes, Michael A. Portman, Giorgio Iervasi, Alessandro Pingitore, David K. C. Cooper, Dimitri Novitzky

Summary: The link between heart failure (HF) and low thyroid hormone (TH) function has been known for over a century, but treating HF patients with TH may not be worth the risk due to past clinical trials and challenges in normalizing TH levels in noncardiac patients. The number of citations on TH-HF has been increasing steadily in recent years, indicating that this issue is not going away anytime soon.

Sex and age differences in sST2 in cardiovascular disease

Danielle J. Beetler, Katelyn A. Bruno, Damian N. Di Florio, Erika J. Douglass, Swikriti Shrestha, Carsten Tschoepe, Madeleine W. Cunningham, Jan Krejci, Julie Bienertova-Vasku, Sabine Pankuweit, Dennis M. McNamara, Eun-Seok Jeon, Sophie van Linthout, Lori A. Blauwet, Leslie T. Cooper, DeLisa Fairweather

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the sex and age differences in soluble ST2 (sST2) levels for various cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Using ELISA kit, sST2 levels were measured in patients with myocarditis, cardiomyopathy, coronary artery disease (CAD), myocardial infarct (MI), and congestive heart failure (CHF) and compared to controls without CVDs. The results showed that myocarditis occurred in younger patients around the age of 40, while other CVDs were more common in individuals around the age of 60. There were significant differences in sST2 levels between sexes in myocarditis and cardiomyopathy, but not in other CVDs.

Sex-specific differences in the genetic and environmental effects on cardiac phenotypic variation assessed by echocardiography

Honghuang Lin, Alan C. Kwan, Cecilia Castro-Diehl, Meghan I. Short, Vanessa Xanthakis, Ibrahim M. Yola, Gerran Salto, Gary F. Mitchell, Martin G. Larson, Ramachandran S. Vasan, Susan Cheng

Summary: The drivers of sexual dimorphism in heart failure phenotypes are poorly understood. This study aimed to assess the heritability and contributions of genetics and environment to cardiac traits and their inter-relations in a large community-based cohort. The results showed significant heritability for all traits in both men and women, with no significant differences between sexes. However, there were differences in the genetic and environmental correlations between cardiac structure and function, suggesting potential pathways for sex-based divergent heart failure phenotypes.

Sex-based considerations for implementation of ventricular assist device therapy

K. Candis Jones-Ungerleider, Angela Rose, Kevin Knott, Sarah Comstock, Jonathan. W. W. Haft, Francis. D. D. Pagani, Paul. C. C. Tang

Summary: Women with advanced heart failure receive advanced surgical therapies at a lower rate compared to men, and the reasons for this disparity are largely unknown. Existing research indicates that females have higher mortality and experience bleeding, clotting, and right ventricular failure more frequently following LVAD implantation. However, there is limited understanding of the pre-operative factors that contribute to the lower-than-expected LVAD implant rates in this population. More focused research is needed to identify and address disparities in advanced heart failure therapy delivery for women and other underserved populations.

Summary: Sex-based differences exist in the prevalence and outcomes of cardiovascular disease and cancer. There may also be differences between males and females in the risk of cardiotoxicity following cancer therapy. However, for certain cancer treatments such as hormone therapy and immune therapy, sex-based differences have not been fully elucidated. Further research is needed to fill these knowledge gaps and guide future clinical practice.

Changes in the expression of cardiac genes responsive to thyroid hormones in the chickens with cold-induced pulmonary hypertension

S. Bahadoran, H. Hassanpour, S. Arab, S. Abbasnia, A. Kiani

Summary: Cold stress can cause PHS in broiler chickens, potentially by increasing metabolic activity through thyroid hormones (T3 and T4). The study found that plasma T3 concentration was significantly higher in the PHS group at 21 days, along with higher gene expression of certain proteins in the right ventricle tissues compared to controls. Furthermore, at 35 days, only THR beta gene expression was higher in the PHS group.
