Abstract

Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction (CMD) is now considered one of the key underlying pathologies responsible for the development of both acute and chronic cardiac complications. It has been long recognized that CMD contributes to coronary no-reflow, which occurs as an acute complication during percutaneous coronary interventions. More recently, CMD was proposed to play a mechanistic role in the development of left ventricle diastolic dysfunction in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Emerging evidence indicates that a chronic low-grade pro-inflammatory activation predisposes patients to both acute and chronic cardiovascular complications raising the possibility that pro-inflammatory mediators serve as a mechanistic link in HFpEF. Few recent studies have evaluated the role of the hyaluronan-CD44 axis in inflammation-related cardiovascular pathologies, thus warranting further investigations. This review article summarizes current evidence for the role of CMD in the development of HFpEF, focusing on molecular mediators of chronic proinflammatory as well as oxidative stress mechanisms and possible therapeutic approaches to consider for treatment and prevention.

Keywords: Heart failure, preserved ejection fraction, microvascular dysfunction, inflammation, oxidative stress, coronary arteries.
