Lipid-Based Drug Delivery Systems in Heart Failure Treatment

Heart failure (HF) often represents an advanced stage of various cardiovascular diseases, posing significant therapeutic challenges. At the forefront of this medical evolution, Creative Biolabs is pioneering advanced lipid-based drug delivery systems specifically engineered to tackle the complexities of heart failure therapy. Our innovative strategy aims to refine heart failure management through precise interventions.

Background of HF Treatment

Heart failure (HF) represents a multifaceted clinical condition marked by structural or functional cardiac impairments, typically arising from diverse etiological factors. These changes impair the ventricular contraction and/or relaxation, leading to symptoms such as fluid retention, dyspnea, and fatigue. Importantly, metabolic alterations in the failing heart typically precede functional impairments, suggesting that metabolic reprogramming may serve as an early hallmark in the pathogenesis of HF.

Metabolic Targets for Pharmacological Treatment of HF

Given the heart's high demand for ATP turnover to maintain homeostasis, metabolic changes in the context of HF have long been a focal point of research. Metabolomic advances have elucidated new pathways, enhancing our understanding of HF progression and treatment target identification. Specifically, pathways and targets related to fatty acid metabolism and glucose metabolism have been identified as promising therapeutic avenues.

Here are some drugs targeting metabolic pathways in HF, which offer new therapeutic strategies by modulating fatty acid metabolism, glucose metabolism, and other metabolic pathways.
