Diverse Facets of Lipid Metabolism in Cardiac Pathology
Journal Title: Journal of Enzymology and Metabolism - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
Myocardial lipid accumulation play significant role in the pathogenesis of heart failure. The disorders pertaining to diverse aspects of lipid metabolism manifest in the form of various types of cardiovascular diseases. Extensive studies are required to excavate the possibilities of various pharmacologic modulation of lipid metabolism in a failing heart and accompanying alterations in myocardial structure and function. The present review focuses on myriads of facets of lipid metabolism and associated myocardial pathology.
