In hypertrophic and failing hearts, fuel metabolism is reprogrammed toward enhanced glycolysis. Here, we identify asprosin, an adipokine, as a critical regulator of this process in pathological cardiac hypertrophy. In patients, circulating asprosin levels correlate with NT-proBNP and EF. Cardiomyocyte-specific asprosin overexpression aggravates hypertrophy, abnormal glycolysis, and impairs mitochondrial ATP production in male mice, whereas its deficiency confers protection against TAC- or Ang II ...[more]
