Heart failure is a leading cause of death worldwide, and patients with severe heart failure require left ventricular assist device (LVAD) support. LVAD is usually implanted as a bridge to transplantation (BTT) or destination but can be removed if the patient’s cardiac function recovers. We performed...
Cardiac reverse remodeling occurs in a small subset of heart failure patients treated with guideline-directed therapies. This phenomenon, which is defined by reduced ventricular dilatation and improved systolic function, is most common in patients receiving left ventricular assist device (LVAD) ther...

Ischemic and non-ischemic cardiomyopathies have distinct etiologies and underlying disease mechanisms, which require in-depth investigation for improved therapeutic interventions. The goal of this study was to use clinically obtained myocardium from healthy and heart failure patients, and characteri...
