Humanin analogue promotes metabolic reprogramming to protect the ischemic heart
2026-06-22
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Myocardial ischemia drives adverse cardiac remodeling, metabolic inflexibility, and progression to heart failure. Mitochondrial dysfunction and impaired substrate utilization contribute to cardiomyocyte death and fibrosis, particularly with aging. Humanin (HNG), a mitochondria-derived peptide, has been shown to reduce acute ischemic injury, but its role in chronic ischemia and cardiac remodeli...
