Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is an inherited cardiac disorder characterized by left ventricular thickening and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling, often manifested as increased interstitial fibrosis that impair muscle function. The clinical and pathological presentations, as well as the genetic background, vary among patients, making HCM a heterogeneous disease with diverse clinical phenotyping and responses to treatment. In HCM, the myocardium exhibits an increased secretion of inflammatory mediators and ECM proteins, indicating a stress response to myocardial pathogenesis. The production of these ECM proteins is regulated by the interaction between cardiomyocytes and the surrounding stroma, including cardiac fibroblasts, immune cells, and microvasculature. This crosstalk defines the responsiveness to injury and the progression of the disease. In this review, we aim to dissect the composition of myocardial ECM in relation to HCM development, highlighting the key cellular contributions to ECM remodeling and identifying potential molecular targets for personalized diagnostics and therapeutics.
肥厚型心肌病(HCM)是一种遗传性心脏疾病,其特征为左心室增厚和细胞外基质(ECM)重塑,常表现为间质纤维化增加,进而损害肌肉功能。患者的临床和病理表现以及遗传背景各不相同,这使得HCM成为一种具有多种临床表型和治疗反应的异质性疾病。在HCM中,心肌表现出炎症介质和ECM蛋白分泌增加,表明对心肌发病机制的应激反应。这些ECM蛋白的产生受心肌细胞与周围基质(包括心脏成纤维细胞、免疫细胞和微血管)之间相互作用的调节。这种相互作用决定了对损伤的反应性和疾病的进展。在本综述中,我们旨在剖析与HCM发展相关的心肌ECM组成,强调对ECM重塑的关键细胞贡献,并确定个性化诊断和治疗的潜在分子靶点。
