Heart Failure: a Punch from the Gut.
Current Heart Failure Reports 2024 Februrary 2
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This article seeks to elucidate the mechanisms underlying the bidirectional relationship between the gut and the heart, focusing on the pathophysiology of heart failure. We have previously demonstrated that Heart failure (HF) has significant effects on splanchnic vasculature and leads to key alterations in the gut microbiome, portending greater comorbidity with HF.
RECENT FINDINGS: A growing field of research is focused on the effects of a "leaky gut" in the development of disease across organ systems. The leaky gut hypothesis centers on intestinal epithelial barrier dysfunction causing increased permeability of the gut and subsequent alterations to gut composition by endotoxins and microbial metabolites. Changes in the quantities of metabolites including short-chain fatty acids, trimethylamine N-oxide and other amino acid metabolites, and various bile acid species have been shown to result in gut dysbiosis and worsening HF. The gut plays a highly significant role in HF prognosis and requires greater attention for future therapeutic interventions. Treatments targeting gut composition could have very beneficial effects on HF prognosis.
