Megjegyzések:	It is now well known that congestive heart failure (CHF) is invariably associated with cardiac hypertrophy, and changes in the shape and size of cardiomyocytes (cardiac remodeling) are considered to explain cardiac dysfunction in CHF. However, the mechanisms responsible for the transition of cardiac hypertrophy to heart failure are poorly understood. Several lines of evidence both from various experimental models of CHF and from patients with different types of CHF have indicated that the functions of different subcellular organelles such as extracellular matrix, sarcolemma, sarcoplasmic reticulum, myofibrils, mitochondria, and nucleus are defective. Subcellular abnormalities for protein contents, gene expression, andenzyme activities in the failing heart become evident as a consequence of prolonged hormonal imbalance, metabolic derangements, and cation maldistribution. In particular, the occurrence of oxidative stress, development of intracellular Ca2+ overload, activation of proteasesand phospholipases, and alterations in cardiac gene expression result in changes in the biochemical composition, molecular structure, and function of different subcellular organelles (subcellular remodeling). Not only does subcellular remodeling appear to be intimately involved in the transition of cardiac hypertrophy to heart failure, the mismatching of the function of different subcellular organelles leads to the development of cardiac dysfunction. Although blockade of the renin-angiotensin system, sympathetic nervous system, and various other hormonal actions have been reported to produce beneficial effects on cardiac remodeling and heart dysfunction in CHF, the actions of various cardiac drugs on subcellular remodeling have not been examined extensively. Some recent studies have indicated thatboth the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin receptor antagonists attenuate changes in sarcolemma, sarcoplasmic reticulum, and myofibril enzyme activities, protein contents, and gene expression, and partly improve cardiac function in the failing hearts. It is suggested that subcellular remodeling is an excellent target for the development of improved drug therapy for CHF. Furthermore, extensive studies should investigate theeffects of different agents individually or in combination on reverse subcellular remodeling, cardiac remodeling, and cardiac dysfunction in various experimental models of CHF.
