Peptides in Cardiology: Preventing Cardiac Aging and Reversing Heart Disease

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide.As the population ages, the incidence of heart disease related to aging has surged, highlighting the need for innovative therapeutic strategies.Among these, peptides have emerged as a promising class of molecules due to their unique ability to modulate multiple physiological pathways involved in cardiac aging, repair, and regeneration.This review explores the role of various peptides in preventing cardiac aging, promoting myocardial repair, and reversing heart diseases, focusing on their mechanisms of action, clinical potential, and potential future prospects.
