Abstract
Despite decades of intensive research and therapeutic development, heart failure remains a leading cause of death worldwide. However, recent advances in several basic and translational research fields, such as genomic analysis and single-cell analysis, have increased the possibility of developing novel diagnostic approaches to heart failure. Most cardiovascular diseases that predispose individuals to heart failure are caused by genetic and environmental factors. It follows that genomic analysis can contribute to the diagnosis and prognostic stratification of patients with heart failure. In addition, single-cell analysis has shown great potential for unveiling the pathogenesis and/or pathophysiology and for discovering novel therapeutic targets for heart failure. Here, we summarize the recent advances in translational research on heart failure in Japan, based mainly on our studies.
