426 A Beat Away from Precision Medicine: Characterizing Human Cardiac Fibroblast Responsiveness to Hemodynamic Unloading in Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction
OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Myocardial interstitial fibrosis leads to high hemodynamic load resulting in heart failure (HFrEF). Previous studies show that treatment with a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) does not reduce fibrosis. We hypothesize that human cardiac fibroblasts are highly activated in HFrE...
