Key result
Modulating the ubiquitin-proteasome system shows therapeutic potential in early cardiac remodeling, but proteasome inhibitors targeting all complexes are associated with cardiotoxicity in humans.
Why the study?
Does modulating the ubiquitin-proteasome system improve outcomes or cause cardiotoxicity in heart disease?
Does modulating the ubiquitin-proteasome system improve outcomes or cause cardiotoxicity in heart disease?
Targeting individual components of the ubiquitin-proteasome system may offer novel therapeutic strategies for heart failure while avoiding the cardiotoxicity associated with broad proteasome inhibitors.

Cardiotoxicity limits broad proteasome inhibition; leaves open selective UPS targeting as a research strategy in early remodeling.
Drews et al. (2014) conducted a review in Heart Disease. Ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) modulation was evaluated. Modulating the ubiquitin-proteasome system shows therapeutic potential in early cardiac remodeling, but proteasome inhibitors targeting all complexes are associated with cardiotoxicity in humans.
