Abstract

Disturbed metabolism as a consequence of obesity and diabetes may cause cardiac diseases (recently highlighted in the CVR spotlight issue on Metabolic cardiomyopathies).1 In turn, the metabolism of the heart may also be disturbed in genetic and acquired forms of hypertrophic cardiac disease. Here, we provide an overview of recent insights on metabolic changes in genetic hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and discuss several therapies which may be explored to target disturbed metabolism and prevent onset of cardiac hypertrophy.
