Peripheral blood microRNA-21 as a predictive biomarker for heart failure with preserved ejection fraction in old hypertensives

CONCLUSIONS: miR-21 levels in peripheral blood monocytes are associated with the development of future HFpEF. Our findings may alter the risk models of HFpEF and support the rationale for further research into the modulation of miRs as biomarkers and treatment targets for HFpEF.PMID:37976292 | DOI:10.1093/ajh/hpad109
