Chemokines profile in patients with chronic heart failure treated with cardiac resynchronization therapy.

CONCLUSIONS: HF-REF patients present altered chemokines profile compared to the control group. The CRT-related alleviation of HF-REF causes only slight changes in the chemokines concentrations especially in the platelet-associated ones. The precise chemokines role in the HF-REF pathogenesis and their prognostic value remains to be established.
