Heart Failure, Ischemic Myocardiopathy, Dilatative Myocardiopathy
Conditions
Brief summary
Project aim is to quantify the influence of a severe therapy-refractory heart failure caused by ischemic or dilative myocardiopathy on the function of the diaphragm, its molecular biological parameters and on the M. vastus lateralis. The control group consists of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and normal left ventricular ejection fraction indicated for coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) Differences in the geneses of heart failure (ischemic vs. dilative cardiomyopathy) will be evaluated during analysis. The ubiquitin-proteasome signaling pathway is considered as a central issue for the mechanism of the analyses muscle catabolism.
