Brief Summary:
Pilot study to assess the effect of L-Arg and Vit C liposomal supplementation on mitochondrial function in patients with heart failure, through analysis of the viability of mitochondria isolated from peripheral blood of mononucleate cells (PBMC).
Detailed Description:
Pilot, monocentric, national, non-pharmacological, prospective, double-blind randomized trial.
The primary objective of this study is to assess the effect of liposomal L-Arg and Vit C supplementation on mitochondrial function in patients with heart failure, by analysis of the viability of mitochondria isolated from peripheral blood of mononucleate cells (PBMC). Mitochondrial respiratory function of PBMC (in extensive lymphocytes and monocytes) is readily available. These cells are involved in many inflammatory diseases, including those driven by episodes of ischemia-reperfusion, which play a key role in cardiovascular alterations. In particular, the recruitment of T cells and myocardial infiltration are well described during ischemic and non-sischemic heart failure, so the mitochondrial function of PBMC could play a significant role in this immune disorderrelated during heart failure.
