title: [Myocardial remodeling].
abstract: Chamber remodeling and myocardial systolic dysfunction play an important role in the development of cardiac failure after myocardial infarction. The process is accompanied by qualitative and quantitative changes in the expression and reexpression of genes regulating cell growth and contractile function. The article tries to explain some of the mechanisms of the myocardial remodeling that permit the modifications and adaptation of the heart to normal and pathological conditions from a clinical point of view and, in the same time, from a molecular point of view.
