Cardiotrophin: The Protein that makes the Heart think you are Exercising when you are not
Exercise plays a significant role in keeping the human heart healthy. A healthy heart pumps blood to other parts of the body proficiently, it performs at its best effectiveness and reduces the chances of any risk of heart failure. Keeping the heart healthy is paramount to anyone that wishes to lead a healthy life, which is why a lot of individuals have taken to exercising. Exercising the body does more than keeping the body physique in shape, its role in strengthening the heart cannot be overemphasised. However, understanding how exercising aid the heart can bring about a significant breakthrough in treating certain cardio conditions.
Various researches have been done to ascertain how exercise benefits the heart, and a lot of findings have been done, and there have been some alterations that show that some specific proteins can mimic the way exercise affects the heart, making the organ think that you are exercising when you are not actually doing so. It will be great to achieve the same positive effect that exercising has on the heart with the real activities involved. Cardiotrophin is a protein that does precisely that; it makes the heart feel as if you are exercising while you are not, therefore giving your heart the benefit of exercise without you undergoing the real exercising activities.
This claim was backed by a recent study conducted by a group of senior scientist at the Ottawa Hospital. According to the study, the protein, Cardiotrophin, will on its own instigate the profitable growth of the heart by making the organ feel as if you are exercising. The protein on its own will stimulates the muscles and cells of the heart in a way that exercise does and gives the gains that are usually attributed to working out or exercise as the case may be. This is a real scientific breakthrough because it will significantly benefit individuals treating right heart failure, as it has not much drug interventions as the left heart failure.
The researchers went on to state that Cardiotrophin enhances the growth of heart muscles and blood vessel in the heart. When this is done, the ability of the heart to pump blood increases, the scenario is the same as what is obtained when we exercise. The study also showed that the protein is useful in damaged hearts, no matter the part of the heart that is damaged. Most of the conventional heart failure drugs are for the left heart failure, with little or none of them being active in the right heart; hence, Cardiotrophin can do more in alleviating such condition. In the past, right heart failure has always been treated by transplant, but with such a scientific breakthrough as this, there is undoubtedly light at the end of the tunnel.
