Relationship between myocardial iron homeostasis and the development of heart failure. (A) Cellular homeostasis of iron and ATP production in normal, IRP1/2-deficent, and IRP1/2-deficient with iron-supplemented cardiomyocytes. (B) Link between IRP1/2 deficiency, iron homeostasis, ATP production, and heart failure. (C) Therapeutic strategies aimed at improving myocardial iron levels and clinical outcomes in patients with heart failure. IRP1/2, iron response protein 1 and 2; Trf1, transferrin receptor 1; Fpn, ferroportin; DMT1, divalent metal transporter 1; ACEi, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor; MRA, mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist.
