The effect of spironolactone on cardiovascular function and markers of fibrosis in people at increased risk of developing heart failure: the heart ‘OMics’ in AGEing (HOMAGE) randomized clinical trial

Abstract

Galectin-3 did not identify greater reductions in serum concentrations of collagen biomarkers in response to spironolactone. However, spironolactone may influence type-I collagen metabolism. Whether spironolactone can delay or prevent progression to symptomatic heart failure should be investigated.
