Abstract
Myofibroblast activation requires nuclear translocation of ATP citrate lyase (ACLY) that triggers chromatin remodeling and the induction of fibrosis-associated genes. ACLY inhibition prevents myofibroblast conversion and causes de-differentiation of myofibroblasts to fibroblasts, indicating a potential therapeutic approach for heart failure.
