Scientists have identified 33 proteins in the blood that are associated with an increased risk of developing certain heart diseases and heart failure in particular.

Cancer treatment leads to many negative consequences that further weaken human health. However, scientists at University College London have found a way to prevent one of these side effects, namely heart damage, or cardiotoxicity. The New Atlas writes about it.

It is noted that cardiotoxicity is damage to the heart that occurs as a result of certain types of cancer treatment and drugs. This side effect can appear years after cancer treatment.

This damage prevents the heart from pumping blood normally, so it can cause heart failure.

Researchers have identified 33 proteins in the blood that are associated with an increased risk of developing multiple heart diseases, including heart failure.

“The proteins we found in our study will help accelerate the development of such medicine in the future, so that new treatments can be used not only for cancer, but also for heart disease. In this way , scientists will be more confident in what effect the drug under development has. , its purpose is to prevent any damage to the heart,” said researcher Florian Schmidt.

The new discovery will help develop a cancer drug that doesn’t interfere with normal proteins, as well as drugs that won’t harm people with malfunctioning hearts, he said.

It can be remembered that early roots from Northwestern University in the United States found that the body’s immune response is very important in restoring the work of the heart after a heart attack.
