Description
Marta Szulik, Luis Hortells, and Manuel Rosa-Garrido wrote a 2026 editorial opening a special issue on epigenetics in heart health and disease. Gene sequence alone cannot explain how the heart grows, adapts, ages, and fails. Chemical marks on DNA and its packaging form a flexible control layer.
The collected studies treat these marks as one connected system, not lone events. Multi layer data hunts in one paper found a new driver of stress related heart thickening, then proved it in cells. Other pieces map methylation shifts in failure. The editors argue the field has moved from describing marks to finding drug targets among them.
