Exercise training is a powerful adjunctive therapy in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), but ca. 55% of patients fail to improve VO2peak. We hypothesize that circulating microRNAs (miRNAs), as epigenetic determinants of VO2peak, can distinguish exercise responders (ER) from exercise non-responders (ENR).
