Gut Microbiota and Aldosterone Regulate Natriuretic Peptide B Expression to Drive Mitophagy and Metabolic Reprogramming in Sepsis‐Like Model of Myocardial Injury

BACKGROUND: Myocardial injury is a major contributor to mortality in sepsis, yet the mechanisms underlying gut-heart communication in sepsis-induced myocardial injury remain insufficiently defined. Natriuretic peptide B (NPPB) is a cardiac stress-responsive gene, but its involvem...
