Chronic activation of hexosamine biosynthesis in the heart triggers pathological cardiac remodeling

Metabolic remodeling plays an important role in pathological cardiac hypertrophy. Here, the authors show that hexosamine biosynthetic pathway is elevated in the heart by pressure overload, which contributes to heart failure by persistent activation of mTOR.
