Cardiac sensitization refers to the process by which the heart becomes more responsive to certain stimuli, such as hormones or neurotransmitters, leading to increased contractility or altered electrical activity. This phenomenon can be beneficial in some cases, enhancing heart function, but it may also contribute to pathological conditions, such as arrhythmias or heart failure, if the sensitization becomes excessive or dysregulated. Factors like stress, medications, or underlying health issues can influence cardiac sensitization. Understanding this process is crucial for developing targeted treatments for various cardiovascular diseases.
