Recent experimental and clinical data indicate that abnormal central and peripheral immune reactions contribute to the progression of chronic heart failure, and that immunomodulation may be an important therapeutic approach in this syndrome. Aims We sought to study the effects of growth hormone (GH) administration on circulating pro-inflammatory/anti-inflammatory cytokine balance, and to investigate whether these GH-induced immunomodulatory effects are associated with the improvement of left ventricular (LV) contractile performance in idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) patients.
