This Review summarizes the latest findings on heart reverse remodelling, which demonstrate that despite apparent normalization of function, the molecular changes associated with heart failure persist in the reverse-remodelled heart. This myocardial remission is distinct from true recovery, in which both function and molecular makeup are normalized. These findings have implications for developing therapies to repair the failing heart.
