What evidence supports the effectiveness of the drug AT-001 for treating diabetic cardiomyopathy?
The research highlights that diabetic cardiomyopathy is linked to metabolic disturbances in the heart, and while specific treatments like AT-001 are not directly mentioned, there is ongoing exploration of therapies targeting these metabolic issues. Some preclinical studies have shown promising results with antifibrotic and anti-inflammatory agents, which could be relevant to the development of AT-001.12345
