Abstract：
:Since the discovery of a novel mechanism of cell death that differs from traditional necrosis, i.e., apoptosis, there have been numerous studies concluding that increased apoptosis augments myocardial infarction and heart failure and that limiting apoptosis protects the heart. Importantly, the vast majority of cells in the heart are non-myocytes with only roughly 30 % myocytes, yet almost the entire field studying apoptosis in the heart has disregarded non-myocyte apoptosis, e.g., only 4.7 % of 423 studies on myocardial apoptosis in the past 3 years quantified non-myocyte apoptosis. Accordingly, we reviewed the history of apoptosis in the heart focusing first on myocyte apoptosis, followed by the history of non-myocyte apoptosis in myocardial infarction and heart failure. Apoptosis of several of the major non-myocyte cell types in the heart (cardiac fibroblasts, endothelial cells, vascular smooth muscle cells, macrophages and leukocytes) may actually be responsible for affecting the severity of myocardial infarction and heart failure. In summary, even though it is now known that the majority of apoptosis in the heart occurs in non-myocytes, very little work has been done to elucidate the mechanisms by which non-myocyte apoptosis might be responsible for the adverse effects of apoptosis in myocardial infarction and heart failure. The goal of this review is to provide an impetus for future work in this field on non-myocyte apoptosis that will be required for a better understanding of the role of apoptosis in the heart.
