Abstract
Intensive research has shed light on the utilization of novel biomarkers which facilitate
the diagnosis and prognosis of patients with different medical problems. One of the
most important biomarkers especially in the spectrum of heart failure is soluble ST2 (sST2:
soluble Suppression of Tumorigenicity 2), which is involved in inflammation, fibrosis and
cardiac stress. In the revised 2017 ACC/AHA/HFSA, “Focused Update Guidelines for the
Management of Heart Failure” ST2 was given a class-IIa recommendation for the optimal
risk assessment in patients with heart failure. Many studies indicate that not only baseline but
also serial measurements of ST2 can accurately predict future cardiovascular events in patients
with Acute Coronary Syndromes and heart failure. Therefore, in this review, we are
going to discuss the studies about the prognostic significance of ST2 in patients with Acute
Coronary Syndromes, acute and chronic heart failure.
