Based on the results of previous studies demonstrating the cardiac preventive effects of B vitamins when introduced before inducing cardiac pressure overload in mice, we investigated the efficacy of a diet supplemented with a B vitamin cocktail (B3, B9 and B12 (3VitB)) to restore energy metabolism and improve cardiac function in an animal model of established HF. Four weeks after transverse aortic constriction (TAC) induction, male and female mice were treated with 3VitB. 3VitB increased life expectancy and reduced the TAC-induced alterations of cardiac parameters in males. Although these effects on survival and cardiac function were less clear in females due to their higher resistance to TAC, the 3VitB cocktail was beneficial in females as 8 weeks of treatment improved physical capacities and led to milder cardiomyocyte stress-induced hypertrophy in similar ways to those observed in males. In both sexes, 3VitB protected cardiac mitochondrial oxidative capacities, at least by supporting the process of mitochondrial biogenesis. Interestingly, our results revealed sex-specificities not only in response to cardiac pressure overload but also in response to 3VitB treatment. Overall, this study demonstrated the efficacy of 3VitB to preserved cardiac function and energy metabolism in an established HF model, especially in males that are more sensitive to cardiac pressure overload. This confers credit to vitamin supplementations and to metabolic therapy as new strategies to treat HF.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1186\/s13293-025-00764-x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,21]],"date-time":"2025-10-21T09:57:25Z","timestamp":1761040645000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Sex-specific benefits of a combined supplementation of B vitamins, nicotinamide riboside, folate and cobalamin, in a murine model of heart failure"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Sol\u00e8ne E.","family":"Boitard","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Morgane","family":"Delouche","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ahmed","family":"Karoui","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M\u00e9lanie","family":"Gressette","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Iman","family":"Momken","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Bertrand","family":"Bouchard","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fran\u00e7oise","family":"Mercier-Nom\u00e9","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Apolline","family":"Imbard","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Christophe","family":"Lemaire","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Anne","family":"Garnier","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Matthieu","family":"Ruiz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mathias","family":"Mericskay","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J\u00e9r\u00f4me","family":"Piquereau","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"764_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/CIRCRESAHA.121.318241","volume":"128","author":"GD Lopaschuk","year":"2021","unstructured":"Lopaschuk GD, Karwi QG, Tian R, Wende AR, Abel ED.
