Core Tip Dipeptidyl peptidase 3 (DPP3) is a novel biomarker and active mediator in cardiovascular disease. Unlike traditional markers that simply reflect tissue injury, circulating DPP3 (cDPP3) directly influences hemodynamics by degrading angiotensin II and other vasoactive peptides, contributing to vasodilation, myocardial depression, and shock progression. Elevated cDPP3 predicts cardiogenic shock and mortality in acute coronary syndromes and heart failure, while its dynamic trajectory provides unique prognostic value. Beyond risk stratification, therapeutic neutralization of cDPP3 shows promise in reversing circulatory failure, positioning it at the interface of biomarker discovery and targeted intervention.
