Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a clinical diagnosis characterized by left ventricular or biventricular dilation and impaired contraction that is not explained by abnormal loading conditions (for example, hypertension and valvular heart disease) or coronary artery disease.

Immune-inflammatory concept of the pathogenesis of chronic heart failure in dogs with dilated cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Background: Dilated cardiomyopathy is common in dogs. This form of cardiomyopathy is the main cause of death due to heart disease in dogs. Death can occur suddenly in clinically normal animals as a result of the progression of congestive heart failure ...

Precise genomic editing of pathogenic mutations in RBM20 rescues dilated cardiomyopathy
Mutations in RNA binding motif protein 20 (RBM20) are a common cause of familial dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). Many RBM20 mutations cluster within an arginine/serine-rich (RS-rich) domain, which mediates nuclear localization. These mutations induce RBM20

Truncated titin proteins in dilated cardiomyopathy
Description Truncating mutations in TTN result in both truncated titin proteins and reduced full-length titin in patient hearts. Tracking titin in dilated cardiomyopathy Truncating variants in TTN, the gene encoding the titin protein, underlie 15 to 25 ...

A predictive model for canine dilated cardiomyopathy—a meta-analysis of Doberman Pinscher data [PDF]
Dilated cardiomyopathy is a prevalent and often fatal disease in humans and dogs. Indeed dilated cardiomyopathy is the third most common form of cardiac disease in humans, reported to affect approximately 36 individuals per 100,000 individuals.
