Familial dilated cardiomyopathy [PDF]

open access: yesHeart, 1994
ardiomyopathies are diseasesof the heart muscle that renderthe heart unable to properlypump enough blood to the body. In thedilated form of cardiomyopathy(called dilated cardiomyopathy orDCM), the heart is enlarged (Figure 1).As the heart enlarges, it becomes lesseffective in pumping blood, whichthen leads to symptoms of heart failureand irregular ...

Inter- Not Intraindividual Differences in sTWEAK Levels Predict Functional Deterioration and Mortality in Patients with Dilated Cardiomyopathy

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2014
Background. TNF-like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK) has been reported to predict mortality in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy. However, whether it can be used as a biomarker for disease monitoring or rather represents a risk factor for disease ...

CK2α Deficiency Drives Myocardial Fibrosis via Desmin‐Induced Mitochondrial Dysfunction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
CK2α preserves mitochondrial homeostasis by phosphorylating Desmin to recruit Cryab, ensuring proper filament assembly. CK2α deficiency disrupts this interaction, causing mitochondrial dysfunction, metabolic shifts, bioenergetic failure, and oxidative stress—ultimately establishing a pro‐fibrotic environment that drives cardiac fibrosis.

Prevalence of hepatitis C and B virus infection in patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy in Brazil: a pilot study

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases
The idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDMC) is a disease of the cardiac muscle characterized by systolic dilation and/or dysfunction of one or both ventricles, symptoms of congestive heart failure and risk of early death.

Outcome in Dilated Cardiomyopathy Related to the Extent, Location and Pattern of Late Gadolinium Enhancement

open access: yesJACC Cardiovascular Imaging, 2018
Objectives To investigate the association between the extent, location and pattern of LGE and outcome in a large DCM cohort. Background The relationship between late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) and prognosis in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is ...

The E3 Ligase RNF115 Aggravates Pathological Cardiac Hypertrophy via Ubiquitin‐Mediated Degradation of SPTBN1

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In response to hypertrophic stimuli, increased c‑JUN phosphorylation upregulates RNF115, leading to SPTBN1 ubiquitination and degradation. which promotes F‑actin depolymerization and YAP activation, driving cardiac hypertrophy. The RNF115 inhibitor DTD effectively suppresses SPTBN1 ubiquitination and cardiac hypertrophy.

Genetics of dilated cardiomyopathy

open access: yesAnnals of Medicine, 2007
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a myocardial disease characterized by dilatation and impaired systolic function of the left or both ventricles. The etiology of DCM is multifactorial, and many different clinical conditions can lead to the phenotype of DCM.

Protein phosphatase 2A anchoring disruptor gene therapy for familial dilated cardiomyopathy

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development
Familial dilated cardiomyopathy is a prevalent cause of heart failure that results from the mutation of genes encoding proteins of diverse function. Despite modern therapy, dilated cardiomyopathy typically has a poor outcome and is the leading cause of ...

Near missed reversible cardiomyopathy: The value of the electrocardiogram

open access: yesInternational Journal of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 2015
Dilated cardiomyopathy is a devastating disease affecting the myocardium that is characterized by cardiac chamber dilatation with contractile function impairment in the absence of structural heart disease.

The 9th International RASopathies Symposium

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The RASopathies are a group of congenital disorders with overlapping clinical manifestations that are caused by pathogenic germline or early somatic variants that result in the hyperactivation of the RAS/mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway.
