Sudden cardiac death in young athletes: Literature review of molecular basis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Intense athletic training and competition can rarely result in sudden cardiac death (SCD). Despite the introduction of pre-participation cardiovascular screening, especially among young competitive athletes, sport-related SCD remains a debated issue ...

Time spent with cats is never wasted: Lessons learned from feline acromegalic cardiomyopathy, a naturally occurring animal model of the human disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BackgroundIn humans, acromegaly due to a pituitary somatotrophic adenoma is a recognized cause of increased left ventricular (LV) mass. Acromegalic cardiomyopathy is incompletely understood, and represents a major cause of morbidity and mortality.

Restrictive cardiomyopathy and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy overlap: the importance of the phenotype

open access: yesCardiogenetics, 2012
Restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) is defined on the basis of the haemodynamic finding of restrictive ventricular physiology. However, restrictive ventricular pathophysiology is also a feature of other subtypes of cardiomyopathy, including hypertrophic ...

Generation of three TTN knock-out human induced pluripotent stem cell lines using CRISPR/Cas9 system

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2022
TTN mutations are the common genetic cause for various types of cardiomyopathies (e.g., dilated cardiomyopathy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, restrictive cardiomyopathy, and arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy) and skeletal myopathies.

Survival of patients with cardiomyopathies [PDF]

open access: yesБългарска кардиология, 2021
Cardiomyopathies are a heterogeneous group of diseases. The main pathogenetic mechanism is myocardial damage due to genetic mutations. Cardiomyopathies are one of the leading causes of heart failure, sudden cardiac death, and life-threatening arrhythmias.

Significance of myocardial tenascin-C expression in left ventricular remodelling and long-term outcome in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Aim Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) has a variety of causes, and no useful approach to predict left ventricular (LV) remodelling and long-term outcome has yet been established.

Amino Acid Changes at Arginine 204 of Troponin I Result in Increased Calcium Sensitivity of Force Development. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Mutations in human cardiac troponin I (cTnI) have been associated with restrictive, dilated, and hypertrophic cardiomyopathies. The most commonly occurring residue on cTnI associated with familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (FHC) is arginine (R), which ...

Desmin-related cardiomyopathy presenting as restrictive cardiomyopathy: A case report with review of literature

open access: yesJournal of the Practice of Cardiovascular Sciences, 2016
Isolated cardiac involvement due to deposition of desmin is a rare cause of restrictive cardiomyopathy due to pathogenic mutation in desmin related genes.

Molecular analysis of sarcomeric and non-sarcomeric genes in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common genetic heart disorder characterized by unexplained left ventricle hypertrophy associated with non-dilated ventricular chambers.

A Case of Rare Inherited Restrictive Cardiomyopathy With Severe Biatrial Enlargement

open access: yesJACC: Case Reports, 2019
We describe a case of inherited restrictive cardiomyopathy in a patient presenting with severe biatrial enlargement. We review the evaluation and management of restrictive cardiomyopathy with a focus on genetic etiologies.
