Human Genetics of Cardiomyopathies
The identification of a disease-causing variant in a patient diagnosed with cardiomyopathy allows for presymptomatic testing in at risk relatives.... -
De novo and inherited variants in coding and regulatory regions in genetic cardiomyopathies
BackgroundCardiomyopathies are a leading cause of progressive heart failure and sudden cardiac death; however, their genetic aetiology remains poorly...
-
Pathogenetics of Cardiomyopathy
AbstractThe review summarizes the current knowledge on the role that genetic factors play in primary or Mendelian cardiomyopathies (CMs) and certain...

Genome Editing and Myocardial Development
Congenital heart disease (CHD) has a strong genetic etiology, making it a likely candidate for therapeutic intervention using genetic editing.... -
Genetic testing in ambulatory cardiology clinics reveals high rate of findings with clinical management implications
PurposeCardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in adults in the United States, yet the benefits of genetic testing are not...
