Tumour necrosis factor alpha gene polymorphism: a predisposing factor to non-ischaemic myocardial dysfunction?

Heart (British Cardiac Society) - 1 Feb 2002

Densem C G, Hutchinson I V, Yonan N, Brooks N H

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha) is implicated in the pathophysiology of heart failure. Plasma TNF alpha is raised in patients with myocardial dysfunction in proportion to the symptoms. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether this genetic variant is over represented in heart transplant recipients. PATIENTS: 175 heart transplant recipients and a control group of 212 healthy volunteers were studied. The...
