Abstract excerpt
To obtain insights into the molecular pathogenesis of heart failure in humans, we have analyzed the expression profiles of>12,000 genes in a total of 17 human specimens of right atrial myocytes. From this large data set, we here tried to identify gene clusters, expression level of which is correlated precisely with clinical parameter values of cardiac function. We could reveal that cardiac myocytes with normal...
