Impact of multiple gene mutations in determining the severity of cardiomyopathy and heart failure.

Abstract excerpt

1. Familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (FHC) is a primary cardiac disorder characterized by myocardial hypertrophy that demonstrates substantial diversity in both genetic causes and clinical manifestations. 2. Clinical heterogeneity can be explained by the causative gene (at least 13 have been identified to date), the position of the amino acid residue affected by a mutation within the protein (over 450...
