Abstract excerpt
Myocardial H2 receptor activation contributes to heart failure (HF) in preclinical models, and H2 receptor antagonists are associated with decreased HF incidence. This study evaluated whether H2 histamine receptor (HRH2) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are associated with HF incidence and whether myocardial transcript abundance is associated with HF recovery. The association of SNPs in HRH2 with incident...
