Abstract excerpt
As a prevalent primary myocardial disease, dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) represents the most common cause of heart failure in the young and the most frequent indication for cardiac transplantation. Aggregating evidence highlights the genetic basis of DCM. However, due to substantial genetic heterogeneity, the genetic defects of DCM in most cases remain elusive. In the current investigation, the entire coding exons...
