Epigenetic-sensitive liquid biomarkers and personalised therapy in advanced heart failure: a focus on cell-free DNA and microRNAs

Abstract excerpt

Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) represents a common genetic cause of mechanical and/or electrical dysfunction leading to heart failure (HF) onset for which truncating variants in titin (TTN) gene result in the most frequent mutations. Moreover, myocyte and endothelial cell apoptosis is a key endophenotype underlying cardiac remodelling. Therefore, a deeper knowledge about molecular networks leading to acute injury...
