AAV9-cBIN1 gene therapy rescues chronic heart failure due to ischemic cardiomyopathy in a canine model

Abstract excerpt

Ischemic cardiomyopathy and resultant heart failure (HF) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Downregulation of cardiac bridging integrator 1 (cBIN1), a membrane scaffolding protein responsible for organizing t-tubules and organizing the calcium handing apparatus, occurs in progressive HF. Therefore, gene therapy upregulating cBIN1 production may rescue failing muscle and clinical HF....
