Abstract excerpt
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) can be caused by a MYH7 R403Q gene mutation, which drives pathological cardiac remodeling and may ultimately lead to heart failure. Here, we sought to examine the effects of this mutation on cardiac mitochondrial function in a Yucatan mini-pig model of genetic HCM. Activity of key mitochondrial enzymes, citrate synthase and β-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase, was significantly...
