A Common <i>CD36</i> Variant and the Genetic Landscape of Dilated Cardiomyopathy in Individuals of African Ancestry

2026-05-27

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Importance</h4> Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a major cause of heart failure that disproportionately affects individuals of African genetic ancestry (AFR), among whom familial clustering of disease is also more pronounced relative to those of European ancestry (EUR). However, established monogenic DCM genes, identified primarily in EUR populations, explain a smaller proportion of DCM cases in AFR population...
