Polygenic Risk Modifies Penetrance and Outcomes in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy: Insights from a US-Based Multi-Ancestry Cohort
2026-03-02
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) has traditionally been considered a Mendelian disease driven by pathogenic/likely pathogenic variants in sarcomere encoding genes (SARC-HCM-P/LP). However, these variants explain only one-third of the HCM cases, and variable penetrance suggests polygenic contributions. Existing HCM polygenic risk scores (PRSs) have been derived primarily from European a...
