Genetics Primer for the General Cardiologist Genetic Testing for Potentially Lethal, Highly Treatable Inherited Cardiomyopathies/Channelopathies in Clinical Practice
T he molecular millennium has bestowed researchers with the essential tools to identify the underlying genetic substrates for thousands of genetic disorders, most of which are rare and follow mendelian inheritance patterns. The genetic bases of potentially lethal and heritable cardiomyop-athies and cardiac channelopathies, including hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM...
متن کاملInherited cardiomyopathies.
Editor—It was interesting to read Staikou and colleagues' 1 excellent review of Perioperative management of hereditary arrhythmogenic syndromes. This group of disorders seems to have previously been under represented in mainstream anaesthetic literature. The collective incidence of the group of disorders that are described means that all consultant anaesthetists will have anaesthetized a number...

متن کاملInherited cardiomyopathies.
Copyright © 2011 Massachusetts Medical Society. I nherited cardiomyopathies are a major cause of heart disease in all age groups, often with an onset in adolescence or early adult life. Not only the patients but also their families can be severely burdened by these illnesses. More than 20 years ago, the first “disease gene” for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy was identified.1,2 This finding led to ...
متن کاملFeline genetics: clinical applications and genetic testing.
DNA testing for domestic cat diseases and appearance traits is a rapidly growing asset for veterinary medicine. Approximately 33 genes contain 50 mutations that cause feline health problems or alterations in the cat's appearance. A variety of commercial laboratories can now perform cat genetic diagnostics, allowing both the veterinary clinician and the private owner to obtain DNA test results. ...
