Inherited cardiomyopathies caused by troponin mutations
Genetic investigations of cardiomyopathy in the recent two decades have revealed a large number of mutations in the genes encoding sarcomeric proteins as a cause of inherited hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), or restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM). Most functional analyses of the effects of mutations on cardiac muscle contraction have revealed significant changes in ...
متن کاملThe value of troponin measurement in the prognosis of Covid 19 disease, a review study
Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2, which appeared in late 2019, can have negative effects on the cardiovascular system. Studies in different parts of the world indicate the importance of cardiac troponin as a predictor in coronary heart disease patients. Heart damage occurs frequently in Coronavirus 2 infection and is associated with a high risk of mortality in these patients. In people ...
متن کاملClinical and Prognostic Profiles of Cardiomyopathies Caused by Mutations in the Troponin T Gene.
INTRODUCTION AND AIMS Mutations in the troponin T gene (TTNT2) have been associated in small studies with the development of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy characterized by a high risk of sudden death and mild hypertrophy. We describe the clinical course of patients carrying mutations in this gene. METHODS We analyzed the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with mutations in the T...
متن کاملCardiac Troponin Measurement in the Critically Ill
Background: Elevated cardiac troponin (cTn) in the absence of acute coronary syndromes (ACS) is associated with increased mortality in critically ill patients. There are no evidence-based interventions that reduce mortality in this group. Objectives: We performed a retrospective investigation of the Veterans Administration Inpatient Evaluation Center database to determine whether drugs used in ...
متن کاملCardiomyopathies with Mixed and Inapparent Morphological Features in Cardiac Troponin I3 Mutation
The fact that different types of cardiomyopathies can be manifested by the same sarcomere protein gene mutation in a single family is well known. However, mixed features of different types of cardiomyopathies in a single patient have not been well appreciated. We identified a novel mutation in cardiac troponin I3 (Arg186Gly) in the present case, and two of the family members showed mixed morpho...
