Genetic polymorphisms associated with heart failure: A literature review
نویسندگان
چکیده
OBJECTIVE To review possible associations reported between genetic variants and the risk, therapeutic response and prognosis of heart failure. METHODS Electronic databases (PubMed, Web of Science and CNKI) were systematically searched for relevant papers, published between January 1995 and February 2015. RESULTS Eighty-two articles covering 29 genes and 39 polymorphisms were identified. CONCLUSION Genetic association studies of heart failure have been highly controversial. There may be interaction or synergism of several genetic variants that together result in the ultimate pathological phenotype for heart failure.

The requirement of varying doses of warfarin for different individuals can be explained by environmental and genetic factors. We evaluated the frequency of vitamin K epoxide reductase complex subunit 1 (VKORC1) and cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) variants together with patientdemographic characteristics and investigated their association with warfarin dose requirement with the ob...

Heart failure (HF) is a complex disease, which involves several physiopathological mechanisms and different genetic polymorphisms. The adrenergic system is directly related to this pathology, as it participates in cardiovascular autoregulation and has a crucial role in the deterioration of cardiac function. The beta-blockers appeared as a great advance in cardiology for the treatment of HF; how...

Atherosclerosis is known as an inflammatory disease that can affect any vessel in the body. The occurrence of atherosclerosis in heart vessels is called coronary artery disease (CAD). CAD is one of the most significant causes of morbidity and mortality in developed countries. Different genetic and environmental factors can cause cardiovascular diseases, such as age, weight, sex, and low high-de...

It has been recognized that patients with Cyanotic Congenital Heart Disease (CCHD) show significant bleeding tendency which can be secondary to coagulopathies in these patients. Some coagulation abnormalities are thrombocytopenia, factor deficiencies, fibrinolysis and Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIC). According to high prevalence of CCHD and major operations in theses patients, th...
