Cardiomyopathies and Related Changes in Contractility of Human Heart Muscle

Cardiomyopathies and Related Changes in Contractility of Human Heart Muscle

About half of hypertrophic and dilated cardiomyopathies cases have been recognized as genetic diseases with mutations in sarcomeric proteins. The sarcomeric proteins are involved in cardiomyocyte contractility and its regulation, and play a structural role. Mutations in non-sarcomeric proteins may i...
