The molecular landscape of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy across disease stages and genotypes.
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is marked by asymmetric cardiac wall thickening, hypercontractility, diastolic dysfunction, and fibrosis. Pathogenic sarcomere gene variants cause HCM, but comparable abnormalities occur in patients with unexplained disease, albeit with fewer adverse events. To investigate stage- and g...
