Abstract 17517: Genetics of Left Ventricular Noncompaction Cardiomyopathy

TL;DR: It is shown that LVNC has a substantial genetic component and new candidate genes for a functional dissection of their contribution to cardiac development and as potential therapeutic target are suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genotype Complements the Phenotype: Identification of the Pathogenicity of an LMNA Splice Variant by Nanopore Long-Read Sequencing in a Large DCM Family

TL;DR: A combination of NGS, human-induced pluripotent-stem-cell-derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs) and nanopore long-read sequencing is used to identify the causal variant in a multi-generational pedigree of DCM and reveals the biological significance of the variant c.356+1G>A, which generates a novel 5′ splice site in exon 1 of the cardiac isomer of LMNA.
Journal ArticleDOI

Indirect epigenetic testing identifies a diagnostic signature of cardiomyocyte DNA methylation in heart failure

TL;DR: In this article , the authors determined whether patient plasma confers indirect phenotypic, transcriptional, and/or epigenetic alterations to ex vivo cardiomyocytes to mirror the failing human myocardium.
