New research by NHLI & MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS) reveals how our genes influence cardiac trabeculae, a network of heart muscle fibres, providing new insights into the heart’s adaptive response to disease 🫀 Kathryn McGurk Declan O'Regan James Ware Sean Zheng Arun Sau imperial.ac.uk/news/258501/ne…

Research | The inner heart surface has a meshwork of muscles called trabeculae. McGurk et al. report the genetic regulation of heart trabeculae across common and rare variants, revealing pathways implicated in heart development and cell fate. 👉 rdcu.be/d09Jt

Estimated population penetrance for variants associated with cardiomyopathies are now displayed alongside cardiac allele frequencies. This information is useful when considering secondary findings. Kathryn McGurk James Ware and @cvgenomics | #cardiogen

Dilated cardiomyopathy is diagnosed twice as often in males, but sex-specific diagnostics can reduce this bias. Understanding genetic & environmental factors is crucial for equitable care! James Ware Brian Halliday Kathryn McGurk Antonio de Marvao Chang Lu ahajournals.org/doi/full/10.11…
