Population-based variation in cardiomyopathy genes.
BACKGROUND Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and dilated cardiomyopathy arise from mutations in genes encoding sarcomere proteins including MYH7, MYBPC3, and TTN. Genetic diagnosis of cardiomyopathy relies on complete sequencing of the gene coding regions, and most pathogenic variation is rare. The 1000 Genomes Project is an ongoing consortium designed to deliver whole genome sequence information fro...
متن کاملPeripartum cardiomyopathy: population-based birth prevalence and 7-year mortality.
OBJECTIVE To estimate the birth prevalence and 7-year case-fatality rate of peripartum cardiomyopathy for a statewide population by applying the National Institutes of Health Workshop on Peripartum Cardiomyopathy definition, including echocardiographic criteria for left ventricular dysfunction. METHODS This was an epidemiologic study of residents of North Carolina experiencing an obstetric de...
متن کاملCardiac structural and sarcomere genes associated with cardiomyopathy exhibit marked intolerance of genetic variation.
BACKGROUND The clinical significance of variants in genes associated with inherited cardiomyopathies can be difficult to determine because of uncertainty regarding population genetic variation and a surprising amount of tolerance of the genome even to loss-of-function variants. We hypothesized that genes associated with cardiomyopathy might be particularly resistant to the accumulation of genet...
متن کاملRYR2, PTDSS1 and AREG genes are implicated in a Lebanese population-based study of copy number variation in autism
Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs) are a group of neurodevelopmental disorders characterized by ritualistic-repetitive behaviors and impaired verbal and non-verbal communication. Objectives were to determine the contribution of genetic variation to ASDs in the Lebanese. Affymetrix Cytogenetics Whole-Genome 2.7 M and CytoScan(™) HD Arrays were used to detect CNVs in 41 Lebanese autistic children a...
متن کاملJoint Analysis of the DGAT1, OPN and PPARGC1A Genes Effects on Variation of Milk Production and Composition in Holstein Cattle Population
The aim of this study was to investigate effects of DGAT1, OPN and PPARGC1A candidate genes on milk production traits in Iranian Holstein cattle. Several papers have studied single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and their association with economic traits in dairy cows, but the combined effect of these genes has not been examined in Iranian Holstein cattle population. Blood samples were collect...
