Industrial pollutans and epigenetic factors associated with cardiomyopathies

The article presents a review of current scientific articles related to a few particular questions of molecular-genetic and epigenetic pathogenesis of some cardiomyopathy types that can be the object of interest assuming potential associations with pathophysiological mechanisms of pollutants and industrial toxins impaction. The possible benefits may arise from that kind of approach due to the fact that toxic agents in question are generally recognized at the moment as one of the cardiovascular disease onset and progression factors. The need for multidirectional theoretical developments targeting potential pharmacology methods aimed to at least partially eliminate such a challenge becomes more and more apparent. We focused on mTOR function chains, translation factor eIF4E and splicing regulator RBM20 interconnected with RAAS and T3 regulatory cascades. A part of our attention was also concentrated on cardiomyocytes methylome profiling in connection with pollutant toxicodynamics and cardiomyopathies pathogenesis.
