The aim is to uncover molecular mechanisms behind inherited cardiovascular diseases and their potential implications for therapy.
Applied molecular genetic tools to inherited cardiovascular disease forms
Examined defects in ion channels, contractile proteins, structural proteins, and signaling molecules
Reviewed genetic testing options and emerging therapies
Identified key molecular players in cardiac arrhythmias, cardiomyopathies, and vascular diseases
Highlighted the availability of genetic testing for certain inherited cardiovascular diseases
Indicated potential for developing mechanism-based therapies in the future

May guide genetic testing in inherited cardiovascular diseases; leaves open mechanism-based therapy development pending validation.

Keating et al. (1996) studied this question.
