Key result
Transcriptome analysis reveals key molecular mechanisms underlying degenerative mitral regurgitation.
Why the study?
Degenerative mitral valve regurgitation is the leading cause of mitral regurgitation requiring surgery, but its underlying pathological molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood.
Should not yet influence mitral regurgitation management; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation before therapeutic translation.
Objectives: In aging society, hospitalizations and mitral valve surgeries are becoming more common due to progressive mitral valve diseases that ultimately lead to heart failure. In developing countries, degenerative mitral valve regurgitation (DMVR) is the leading cause of mitral regurgitation requiring surgical treatment. Nevertheless, a more profound understanding of the underlying pathological processes via a molecular biology approach could improve clinical management. In this study, bioinformatic analyses were performed to elucidate the underlying pathophysiological molecular mechanisms using transcriptome data of atrial tissues from patients with DMVR.
