Key result
The analysis of microRNAs-21, 29a, and 133a is proposed as a potential future biomarker strategy for the early diagnosis and prediction of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and sudden cardiac death risk.
Why the study?
Methods for early diagnosis, screening, and predicting severe disease courses in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy are lacking, and existing risk models such as HCM Risk-SCD remain imperfect.
The study of microRNAs-21, 29a, and 133a may provide a new method for early diagnosis and risk prediction of sudden cardiac death in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
Hypothesis-generating for miRNA profiling in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; prospective validation required before clinical consideration.
For many years, cardiovascular diseases have occupied and continue to occupy leading positions due to mortality and disability of the adult working-age population. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common variant of cardiomyopathy, its prevalence among the general population worldwide is 0.2% (1 in 500 adults). The study of the disease has been taking place for quite a long time, the half-century history of studying the problem of HCMP reflects a significant evolution of knowledge in matters of etiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, clinical course and prognosis, variants of the course of the disease, however, there are still no methods of early diagnosis that could be used as a possible screening of this condition in the early stages and forecasting its more severe course. New methods could make it possible to diagnose this condition at an early stage and predict a possible course of its course, thereby preventing such a formidable complication as sudden cardiac death (SCD). At the moment, there is a prediction model (HCM Risk-SCD) for the risk of SCD, based on the results of instrumental research methods and anamnesis data of a particular patient, but this model is not perfect enough, and therefore it is gaining great popularity and the search for various biomarkers continues based on well-known scientific achievements in the field of genomics and transcriptomics. Perhaps in the near future, the study of the levels of certain microRNAs, which have already proven their affinity for the degree of myocardial hypertrophy, will become a new milestone in the study of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

E.I. et al. (2024) conducted a review in Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Analysis of microRNAs-21, 29a, 133a was evaluated. The analysis of microRNAs-21, 29a, and 133a is proposed as a potential future biomarker strategy for the early diagnosis and prediction of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and sudden cardiac death risk.
