Natural history and clinical outcomes of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy from thin filament mutations Open
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) due to thick filament variants is more common; however, HCM due to thin filament variants (HCM‐Thin) may be associated with a more malignant phenotype with an increased risk of sudden cardiac death. The ai…

Thin filament cardiomyopathies: A review of genetics, disease mechanisms, and emerging therapeutics Open
All muscle contraction occurs due to the cyclical interaction between sarcomeric thin and thick filament proteins within the myocyte. The thin filament consists of the proteins actin, tropomyosin, Troponin C, Troponin I, and Troponin T. Mu…
