title: [Peculiarities of morphology and mechanisms of pathogenesis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy].
abstract: Understanding the molecular basis and cell mechanisms, clinical course, and treatment of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCMP) has progressed substantially in the last decade. The majority of genetic mutations associated with HCMP occur in genes encoding sarcomeric proteins, which are expressed only in cardiomyocytes. The spectrum of morphological features of HCMP includes: hypertrophy of myocardium, myocardial disarray, interstitial fibrosis, mitral valve abnormalities, and microvascular remodeling, is indicative of the involvement of other cell lineages. The link between sarcomeric gene defects and these HCM phenotypes remains elusive. Based on novel insights provided by cardiac developmental biology we can create new effective methods of treatment of this complex disease.
