We are proud to announce that our research project GEAM: yield of GEnetic testing in Arrhythmic Myocarditis, led by Dr. Giovanni Peretto, was funded with the Early Career Award by Fondazione Regionale per la Ricerca Biomedica (FRRB) and Regione Lombardia. hsr.it/news/2024/luglio/band…

We propose a research project aimed at: 1) defining the prevalence of CGVs with arrhythmic myocarditis, with a special focus on gender differences; 2) describing the prognostic value of CGVs; (...)

3) identifying gene expression profiles associated with ventricular arrhythmias through transcriptomics on cardiac tissue, in order to investigate possible therapeutic targets for personalized care.

We explored pentraxin 3 (PTX3), an acute phase protein, as a potential biomarker in plasma and cardiac biopsies of patients with myocarditis. #myocarditis link.springer.com/article/10…

💡Cardiac tissue analysis revealed PTX3 expression in all patients, with viral myocarditis exhibiting higher signal intensity than autoimmune myocarditis, and with a predominant localization in cardiomyocytes.

💡Abnormal plasma PTX3 was associated with systolic dysfunction and heart failure at presentation. Interestingly, patients who recovered by 12 months had higher baseline PTX3 levels. Our preliminary data support the potential use of PTX3 as a biomarker in myocarditis.

A very important study. Inflammation in the heart, in the context of LV dysfunction, cannot be a good thing. More data is needed, but this study gives us some light #cardiacimmunology
Use of multimodal imaging in genetic cardiomyopathies may allow for the identification of myocardial inflammation potentially responsive to immunomodulatory therapy. Read the new #JACCBTS study by @GiovanniPeretto et al here: bit.ly/3Y7BTSI #HeartFailure #CardioRheum

Our new pilot report of 25 patients with genetic cardiomyopathy and biopsy-proven myocardial inflammation. M-Infl was characterized by multimodal imaging, including CMR and PET, and treated with immunomodulatory therapy for the first time in NGS patients. doi.org/10.1016/j.jacbts.202…

From bedside to the bench, the role of myocardial inflammation (M-Infl) is emerging in the pathophysiology, phenotype, and treatment of traditionally genetic cardiomyopathies (DCM/ACM). Check our "hot off the press" review! doi.org/10.3390/biom13040646
