The pathogenesis of heart failure associated with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) may result in part from adenosine triphosphate (ATP) dysregulation in the myocardium. Under these conditions, diabetes-associated protein in insulin-sensitive tissue (DAPIT), which is encoded by the upregulated during skeletal muscle growth 5 (USMG5) gene, plays a crucial role in energy production by mitochondrial ATP synthase. To determine whether USMG5 is related to the development of heart failure, we performed cli ...[more]
