Tropomyosin 1 (TPM1) is a protein that constitutes the sarcomere filaments and is encoded by the TPM1 gene. The aim of the present study is to investigate the correlation between the 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the TPM1 gene and dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM).A total of 245 patients with DCM and 245 healthy controls were recruited with 5 ml of venous blood. Genomic DNA was extracted to analyze the TPM1 gene rs12148828, rs11558748, rs707602, rs6738, rs71 ...[more]
