Homozygous missense MYBPC3 Pro873His mutation associated with increased risk for heart failure development in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

Abstract: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a primary autosomal‐dominant disorder of the myocardium with variable expressivity and penetrance. Occasionally, homozygous sarcomere genetic variants emerge while genotyping HCM patients. In these cases, a more severe HCM phenotype is generally seen. Here, we report a case of HCM that was diagnosed clinically at 39 years of age. Initial symptoms were shortness of breath during exertion. Successively, he developed a wide array of severe clinical manifestations, which progre… Show more

“…MYBPC3 mutations present a high risk for HF [ 84 ]. Kissopoulou et al (2018) showed that homozygous missense MYBPC3 Pro873His mutation in human HCM is associated with an increased risk of HF development [ 85 ]. Chronic administration of β-adrenergic agonists, such as isoproterenol, has been shown to aggravate HCM and induce HF in HCM models of disease [ 86 ].…”

“…There is no large randomized study regarding the natural course of HCM in patients carrying more than one pathogenic or likely pathogenic allele. However, many particular clinical cases, case-control and observational studies have pointed out that the role of a second genetic hit can be crucial in the age of HCM manifestation ( Wessels et al, 2015 ; Dzemeshkevich et al, 2018 ; Kissopoulou et al, 2018 ). Prospective genetic counseling was also challenging.…”

“…The presence of bi-allelic truncating MYBPC3 mutations in patients is linked to neonatal cardiomyopathy, and can result in heart failure and mortality within the first year of life. These findings suggest that a gene-dosage effect could be responsible for the manifestation of the disease at younger ages [ 78 , 79 , 80 ].…”
