Regression of pressure-induced left ventricular hypertrophy is characterized by a distinct gene expression profile

This study demonstrates an effective model for characterizing left ventricular hypertrophy and reveals that regression is genomically distinct from its development. Further examination of these expression profiles will broaden our understanding of left ventricular hypertrophy and provide a novel therapeutic paradigm focused on promoting regression of left ventricular hypertrophy and not just halting its progression.
