摘要Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy(HCM)is a major contributor to cardiovascular diseases(CVD),the leading cause of death globally.HCM can precipitate heart failure(HF)by causing the cardiac tissue to weaken and stretch,thereby impairing its pumping efficiency.Moreover,HCM increases the risk of atrial fibrillation,which in turn elevates the likelihood of thrombus formation and stroke.Given these significant clinical ramifications,research into the etiology and pathogenesis of HCM is intensifying at multiple levels.In this review,we discuss and synthesize the latest findings on HCM pathogenesis,drawing on key experimental studies conducted both in vitro and in vivo.We also offer our insights and perspectives on these mechanisms,while highlighting the limitations of current research.Advancing fundamental research in this area is essential for developing effective therapeutic interventions and enhancing the clinical management of HCM.
