Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the last few years, we have witnessed growing knowledge of the genetic basis of cardiomyopathies and their clinical as well as imaging characteristics, which contributes to a more personalized patient approach; however, tailored therapies that could alter or revert phenotypes are lacking in most genetic cardiomyopathies. Contributing to these is the persisting knowledge gap concerning pathophysiological processes involved in the cardiomyopathy remodeling of heterogeneous, rare, and complex cardiomyopathies.
In this Special Issue, entitled "Metabolic and Genetic Bases of Cardiomyopathies", we welcome articles (clinical reports, case series, and human tissue models) on genetic cardiomyopathies that report changes in imaging, serum, histological, or omic (e.g., metabolomic) biomarkers that put the cardiac remodeling process into perspective. These disease surrogate biomarkers could contribute to developing new diagnoses and prognostic tools or identifying new therapeutic targets.

Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Cardiogenetics is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1400 CHF (Swiss Francs).
