Abstract:
Myocarditis, an inflammatory condition of weakened heart muscles often triggered by a variety of causes, that can result in heart failure and sudden death. Novel ways to enhance our understanding of myocarditis pathogenesis is available through newer modalities (omics). In this review, we examine the roles of various biomolecules and associated functional pathways across genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics in the pathogenesis of myocarditis. Our analysis further explores the reproducibility and variability intrinsic to omics studies, underscoring the necessity and significance of employing a multi-omics approach to gain profound insights into myocarditis pathogenesis. This integrated strategy not only enhances our understanding of the disease, but also confirms the critical importance of a holistic multi-omics approach in disease analysis.
