Popis: Desmin expression depends on desmin messenger RNA (mRNA) and ubiquitin proteasome system. This process is poorly understood in dilated cardiomyopathy. The aim of the study was to investigate whether changes of desmin mRNA and ubiquitin expression correlate with types of desmin expression in cardiomyocytes. Endomyocardial biopsy was performed in 60 patients (85% men, mean age 46±14 years) with heart failure (HF; left ventricular ejection fraction
