The results from PCR demonstrated that the mRNA expression levels of NPPA, SFRP4, DSC1, NEB, and FRZB were significantly higher in the DCM group compared to the healthy group while the mRNA expression levels of SERPINE1, SERPINA3, ANKRD2, XRCC4, and S100A8 in the DCM group were statistically lower than those in the healthy group (Figures 3(a)–3(j)). Here, S100A8 is linked to familial dilated cardiomyopathy.
