Additionally, some of these concordantly enriched pathways were similar for both idiopathic dilated and ischaemic cardiomyopathy, including insulin signalling pathways, SCF–Kit signalling, NGF signalling, PI3K signalling, and AKT signalling, suggesting common mechanistic signatures that are relevant to the recovery of both cardiomyopathies. This evidence concerns the gene NGF and cardiomyopathy.
