| Abstract | The diagnosis of cardiomyopathies by endomyocardial biopsy analysis is the gold standard for confirmation of causative reasons but is failing if a sample does not contain the area of interest due to focal pathology. Biopsies are revealing an extract of the current situation of the heart muscle only, and the need for global organ-specific or systemic markers is obvious in order to minimize sampling errors. Global markers like specific gene expression signatures in myocardial tissue may therefore reflect the focal situation or condition of the whole myocardium. Besides gene expression profiles, microRNAs (miRNAs) represent a new group of stable biomarkers that are detectable both in tissue and body fluids. Such miRNAs may serve as cardiological biomarkers to characterize inflammatory processes, to confirm viral infections, and to differentiate various forms of infection. The predictive power of single miRNAs for diagnosis of complex diseases may be further increased if several distinctly deregulated candidates are combined to form a specific miRNA signature. Diagnostic systems that generate disease-related miRNA profiles are based on microarrays, bead-based oligo sorbent assays, or on assays based on real-time polymerase chain reactions and placed on microfluidic cards or nanowell plates. Multiparametric diagnostic systems that can measure differentially expressed miRNAs may become the diagnostic tool of the future due to their predictive value with respect to clinical course, therapeutic decisions, and therapy monitoring. We discuss here specific merits, limitations and the potential of currently available analytical platforms for diagnostics of heart muscle diseases based on miRNA profiling. Contains 34 references. Figure Modern diagnostics of cardiomyopathies will include multiparametric analysis of microRNA profiles in endomyocardial biopsies by real-time PCR or bead-based OLISA techniques. In contrast to high-throughput screening technologies diagnostic systems are realized by down-scaling sample volumes and simultaneous measurement of a limited number of stable disease related parameters. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
