Cardiovascular Genetics is the field that investigates the influence of genetic factors on the structure, function, and diseases of the heart and vascular system. It examines how heritable gene mutations, polymorphisms, and epigenetic modifications contribute to conditions such as congenital heart defects, cardiomyopathies, arrhythmias, atherosclerosis, and hypertension. Understanding these genetic influences allows identification of individuals at risk, enabling personalized approaches to prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. Researchers use advanced techniques including genome-wide association studies (GWAS), next-generation sequencing, and functional genomics to uncover genetic variants and pathways that regulate cardiovascular function and susceptibility to disease. Insights from cardiovascular genetics inform precision medicine, therapeutic development, and lifestyle interventions, improving patient care and outcomes. By integrating molecular genetics with clinical cardiology, this field enhances understanding of cardiovascular biology, reveals mechanisms underlying heart and vascular disorders, and drives innovations in management strategies, ultimately contributing to better population health and individualized patient care.
