Haptoglobin Gene Expression and Anthracycline-related Cardiomyopathy in Childhood Cancer Survivors

In this study RNA-Seq was performed in anthracycline- exposed childhood cancer survivors who had cardiomyopathy (cases) matched to those without cardiomyopathy (controls) to understand the pathogenesis of anthrcaycline-related cardiomyopathy Overall design: Peripheral whole blood transcriptome assessed by RNA-Seq on Illumina HiSeq in 40 cases and 64 matched controls
