DISCUSSION
The two main findings of our study are 1) Intramyocar- dial
lipid overload is a relatively common finding in non-ischemic SHARMA ET AL.
heart failure, especially in obese and diabetic patients; 2)
Intramyocardial lipid overload in the failing human heart is
associated with a distinct gene expression profile that is similar
to an animal model of lipotoxicity and cardiac dysfunction.
