Most of the laboratory workup for dilated cardiomyopathy is usually targeted towards detecting the cause.[1]
- Thyroid function tests
- Comprehensive metabolic panel
- Workup for anemia (CBC and iron studies)
- Urine toxicology screening
- Some drugs as cocaine and amphetamine increase the risk of dilated cardiomyopathy
- Genetic screening
- Usually reserved as the last step.
- May identify genetic/inherited causes of dilated cardiomyopathy.
Other laboratory investigations may target the severity of the condition or its effect on the cardiac function.
- Cardiac biomarkers (troponin and CK-MB)
- Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP)
Other biomarkers currently under investigation include:
- Uric acid (persistently elevated)
- Osteopontin
- Serum carbohydrate antigen-125 (Ca-125)[2]
- Pro-inflammatory cytokines (as tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6)[3]
- Soluble ST2 (sST2): A cytokine released by cardiac fibroblasts and vascular endothelial cells upon biomechanical stress
- A recent study found that sST2 can predict the risk of heart failure in dilated cardiomyopathy.[4]
- Growth and differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15)
- Showed a negative correlation with left ventricular ejection fraction and a positive correlation with NYHA heart failure class.[5]
- Serum immunoglobulin free light chain (FLC) κ and λ
- Associated with the risk of heart failure and mortality in dilated cardiomyopathy patients.[6]
