ABSTRACT:
Methods for diagnosing, determining the likelihood of developing cardiac disease by measuring the level of a truncated form of cardiac Troponin T are provided. Also provided are methods for preventing treating or ameliorating a symptom associated with cardiac disease by administering a therapeutically effective amount of a modulator of the posttranslational production of N-terminally truncated forms of cardiac troponin T.
