Article abstract

We studied the dependence of climatotherapy effectiveness in patients with chronic heart failure (functional classes 0-II) on Ca(2+)-ATPase, phospholamban, beta1-adrenoceptor, and insulin-like growth factor 1 gene polymorphisms and possible interaction of these genes during the realization of the effect of climatotherapy. The effectiveness of climatotherapy depended on polymorphism of the studied genes; the maximum effect was attained in patients with the GG polymorphism of the Ca(2+)-ATPase gene, GT polymorphism of the phospholamban gene, ArgGly polymorphism of the beta1-adrenoceptor gene, and 19/19 polymorphism of the insulin-like growth factor 1 gene. We demonstrated additive interaction of Ca(2+)-ATPase and beta1-adrenoceptor genes during the realization of the cardiotonic effect of climatotherapy.
