Troponin I is a biomarker that responds to treatment interventions. Reductions in troponin I levels proved to reduce the risk of future CVD. [23] [24] [25] High sensitive troponin I used as a screening tool to assess a person's cardiovascular risk and has the potential to reduce the growing cost burden of the healthcare system. [26]
Elevated troponin levels are prognostically important in many of the conditions in which they are used for diagnosis. [36] In a community-based cohort study indicating the importance of silent cardiac damage, troponin I has been shown to predict mortality and first coronary heart disease event in men free from cardiovascular disease at baseline ...
[5] [6] [7] It is a tissue-specific subtype of troponin I, which in turn is a part of the troponin complex. Gene TNNI1 , troponin I type 1 (skeletal muscle, slow), also known as TNN1 and SSTNI , is located at 1q31.3 in the human chromosomal genome, encoding the slow twitch skeletal muscle isoform of troponin I (ssTnI), the inhibitory subunit of ...
Troponin I, cardiac muscle is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TNNI3 gene. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] It is a tissue-specific subtype of troponin I , which in turn is a part of the troponin complex . The TNNI3 gene encoding cardiac troponin I (cTnI) is located at 19q13.4 in the human chromosomal genome.
Cardiac muscle troponin T (cTnT) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TNNT2 gene. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] Cardiac TnT is the tropomyosin -binding subunit of the troponin complex, which is located on the thin filament of striated muscles and regulates muscle contraction in response to alterations in intracellular calcium ion concentration.

Troponin T binds to tropomyosin and helps position it on actin, [2] and together with the rest of the troponin complex, modulates contraction of striated muscle. [3] The cardiac subtype of troponin T is especially useful in the laboratory diagnosis of heart attack because it is released into the blood-stream when damage to heart muscle occurs. [4]
Transgenic hearts showed a significant delay in relaxation time as well as a decrease in the maximum rate of left ventricular relaxation. [12] A more aggressive overexpression of β-tropomyosin (to over 75% of total tropomyosin) in the heart causes death of mice 10–14 days old, along with cardiac abnormalities, suggesting that the normal ...
