Abstract

Abstract. This study evaluates the profound role of genetic susceptibility in the pathogenesis and progression of pulmonary heart disease, clinically identified as cor pulmonale. Traditional paradigms have heavily emphasized environmental and acquired factors, yet contemporary molecular evidence demonstrates a strong genetic basis underlying individual variations in disease severity. This article provides a comprehensive analysis of genetic predispositions in conditions associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and pulmonary arterial hypertension. Particular emphasis is placed on the regulatory functions of SERPINA1, the angiotensin-converting enzyme gene, interleukin-6, and the serotonin transporter gene. Furthermore, the transforming growth factor-beta and bone morphogenetic protein signaling pathways are extensively reviewed, with a focus on the BMPR2 gene. Through a synthesis of recent clinical and molecular genetic data, the critical importance of gene-environment interactions in the complex pathogenesis of cor pulmonale is delineated.
