Zebrafish inversin mutants develop scoliosis in the absence of laterality defects
Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Human mutations in INVERSIN are associated with nephronophthisis, variable penetrance of situs inversus and congenital heart disease. Inversin has been shown to localize to cilia and many of the patient phenotypes are attributed to disrupted cilia function.

Myosins and pathology: genetics and biology.
, 2002 This article summarizes current knowledge on the genetics and possible molecular mechanisms of human pathologies resulted from mutations within the genes encoding several myosin isoforms. Mutations within the genes encoding some myosin isoforms have been

Novel/ancient myosins in mammalian skeletal muscles: MYH7B and MYH15 [PDF]
, 2010 Myosin, the molecular motor responsible for muscle contraction, exists in multiple forms which dictate muscle properties, such as shortening velocity and contractile force.

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 942-954, April 2025.Abstract The immune system has long been recognized as a key driver in the progression of heart failure (HF). However, clinical trials targeting immune effectors have consistently failed to improve patient outcome across different HF aetiologies. The activation of the immune system in HF is complex, involving a broad network of pro‐inflammatory and ...

, 2000 In the previous study (Podlubnaya et al., 1999, J. Struc. Biol. 127, 1-15) Ca2+-induced reversible structural transitions in synthetic filaments of pure fast skeletal and cardiac muscle myosins were observed under rigor conditions (-Ca2+/+ Ca2+).

Kinetic Analysis of the Slow Skeletal Myosin MHC-1 Isoform from Bovine Masseter Muscle [PDF]
, 2007 Several heavy chain isoforms of class II myosins are found in muscle fibres and show a large variety of different mechanical activities. Fast myosins (myosin heavy chain (MHC)-II-2) contract at higher velocities than slow myosins (MHC-II-1, also known as

Cardiac remodelling in the era of the recommended four pillars heart failure medical therapy
ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1029-1044, April 2025.Abstract Cardiac remodelling is a key determinant of worse cardiovascular outcome in patients with heart failure (HF) and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). It affects both the left ventricle (LV) structure and function as well as the left atrium (LA) and the right ventricle (RV).

Functional Analysis of Myosin Mutations That Cause Familial Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
, 1998 We have studied the actin-activated ATPase activities of three mutations in the motor domain of the myosin heavy chain that cause familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

The effects of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors on the ‘forgotten’ right ventricle
ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1045-1058, April 2025.Abstract With the progress in diagnosis, treatment and imaging techniques, there is a growing recognition that impaired right ventricular (RV) function profoundly affects the prognosis of patients with heart failure (HF), irrespective of their left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).

Considerations for drug trials in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1095-1112, April 2025.Abstract Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a heterogeneous condition with potentially serious manifestations. Management has traditionally comprised therapies to palliate symptoms and implantable cardioverter‐defibrillators to prevent sudden cardiac death. The need for disease‐modifying therapies has been recognized for decades.
