Drp1 overexpression induces desmin disassembling and drives kinesin-1 activation promoting mitochondrial trafficking in skeletal muscle

open access: yesCell Death and Differentiation, 2020
Mitochondria change distribution across cells following a variety of pathophysiological stimuli. The mechanisms presiding over this redistribution are yet undefined.

Desmin forms toxic, seeding-competent amyloid aggregates that persist in muscle fibers

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance Protein aggregation and the deposition of amyloid is a common feature in neurodegeneration, but can also be seen in degenerative muscle diseases known as myofibrillar myopathies (MFMs).

Role of calpains in promoting desmin filaments depolymerization and muscle atrophy.

Biochimica et biophysica acta. Molecular cell research, 2020
Muscle atrophy is an inevitable sequel of fasting, denervation, aging, exposure to microgravity, and many human diseases including, cancer, type-2 diabetes, and renal failure.

Desmin mutations result in mitochondrial dysfunction regardless of their aggregation properties.

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta - Molecular Basis of Disease, 2020
Desmin, being a major intermediate filament of muscle cells, contributes to stabilization and positioning of mitochondria. Desmin mutations have been reported in conjunction with skeletal myopathies accompanied by mitochondrial dysfunction.
