Red Flags for Differentiating Desmosomal “Hot‐Phase” Cardiomyopathy From Acute Myocarditis
Background Desmosomal “hot‐phase” cardiomyopathy (HPC), characterized by bursts of myocardial inflammation mimicking acute myocarditis (AM), carries relevant risks of adverse outcomes. This study aimed to identify diagnostic “red flags” favoring HPC over

Envoplakin, periplakin and desmoplakin are cytoskeletal proteins that provide structural integrity within the skin and heart by resisting shear forces. Here we reveal the nature of unique hinges within their plakin domains that provides divergent degrees

Mechanical loading of desmosomes depends on the magnitude and orientation of external stress
Desmosomes are intercellular adhesion complexes that connect the intermediate filament cytoskeletons of neighboring cells but direct evidence for their load-bearing nature is lacking.

The disease mutation A77V in Ryanodine receptor RyR2 induces changes in energy conduction pathways in the protein [PDF]
Energetically responsive residues of the 217 amino acid N-terminal domain of the cardiac Ryanodine receptor RyR2 are identified by a simple elastic net model. These residues lie along a hydrogen bonded path through the protein.

Regulation of desmocollin transcription in mouse preimplantation embryos
The molecular mechanisms regulating the biogenesis of the first desmosomes to form during mouse embryogenesis have been studied. A sensitive modification of a reverse transcriptase-cDNA amplification procedure has been used to detect transcripts of the ...
