Ets2 Is an Activity‐Dependent Transcriptional Regulator of a Fast‐Twitch Muscle Program
Ets2 is a transcription factor rapidly (24 h) upregulated in skeletal muscle by fast 150 Hz, but not slow 20 Hz, stimulation patterns. Ets2 selectively translocates to nuclei of slow soleus muscle when stimulated by fast‐patterned, but not slow‐patterned, activity. Ets2 binds to a consensus DNA sequence in the troponin I fast intronic enhancer (TnIFIRE)

In this research article, Mansoor and coworkers present a novel device that applies controlled mechanical stimuli to cardiomyocytes using pressure‐driven membrane deformation. By exposing cells to physiologically and pathologically relevant loading conditions, the platform reproduces distinct structural, functional and molecular responses associated ...

Differential distribution of myosin isoforms among the myofibrils of individual developing muscle fibers [PDF]
Myosin was localized in situ in the posthatch chicken pectoralis using isoform-specific mAbs. The distribution among myofibrils was demonstrated by immunofluorescence and by immunogold EM.

Glucose affects the morphology of mitochondria and myofibrils of muscular cells.
(A-E). Electron micrographs of muscular cells of worms that were exposed from L1 to L4 larval stages to glucose 20, 40, 80 or 100 mM that show damaged mitochondria. (A) Mitochondria and myofibrils show a compact structure in control worms.

Vascular Aβ40 corrupts GRP78 phase behavior in brain endothelial cells, sustaining IRE1α–TRAF2–JNK signaling and driving apoptosis, tight junction loss, and blood–brain barrier failure in cerebral amyloid angiopathy. Pharmacological IRE1α inhibition restores vascular integrity, reduces leakage, and improves functional outcomes, revealing a targetable ...

Micromechanical function of myofibrils isolated from skeletal and cardiac muscles of the zebrafish
The zebrafish is a potentially important and cost-effective model for studies of development, motility, regeneration, and inherited human diseases. The object of our work was to show whether myofibrils isolated from zebrafish striated muscle represent a ...

We developed methods to characterize soft contractile actuators using force–displacement measurements in the passive state and the total force in the active state and define the operational range of thermal, electrothermal, and pneumatic muscles. A graphical method enables the selection of an actuator based on the required mechanical force–displacement

Overview on Epstein–Barr Virus–Host Interactions With a Focus on Host Cell Transcriptome Alterations
ABSTRACT The Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) belongs to the gamma subgroup of human herpesviruses. EBV is particularly lymphotropic regarding its latency, meaning that it preferentially targets lymphocytes as its immunological niche. During the establishment of the complex virus–host relationships, the virus influences the human host cell transcriptome ...

MicroRNA–mRNA Networks in Skeletal Muscle of Tailored Pig Models for Dystrophinopathies
ABSTRACT Background Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) are X‐linked dystrophinopathies caused by mutations in the dystrophin (DMD) gene. A common DMD‐causing mutation in humans is exon 52 deletion (DMDΔ52), which disrupts the reading frame and abolishes dystrophin expression.
