The effect of recombinant caspase 3 on myofibrillar proteins in porcine skeletal muscle

open access: yesAnimal, 2008
The objective of this study was to investigate the potential role of the caspase protease family in meat tenderisation by examining if caspase 3 was capable of causing myofibril protein degradation.

Lipid composition of heart muscle homogenate

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1965
Using cytochrome oxidase and esterase assays as a guide, mitochondria and microsomes were prepared from ox heart homogenate with about 25% cross-contamination of phospholipid.

Cooperation between myofibril growth and costamere maturation in human cardiomyocytes

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Costameres, as striated muscle-specific cell adhesions, anchor both M-lines and Z-lines of the sarcomeres to the extracellular matrix. Previous studies have demonstrated that costameres intimately participate in the initial assembly of myofibrils ...

Isolation and Mechanical Measurements of Myofibrils from Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Cardiomyocytes

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2016
Summary: Tension production and contractile properties are poorly characterized aspects of excitation-contraction coupling of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs).

Role of Myofibrillar Protein Catabolism in Development of Glucocorticoid Myopathy: Aging and Functional Activity Aspects

open access: yesMetabolites, 2016
Muscle weakness in corticosteroid myopathy is mainly the result of the destruction and atrophy of the myofibrillar compartment of fast-twitch muscle fibers.

Tension-driven multi-scale self-organisation in human iPSC-derived muscle fibers

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Human muscle is a hierarchically organised tissue with its contractile cells called myofibers packed into large myofiber bundles. Each myofiber contains periodic myofibrils built by hundreds of contractile sarcomeres that generate large mechanical forces.

Independent regulation of Z-lines and M-lines during sarcomere assembly in cardiac myocytes revealed by the automatic image analysis software sarcApp

open access: yeseLife, 2023
Sarcomeres are the basic contractile units within cardiac myocytes, and the collective shortening of sarcomeres aligned along myofibrils generates the force driving the heartbeat.

Myofibrils put the squeeze on nuclei [PDF]

open access: yesNature Cell Biology, 2017
During muscle development, nuclei travel from the centre of the myofibre to the periphery, a process defective in certain diseases. A new study reveals that this movement is due to centripetal forces imposed on nuclei by the crosslinking and contraction of myofibrils.

Early Clinical, Imaging, and Pathological Characteristics of SRPK3/TTN‐Digenic Myopathy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy was recently established as a skeletal muscle myopathy caused by digenic inheritance. This study characterizes the early clinical presentation of SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy in one previously reported and seven newly identified pediatric patients.
