Myosin Heavy Chain 9 (MYH9)-Related Congenital Macrothrombocytopenia [PDF]
Myosin heavy chain 9 (MYH9)-related hereditary macrothrombocytopenia is caused by mutation of the MYH9 gene encoding the heavy chain A of non-muscle myosin of class II. We present a case that emphasizes the importance of awareness of rare disorders which could potentially avoid over-investigation, especially in benign conditions.

HIF-1alpha Deficiency Attenuates the Cardiomyogenesis of Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells. [PDF]
Cardiac cell formation, cardiomyogenesis, is critically dependent on oxygen availability. It is known that hypoxia, a reduced oxygen level, modulates the in vitro differentiation of pluripotent cells into cardiomyocytes via hypoxia inducible factor ...

Isoenergetic Dietary Protein Restriction Decreases Myosin Heavy Chain IIx Fraction and Myosin Heavy Chain Production in Humans [PDF]
The synthesis of muscle protein is restrained during dietary protein restriction. This is widely understood to vary quantitatively with the degree of nutritional deprivation, but there has been little discussion of qualitative changes in muscle protein deriving from dietary protein restriction.

Congenital thrombocytopenia with nephritis: The first case of MYH9 related disorder in Serbia [PDF]
Introduction. The group of autosomal dominant disorders - Epstein syndrome, Sebastian syndrome, Fechthner syndrome and May-Hegglin anomaly - are characterised by thrombocytopenia with giant platelets, inclusion bodies in granulocytes and ...

Early changes in rat diaphragm biology with mechanical ventilation [PDF]
To better characterize the effects of 24-hour mechanical ventilation on diaphragm, the expression of myogenic transcription factors, myosin heavy chains, and sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum calcium-ATPase pumps was examined in rats.

Mutation of Perinatal Myosin Heavy Chain [PDF]
Veugelers et al. (July 29 issue)1 report on patients with the trismus–pseudocamptodactyly syndrome as having a “Carney complex variant.” Among more than 500 patients with the Carney complex in our database, there are none with the trismus–pseudocamptodactyly syndrome.2,3...

The Role of Dietary Protein Intake and Resistance Training on Myosin Heavy Chain Expression
During resistance training the muscle undergoes many changes. Possibly the most profound and significant changes are those that occur in the muscles contractile proteins. Increases in these contractile proteins are one of the primary factors contributing

Differential expression of skeletal muscle genes following administration of clenbuterol to exercised horses. [PDF]
BackgroundClenbuterol, a beta2-adrenergic receptor agonist, is used therapeutically to treat respiratory conditions in the horse. However, by virtue of its mechanism of action it has been suggested that clenbuterol may also have repartitioning affects in

Skeletal muscle and fiber type-specific intramyocellular lipid accumulation in obese mice
In obesity, accumulation of lipid droplets in skeletal muscle fibers and a shift towards fast muscle fiber types can both contribute to insulin resistance.
