Perinatal death in pig models of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy carrying sarcomere pathogenic variants
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is an autosomal-dominant disease caused by genetic variants in sarcomeric proteins, particularly in myosin binding protein C3 (MYBPC3) and myosin heavy chain 7 (MYH7).

ANK1 and EPB41 Variants and The Risk of Glucocorticoid‐Induced Osteonecrosis
Objective Steroid‐induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (SONFH) is a refractory skeletal disorder influenced by genetic and environmental factors. However, conclusive pathogenic genetic evidence remains elusive due to the limited exploration of rare damaging variants. In this study, we aimed to identify rare variants associated with SONFH.

Human Fibroblast–Myeloid Cell Tissue Atlas Across the Lungs, Synovium, Skin, and Heart
Objective The availability of single‐cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) data in different tissues and disease states provides an opportunity to compare cellular subsets and identify common and unique cellular activation. In this study, we aimed to characterize shared and tissue‐specific myeloid and stromal phenotypes and to uncover key cellular subtypes ...

Engineering Stable Lentiviral Vector Producer Cells Improves LVV Production
ABSTRACT Stable lentiviral vector producer cell lines represent a promising platform for scalable and cost‐efficient vector manufacturing, yet their productivity is often limited by intrinsic host‐cell constraints. In this study, we aimed to identify cellular factors restricting LVV production in stable doxycycline‐inducible GPRTG producer cell lines ...

Precision Negative Inotropy: The Rise of Cardiac Myosin Inhibitors in HCM
Background: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common heritable cardiomyopathy, marked by left-ventricular hypertrophy, dynamic outflow obstruction in many patients, diastolic dysfunction, and elevated risks of atrial fibrillation and heart ...

Isoform Specificity of a Compound Targeting Actin Filaments Containing Tropomyosin Tpm1.8/1.9
ABSTRACT The unbranched actin filaments in mammalian cells are usually composed of co‐polymers of a specific tropomyosin isoform with actin. Genetic manipulation has revealed that the tropomyosins largely define the functional properties of actin filaments in an isoform‐specific, non‐redundant manner.

ABSTRACT Cooperativity between cytoskeletal proteins is crucial for spatiotemporal coordination in biological processes, like oogenesis. In mammalian and Drosophila oogenesis, proper assembly and function of actin networks require coordination between actin assembly factors Spire and formins, as well as actin‐associated proteins like myosins and Rab ...

Labeling Strategies for Monitoring Cytoskeleton Dynamics in Cultured Epithelial Cells
ABSTRACT Collective cell migration relies on coordinated cytoskeletal remodeling, yet the impact of live‐cell actin filament probes on these dynamics remains poorly characterized. Here, we systematically compared the performance and cellular effects of fluorogenic jasplakinolide‐based probes, SiR‐actin and SiR‐XActin, with the genetically encoded ...
