Temporal evolution of muscle stretch , muscle stress , serial sarcomere number , and sarcomere length in chronically stretched skeletal muscle.

open access: yes, 2013
Single-step stretching (dashed lines) induces a drastic change in stretch resulting in a pronounced overstress and sarcomere lengthening. Multiple-step stretching (solid lines) induces a gradual change in stretch inducing a moderate overstress and ...

CK2α Deficiency Drives Myocardial Fibrosis via Desmin‐Induced Mitochondrial Dysfunction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
CK2α preserves mitochondrial homeostasis by phosphorylating Desmin to recruit Cryab, ensuring proper filament assembly. CK2α deficiency disrupts this interaction, causing mitochondrial dysfunction, metabolic shifts, bioenergetic failure, and oxidative stress—ultimately establishing a pro‐fibrotic environment that drives cardiac fibrosis.

Sarcomere lengths in chronically stretched skeletal muscle.

open access: yes, 2013
Computationally predicted sarcomere lengths agree nicely with experimentally measured sarcomere lengths with errors on the order of the experimental standard deviation [8].

Leonurine Ameliorates Doxorubicin‐Induced Cardiotoxicity via STING/NF‐κB/NLRP3 Inflammasome Signaling Pathway

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Doxorubicin‐induced cardiomyopathy (DIC) remains a dose‐limiting clinical challenge. This study reveals that cardiac vascular endothelial cells (CVECs) act as initial sensors of doxorubicin cardiotoxicity: circulating doxorubicin activates the cGAS‑STING pathway in CVECs, triggering NLRP3 inflammasome‑mediated pyroptosis and release of ...

Sarcomeric proteins and inherited cardiomyopathies [PDF]

open access: yesCardiovascular Research, 2007
Over the last two decades, a large number of mutations have been identified in sarcomeric proteins as a cause of hypertrophic, dilated or restrictive cardiomyopathy. Functional analyses of mutant proteins in vitro have revealed several important functional changes in sarcomeric proteins that might be primarily involved in the pathogenesis of each ...

Decreased auxotonic sarcomere shortening in hypertrophied rabbit myocardium

open access: yes, 1985
Auxotonic sarcomere length change occurs during isometric twitches of isolated cardiac muscle preparations. To assess the amount of internal work in hypertrophied myocardium, we measured auxotonic sarcomere length change during isometric tension ...

Targeted Anti‐IL‐1 Immunomodulatory Therapy in Pediatric Onset PPP1R13L‐Related Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autosomal recessive loss‐of‐function variants in PPP1R13L cause an ultra‐rare cardiocutaneous syndrome characterized by rapidly progressive arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM). PPP1R13L encodes iASPP, which has two potentially overlapping mechanisms driving ACM as both a regulator of NFκB‐mediated inflammation and a binding partner within the ...

Sarcomere Mechanics in Capillary Endothelial Cells

open access: yes, 2009
Tension generation in endothelial cells of the aorta, spleen, and eye occurs in actin stress fibers, and is necessary for normal cell function. Sarcomeres are the tension-generating units of actin stress fibers in endothelial cells.

Evaluation of quantitative muscle MRI and an intelligent phenotyping housing system as advanced phenotyping methods in a mouse model of calpain 3‐deficient muscular dystrophy

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We applied quantitative MRI of the lower limb and automated home‐cage phenotyping to a mouse model of calpainopathy to detect early disease changes. At 15 months, calpain 3‐deficient mice showed increased water T2 values correlating with immune cell infiltration in the soleus and gastrocnemius muscles, while assessment of motor activity revealed only ...
