Sarcomeric proteins and inherited cardiomyopathies [PDF]
Cardiovascular 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 ...

Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues
ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1059-1080, April 2025.Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...

Nucleus-dependent sarcomere assembly is mediated by the LINC complex
Molecular Biology of the Cell, 2016 Although significant progress has been made in understanding the mechanisms of nuclear movement, the functions of nuclear movement have proven more elusive.

Actinidin treatment and sous vide cooking : effects on tenderness and in vitro protein digestibility of beef brisket : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Food Technology at Massey University, Manawatū, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2017 Actinidin from kiwifruit can tenderise meat and help to add value to low-value meat cuts. Compared with other traditional tenderisers (e.g. papain and bromelain) it is a promising way, due to its less intensive tenderisation effects on meat.

G9a inhibits MEF2C activity to control sarcomere assembly
Scientific Reports, 2016 In this study, we demonstrate that the lysine methyltransferase G9a inhibits sarcomere organization through regulation of the MEF2C-HDAC5 regulatory axis. Sarcomeres are essential for muscle contractile function.

The effects of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors on the ‘forgotten’ right ventricle
ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1045-1058, April 2025.Abstract With the progress in diagnosis, treatment and imaging techniques, there is a growing recognition that impaired right ventricular (RV) function profoundly affects the prognosis of patients with heart failure (HF), irrespective of their left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).

Considerations for drug trials in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1095-1112, April 2025.Abstract Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a heterogeneous condition with potentially serious manifestations. Management has traditionally comprised therapies to palliate symptoms and implantable cardioverter‐defibrillators to prevent sudden cardiac death. The need for disease‐modifying therapies has been recognized for decades.
