In vivo length oscillations of indirect flight muscles in the fruit fly Drosophila virilis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
We have used high-speed video microscopy to measure in vivo length oscillations of the indirect flight muscles of the fruit fly Drosophila virilis during tethered flight.

Cardiac manifestations of PRKAG2 mutation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BACKGROUND:The Protein Kinase AMP-Activated Non-Catalytic Subunit Gamma 2 (PRKAG2) cardiac syndrome is characterized by glycogen accumulation in the cardiac tissue.

Sarcomeric TPM3α in developing chicken [PDF]

open access: yesCytoskeleton, 2017
AbstractCloning and sequencing of various tropomyosin isoforms expressed in chickens have been described since the early 1980s. However, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the molecular characterization and the expression of the sarcomeric isoform of the TPM3 gene in cardiac and skeletal muscles from developing as well as adult ...

Bioorthogonal Engineering of Cellular Microenvironments Using Isonitrile Ligations

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Highly selective chemistries are required for fabrication and post‐cross–linking modification of cell‐encapsulating hydrogels used in tissue engineering applications. Isonitrile ligation reactions represent a promising class of bioorthogonal chemistries for engineering hydrogel‐based cellular microenvironments. Isonitrile‐based hydrogels are stable and

Characterization of Gelatin Hydrogels Cross-Linked with Microbial Transglutaminase as Engineered Skeletal Muscle Substrates

open access: yesBioengineering, 2021
Engineered in vitro models of skeletal muscle are essential for efficiently screening drug safety and efficacy. However, conventional culture substrates poorly replicate physical features of native muscle and do not support long-term culture, which ...

Requirements for contractility in disordered cytoskeletal bundles

open access: yes, 2012
Actomyosin contractility is essential for biological force generation, and is well understood in highly organized structures such as striated muscle. Additionally, actomyosin bundles devoid of this organization are known to contract both in vivo and in ...

Modular proteins from the Drosophila sallimus (sls) gene and their expression in muscles with different extensibility [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The passive elasticity of the sarcomere in striated muscle is determined by large modular proteins, such as titin in vertebrates. In insects, the function of titin is divided between two shorter proteins, projectin and sallimus (Sls), which are the ...

Divergent Regulation of the Sarcomere and the Cytoskeleton [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2008
The existence of a feedback mechanism regulating the precise amounts of muscle structural proteins, such as actin and the actin-associated protein tropomyosin (Tm), in the sarcomeres of striated muscles is well established. However, the regulation of nonmuscle or cytoskeletal actin and Tms in nonmuscle cell structures has not been elucidated.

Rapid Deep Vat Printing Using Photoclickable Collagen‐Based Bioresins

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Collagen‐based resin formulations based on thiol‐ene photoclick chemistry are demonstrated. These resins enable easy handleability under neutral conditions and further allow facile fabrication of multicellular tissue constructs via tomographic or FLight printing.

Deactivation in the rabbit left ventricle induced by constant ejection flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
A study of pressure generated by the left ventricle after ejection with constant flow for different values of the ejection flow, flow duration, time of flow arrest, and ventricular volume is discussed.
