Titin mutations in iPS cells define sarcomere insufficiency as a cause of dilated cardiomyopathy
Human mutations that truncate the massive sarcomere protein titin [TTN-truncating variants (TTNtvs)] are the most common genetic cause for dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), a major cause of heart failure and premature death.

The Role Of Formin Diaphanous In Myoblast Fusion And Sarcomerogenesis In Drosophila Melanogaster [PDF]
From fruit fly to human, muscle cells form through conserved steps. During the formation of muscle, actin cytoskeleton plays critical roles in muscle cell fusion, attachment and the assembly of muscle structures.

Subcellular structure of the atrial myocardium of children in cases of atrial septal defect
In order to study the initial development of myocardial ultrastructural changes owing to right atrium volume overload, myocytes have been studied in specimens taken from the right atrial wall and auricle of four children aged 1 to 6 years with ostium ...
