Modifications of Titin Contribute to the Progression of Cardiomyopathy and Represent a Therapeutic Target for Treatment of Heart Failure

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Medicine, 2020
Titin is the largest human protein and an essential component of the cardiac sarcomere. With multiple immunoglobulin(Ig)-like domains that serve as molecular springs, titin contributes significantly to the passive tension, systolic function, and ...

Development and External Validation of a Multivariable Model to Predict Early Minimal Symptom Expression Response in Adult Generalized Myasthenia Gravis Patients Treated With Efgartigimod

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 1, January 2026.
A multicenter adult gMG cohort from five tertiary centers in China (N = 118) received efgartigimod 10 mg/kg IV weekly × 4. Early minimal symptom expression (MSE) response was defined as MG‐ADL ≤ 1 sustained ≥ 4 weeks and assessed within 4 weeks. A three‐factor nomogram (bulbar MG‐ADL subscore, FVC% predicted, serum IgG) was developed in the derivation ...

Autoantibodies in myasthenia gravis: cluster analysis and clinical correlations

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology
ObjectiveThis study aimed to explore autoantibody clusters and their correlations with clinical features in 644 myasthenia gravis (MG) patients.MethodsMedical records of 664 MG patients were reviewed. Five autoantibodies (AChR, MuSK, titin, RyR, and LRP4)

Titin, a central mediator for hypertrophic signaling, exercise-induced mechanosignaling and skeletal muscle remodeling

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2016
Titin is a giant scaffold protein with multiple functions in striated muscle physiology. Due to the elastic I-band domains and the filament-like integration in the half-sarcomere titin is an important factor for sarcomere assembly and serves as an ...

The major myosin-binding domain of skeletal muscle MyBP-C (C protein) resides in the COOH-terminal, immunoglobulin C2 motif. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
A common feature shared by myosin-binding proteins from a wide variety of species is the presence of a variable number of related internal motifs homologous to either the Ig C2 or the fibronectin (Fn) type III repeats.

Mimics and Diagnostic Pitfalls of Anti‐Adenylate Kinase 5 Limbic Encephalitis

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 1, January 2026.
Mimics of anti‐AK5 encephalitis are common and that misdiagnosis is often driven by non‐specific symptoms and clinically irrelevant antibody results. The absence of cognitive impairment as a major symptom, prominence of psychiatric and behavioral symptoms, isolated from serum positivity or low CSF antibody titers (< 1:100), and objective clinical ...

Visualizing sarcomere and cellular dynamics in skeletal muscle to improve cell therapies

open access: yeseLife
The giant striated muscle protein titin integrates into the developing sarcomere to form a stable myofilament system that is extended as myocytes fuse.

Increased titin compliance reduced length-dependent contractionand slowed cross-bridge kinetics in skinned myocardial strips from Rbm20ΔRRM mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2016
Titin is a giant protein spanning from the Z-disk to the M-band of the cardiac sarcomere. In the I-band titin acts as a molecular spring, contributing to passive mechanical characteristics of the myocardium throughout a heartbeat.

Effect of Load on Non‐Muscle Myosin 2 Paralog Filaments in a Biomimetic Contractile Actin Array

open access: yesSmall, Volume 22, Issue 3, 13 January 2026.
The main paralogs of non‐muscle myosin 2 are studied on a micropatterned array of anti‐parallel actin filaments. This sarcomere‐like platform reveals myosin's load‐dependent behavior, and the resulting tension is quantified using embedded FRET sensors for both myosin and anchored actin.
