Flight of the titins [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Cell Biology, 2001
![Graphic][1] Kettin determines stretchability. To execute the rapid wingbeats that allow them to fly, many small insects rely on an elastic-filament system that makes their flight muscles extremely stiff.

Cilostazol in patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction—The CLIP‐HFpEF trial

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1437-1446, April 2025.
• Cilostazol is an oral PDE‐3 inhibitor that may have advantageous effects in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). • Cilostazol significantly improved short‐term heart failure‐related health status scores (KCCQ‐12) and NT‐proBNP levels when compared to placebo.

Nanobodies combined with DNA-PAINT super-resolution reveal a staggered titin nanoarchitecture in flight muscles

open access: yeseLife, 2023
Sarcomeres are the force-producing units of all striated muscles. Their nanoarchitecture critically depends on the large titin protein, which in vertebrates spans from the sarcomeric Z-disc to the M-band and hence links actin and myosin filaments stably ...

Polyphenol dietary supplementation prevents inflammation‐induced muscle atrophy in a zebrafish (Danio rerio) model

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Diet‐induced inflammation is a major cause of muscle degeneration impacting human and animal health. Owing to their anti‐inflammatory and antioxidant properties, polyphenols have attracted considerable interest as feed additives.

Gigantic Business Titin Properties and Function Through Thick and Thin

open access: yes, 2014
The giant protein titin forms a unique filament network in cardiomyocytes, which engages in both mechanical and signaling functions of the heart. TTN, which encodes titin, is also a major human disease gene.

The Mechanical Power of Titin Folding [PDF]

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
The delivery of mechanical power, a crucial component of animal motion, is constrained by the universal compromise between the force and the velocity of its constituent molecular systems. While the mechanisms of force generation have been studied at the single molecular motor level, there is little understanding of the magnitude of power that can be ...

Cardiovascular toxicity from immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy: an inflammatory continuum

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy has markedly improved outcomes in advanced malignancies but has also revealed a distinct spectrum of cardiovascular immune‐related adverse events. Myocarditis represents the most severe manifestation, while non‐inflammatory left ventricular dysfunction and vascular inflammation have emerged as additional ...

Titin Gene and Protein Functions in Passive and Active Muscle

open access: yes, 2018
The thin and thick filaments of muscle sarcomeres are interconnected by the giant protein titin, which is a scaffolding filament, signaling platform, and provider of passive tension and elasticity in myocytes.

TRIM32 controls timely cell cycle exit in muscular differentiation through downregulation of c‐Myc mRNA

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Trim32 regulates the transition from proliferation to differentiation in C2C12 cells after myogenic induction. We found that, at the onset of differentiation, Trim32 destabilizes c‐Myc mRNA, promotes cell cycle exit, and enables normal myotube formation.

Plasmatic Profiling of Individuals With Combinations of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, Dyslipidemia and Periodontitis: A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesOral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim The objective of this study was to investigate the global profile of plasmatic proteins of individuals affected simultaneously or not by type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM, well/poorly‐controlled), Dyslipidemia (DL), and Periodontitis (P). Methods Besides periodontal examination, plasma was collected for glycemic, and lipid analyses from 150 ...
