Dynamic Myofibrillar Remodeling in Live Cardiomyocytes under Static Stretch
An increase in mechanical load in the heart causes cardiac hypertrophy, either physiologically (heart development, exercise and pregnancy) or pathologically (high blood pressure and heart-valve regurgitation). Understanding cardiac hypertrophy is critical to comprehending the mechanisms of heart development and treatment of heart disease. However, the major molecular event that occurs during ph...
متن کاملLive Sketch: Video-driven Dynamic Deformation of Static Drawings
Creating sketch animations using traditional tools requires special artistic skills, and is tedious even for trained professionals. To lower the barrier for creating sketch animations, we propose a new system, Live Sketch, which allows novice users to interactively bring static drawings to life by applying deformation-based animation effects that are extracted from video examples. Dynamic defor...
متن کاملBlocking stretch-induced myocardial remodeling.
It is increasingly recognized that pathological cardiac remodeling, including myocardial hypertrophy and chamber dilation, is a process that promotes progression of myocardial dysfunction and adverse clinical sequelae among patients with dilated cardiomyopathies, regardless of the pathogenesis. Accordingly, the goals of delaying progression or inducing regression of pathological cardiac hypertr...
متن کاملFlightin, a novel myofibrillar protein of Drosophila stretch-activated muscles
The indirect flight muscles of Drosophila are adapted for rapid oscillatory movements which depend on properties of the contractile apparatus itself. Flight muscles are stretch activated and the frequency of contraction in these muscles is independent of the rate of nerve impulses. Little is known about the molecular basis of these adaptations. We now report a novel protein that is found only i...
متن کاملSequential myofibrillar breakdown accompanies mitotic division of mammalian cardiomyocytes.
The contractile tissue of the heart is composed of individual cardiomyocytes. During mammalian embryonic development, heart growth is achieved by cell division while at the same time the heart is already exerting its essential pumping activity. There is still some debate whether the proliferative activity is carried out by a less differentiated, stem cell-like type of cardiomyocytes or whether ...
