Contractility-dependent actin dynamics in cardiomyocyte sarcomeres.
In contrast to the highly dynamic actin cytoskeleton in non-muscle cells, actin filaments in muscle sarcomeres are thought to be relatively stable and undergo dynamics only at their ends. However, many proteins that promote rapid actin dynamics are also expressed in striated muscles. We show that a subset of actin filaments in cardiomyocyte sarcomeres displays rapid turnover. Importantly, we fo...
متن کاملDifferent Localizations and Cellular Behaviors of Leiomodin and Tropomodulin in Mature Cardiomyocyte Sarcomeres
Leiomodin (Lmod) is a muscle-specific F-actin-nucleating protein that is related to the F-actin pointed-end-capping protein tropomodulin (Tmod). However, Lmod contains a unique ∼150-residue C-terminal extension that is required for its strong nucleating activity. Overexpression or depletion of Lmod compromises sarcomere organization, but the mechanism by which Lmod contributes to myofibril asse...
متن کاملCation dyshomeostasis and cardiomyocyte necrosis: the Fleckenstein hypothesis revisited.
An ongoing loss of cardiomyocytes to apoptotic and necrotic cell death pathways contributes to the progressive nature of heart failure. The pathophysiological origins of necrotic cell loss relate to the neurohormonal activation that accompanies acute and chronic stressor states and which includes effector hormones of the adrenergic nervous system. Fifty years ago, Albrecht Fleckenstein and cowo...
متن کاملDeveloping a Model for Estimating Weaving and Non-Weaving Speed within Highways Weaving Segments (Tehran)
In weaving section due to a strong need for lane changing, a type of turbulence is created in traffic flow; so, the speedand the capacity of the weaving section decreases. Therefore, investigation of the weaving section is very important.However, due to shortage of the manual for urban principal arterials (highways), calibration of these models is necessary.One of these models...
متن کاملFormin’ muscle sarcomeres
The Fuzzy logistics of intraflagellar transpor t T he planar cell polarity protein Fuzzy (Fuz) promotes ciliogenesis by delivering intrafl agellar transport (IFT) proteins to the basal bodies of primary cilia, Brooks and Wallingford report. Fuz is required for cilia assembly in frogs and mice, but how it supports ciliogenesis is unknown. The protein has no obvious functional domains, though bio...
