Tearin' up my heart: proteolysis in the cardiac sarcomere.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Proteolysis within the cardiac sarcomere is a constantly evolving area of research. Three major pathways of proteolysis have been identified as being active within the cardiac sarcomere, namely the ubiquitin-proteasome system, autophagy, and the calpain system. The role of ubiquitin-proteasome system-mediated proteolysis in cardiovascular health and disease has been known for some time; however, it is now apparent that other proteolytic systems also aid in the stabilization of cardiac sarcomere structure and function. This minireview focuses on the individual as well as cooperative involvement of each of these three major pathways of proteolysis within the cardiac sarcomere.

Oxidative stress and sarcomeric proteins.
Oxidative stress accompanies a wide spectrum of clinically important cardiac disorders, including ischemia/reperfusion, diabetes mellitus, and hypertensive heart disease. Although reactive oxygen species (ROS) can activate signaling pathways that contribute to ischemic preconditioning and cardioprotection, high levels of ROS induce structural modifications of the sarcomere that impact on pump f...
متن کاملA cardiac myosin light chain kinase regulates sarcomere assembly in the vertebrate heart.
Marked sarcomere disorganization is a well-documented characteristic of cardiomyocytes in the failing human myocardium. Myosin regulatory light chain 2, ventricular/cardiac muscle isoform (MLC2v), which is involved in the development of human cardiomyopathy, is an important structural protein that affects physiologic cardiac sarcomere formation and heart development. Integrated cDNA expression ...
متن کاملAberrant developmental titin splicing and dysregulated sarcomere length in Thymosin β4 knockout mice
Sarcomere assembly is a highly orchestrated and dynamic process which adapts, during perinatal development, to accommodate growth of the heart. Sarcomeric components, including titin, undergo an isoform transition to adjust ventricular filling. Many sarcomeric genes have been implicated in congenital cardiomyopathies, such that understanding developmental sarcomere transitions will inform the a...

متن کاملImpaired diastolic function after exchange of endogenous troponin I with C-terminal truncated troponin I in human cardiac muscle.
The specific and selective proteolysis of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) has been proposed to play a key role in human ischemic myocardial disease, including stunning and acute pressure overload. In this study, the functional implications of cTnI proteolysis were investigated in human cardiac tissue for the first time. The predominant human cTnI degradation product (cTnI(1-192)) and full-length cTnI...
