AIMS The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effects of overexpression of microRNA-1 (miR-1) on cardiac contractile function and the potential molecular mechanisms. METHODS AND RESULTS Transgenic (Tg) mice (C57BL/6) for cardiac-specific overexpression of miR-1 driven by the α-myosin heavy chain promoter were generated and identified by real-time reverse-transcription polymerase c...
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 ...
Smyd1b is a member of the Smyd family that is specifically expressed in skeletal and cardiac muscles. Smyd1b plays a key role in thick filament assembly during myofibrillogenesis in skeletal muscles of zebrafish embryos. To better characterize Smyd1b function and its mechanism of action in myofibrillogenesis, we analyzed the effects of smyd1b knockdown on myofibrillogenesis in skeletal and card...
Cold exposure (6 weeks at 4 degrees C) of normotensive (Wistar-Kyoto) and stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive female rats led to cardiac hypertrophy (in stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats), increased the level of plasma thyroxine, and increased the alpha-myosin heavy chain expression in the left ventricle. In contrast, myosin heavy chain expression of both main mesenteric artery a...
Although many physicochemical studies of skeletal myosin have been reported (l-4), comparatively few comparable studies have been made of cardiac myosin (5-7). The assumption that the myosins derived from skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscle are identical (8) is not based upon any single rigorous comparative study. This laboratory is presently devoted to a systematic study of myocardial metabol...
In 10-30% of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy kindreds, the disease is caused by > 29 missense mutations in the cardiac beta-myosin heavy chain (MYH7) gene. The amino acid sequence similarity between chicken skeletal muscle and human beta-cardiac myosin and the three-dimensional structure of the chicken skeletal muscle myosin head have provided the opportunity to examine the structural consequences ...
The dwarf mutation in mice interferes with the development of those anterior pituitary cells responsible for production of thyroid stimulating hormone, growth hormone, and prolactin. Myosin isozyme transitions in both cardiac and skeletal muscle were also found to be affected in this mutant. Electrophoresis of native myosins demonstrated that the fetal (V3) to adult (V1) ventricular cardiac iso...
BACKGROUND Myosin-induced autoimmune myocarditis of rats is a model of human dilated cardiomyopathy. Resveratrol is a natural polyphenol found in grapes and wine that is reported to have cardioprotective and immunomodulatory effects. METHODS AND RESULTS To examine the effect of resveratrol on myocarditis, vehicle or resveratrol (50 mg/kg per day) was administered to cardiac myosin immunized r...
Familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (FHC) is an inherited cardiac disease that can result in sudden death in the absence of any overt symptoms. Many of the cases documented to date have been linked with missense mutations in the beta-myosin heavy chain gene. Here we present data detailing the functional impact of one of the most deadly mutations, R403Q, on myosin motor function. Experiments we...
