Cardiac Troponin I but Not Cardiac Troponin T Induces Severe Autoimmune Inflammation in the Myocardium
Background—Cardiac troponins in blood are the most preferred markers of myocardial damage. The fact that they are normally not found in the circulation provides a high level of clinical sensitivity and specificity even when cardiac lesions are small. After myocardial injury, the troponins enter the circulation, where they can be used for diagnosis of acute coronary syndromes. Thus, the cardiac ...

متن کاملHydrodynamic properties of bovine cardiac troponin-I and troponin-T.
Bovine cardiac troponin-I (TN-I) and troponin-T (TN-T) have been examined in solution using ultracentrifugation, gel filtration, and viscosity. A new method of purifying TN-T, employing hydroxylapatite chromatography in 6 M urea, is reported. Cardiac TN-T (Mr = 36,000) undergoes a reversible, concentration-dependent association in nondenaturing buffers, probably to a tetramer. The Stokes radius...
متن کاملDephosphorylation specificities of protein phosphatase for cardiac troponin I, troponin T, and sites within troponin T
Protein dephosphorylation by protein phosphatase 1 (PP1), acting in concert with protein kinase C (PKC) and protein kinase A (PKA), is a pivotal regulatory mechanism of protein phosphorylation. Isolated rat cardiac myofibrils phosphorylated by PKC/PKA and dephosphorylated by PP1 were used in determining dephosphorylation specificities, Ca(2+)-stimulated Mg(2+)ATPase activities, and Ca(2+) sensi...
متن کاملThe solution structure of a cardiac troponin C-troponin I-troponin T complex shows a somewhat compact troponin C interacting with an extended troponin I-troponin T component.
We have investigated the structure of the cTnC-cTnI-cTnT(198-298) calcium-saturated, ternary cardiac troponin complex by small-angle scattering with contrast variation. Shape restoration was also applied to the scattering information resulting from the deuterated cTnC subunit, the unlabeled cTnI-cTnT(198-298) subunits, and the entire complex. The experimental results and modeling indicate that ...
