متن کاملModulation of titin-based stiffness by disulfide bonding in the cardiac titin N2-B unique sequence.
The giant protein titin is responsible for the elasticity of nonactivated muscle sarcomeres. Titin-based passive stiffness in myocardium is modulated by titin-isoform switching and protein-kinase (PK)A- or PKG-dependent titin phosphorylation. Additional modulatory effects on titin stiffness may arise from disulfide bonding under oxidant stress, as many immunoglobulin-like (Ig-)domains in titin'...
متن کاملTitin isoform switch in ischemic human heart disease.
BACKGROUND Ischemia-induced cardiomyopathy usually is accompanied by elevated left ventricular end-diastolic pressure, which follows from increased myocardial stiffness resulting from upregulated collagen expression. In addition to collagen, a main determinant of stiffness is titin, whose role in ischemia-induced left ventricular stiffening was studied here. Human heart sarcomeres coexpress 2 p...
متن کاملGiant molecule titin and myocardial stiffness.
Wu et al1 found that the titin isoforms N2BA/N2B ratio was decreased from a normal ratio of 1.0 to 0.8 in the paced dog heart. Because N2B represents the isoform with stiffer elastic properties, this resulted in an increased passive stiffness in isolated muscle strips. The authors suggest that this “titin-based” stiffness is acting in concert with “collagenbased” stiffness and that it may count...
