Mechanical stress-strain sensors embedded in cardiac cytoskeleton: Z disk, titin, and associated structures
14 Mar 2006
Abstract excerpt
Cardiac muscle is equipped with intricate intrinsic mechanisms to regulate adaptive remodeling. Recent and extensive experimental findings powered by novel strategies for screening protein-protein interactions, improved imaging technologies, and versatile transgenic mouse methodologies reveal that Z disks and titin filaments possess unexpectedly complicated sensory and modulatory mechanisms for signal reception...
