Destabilization of F-actin by Mechanical Stress Deprivation or Tpm3.1 Inhibition Promotes a Pathological Phenotype in Tendon Cells
2022-02-16
Abstract excerpt
The actin cytoskeleton is a central mediator between mechanical force and cellular phenotype. In tendon, it is speculated that mechanical stress deprivation regulates gene expression by filamentous (F−) actin destabilization. However, the molecular mechanisms that stabilize tenocyte F-actin networks remain unclear. Tropomyosins (Tpms) are master regulators of F-actin networks. There are over 40 mammalian Tpm isofo...
