Cardiomyocyte Contractile Impairment in Heart Failure Results from Reduced BAG3-mediated Sarcomeric Protein Turnover
2020-04-12
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The association between reduced myofilament force-generating capacity (F max ) and heart failure (HF) is clear, however the underlying molecular mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, we show the F max decrease arises from impaired BAG3-mediated sarcomere turnover. Myofilament BAG3 decreased in human HF and predicted the extent of F max decrease. This relationship was confirmed using BAG3 +...
