  • Assembly and Maintenance of Sarcomere Thin Filaments and Associated Diseases
    International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review Assembly and Maintenance of Sarcomere Thin Filaments and Associated Diseases Kendal Prill and John F. Dawson * Centre for Cardiovascular Investigations, Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology, University of Guelph, Guelph, ON N1G 2W1, Canada; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 17 December 2019; Accepted: 12 January 2020; Published: 15 January 2020 Abstract: Sarcomere assembly and maintenance are essential physiological processes required for cardiac and skeletal muscle function and organism mobility. Over decades of research, components of the sarcomere and factors involved in the formation and maintenance of this contractile unit have been identified. Although we have a general understanding of sarcomere assembly and maintenance, much less is known about the development of the thin filaments and associated factors within the sarcomere. In the last decade, advancements in medical intervention and genome sequencing have uncovered patients with novel mutations in sarcomere thin filaments. Pairing this sequencing with reverse genetics and the ability to generate patient avatars in model organisms has begun to deepen our understanding of sarcomere thin filament development. In this review, we provide a summary of recent findings regarding sarcomere assembly, maintenance, and disease with respect to thin filaments, building on the previous knowledge in the field. We highlight debated and unknown areas within these processes to clearly define open research questions. Keywords: sarcomere assembly; sarcomere maintenance; sarcomere thin filaments; thin filament assembly; thin filament maintenance; thin filament turnover; actin turnover; chaperone; sarcomere; myopathy 1. Introduction Striated muscle requires the coordination of hundreds of proteins not only for cellular function but also for assembly of the contractile sarcomere units within the myofibril.

  • Genetic Mutations and Mechanisms in Dilated Cardiomyopathy
    Genetic mutations and mechanisms in dilated cardiomyopathy Elizabeth M. McNally, … , Jessica R. Golbus, Megan J. Puckelwartz J Clin Invest. 2013;123(1):19-26. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI62862. Review Series Genetic mutations account for a significant percentage of cardiomyopathies, which are a leading cause of congestive heart failure. In hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), cardiac output is limited by the thickened myocardium through impaired filling and outflow. Mutations in the genes encoding the thick filament components myosin heavy chain and myosin binding protein C (MYH7 and MYBPC3) together explain 75% of inherited HCMs, leading to the observation that HCM is a disease of the sarcomere. Many mutations are “private” or rare variants, often unique to families. In contrast, dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is far more genetically heterogeneous, with mutations in genes encoding cytoskeletal, nucleoskeletal, mitochondrial, and calcium-handling proteins. DCM is characterized by enlarged ventricular dimensions and impaired systolic and diastolic function. Private mutations account for most DCMs, with few hotspots or recurring mutations. More than 50 single genes are linked to inherited DCM, including many genes that also link to HCM. Relatively few clinical clues guide the diagnosis of inherited DCM, but emerging evidence supports the use of genetic testing to identify those patients at risk for faster disease progression, congestive heart failure, and arrhythmia.

Mutations lamin-downregulated [lmn-1(RNAi)] embryos, Ce-titin was in A-type lamins cause muscular dystrophy, undetectable at the nuclear envelope suggesting its cardiomyopathy and other diseases, including progeroid localization or stability requires Ce-lamin. In human cells syndromes. To identify new binding partners for lamin A, (HeLa), antibodies against the titin-specific domain M-is6 we carried out a two-hybrid screen with a human skeletal- gave both diffuse and punctate intranuclear staining by muscle cDNA library, using the Ig-fold domain of lamin A indirect immunofluorescence, and recognized at least three as bait. The C-terminal region of titin was recovered twice. bands larger than 1 MDa in immunoblots of isolated HeLa Previous investigators showed that nuclear isoforms of titin nuclei.

  • Lamin A/C Cardiomyopathy: Implications for Treatment
    Current Cardiology Reports (2019) 21:160 https://doi.org/10.1007/s11886-019-1224-7 MYOCARDIAL DISEASE (A ABBATE AND G SINAGRA, SECTION EDITORS) Lamin A/C Cardiomyopathy: Implications for Treatment Suet Nee Chen1 & Orfeo Sbaizero1,2 & Matthew R. G. Taylor1 & Luisa Mestroni1 # Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract Purpose of Review The purpose of this review is to provide an update on lamin A/C (LMNA)-related cardiomyopathy and discuss the current recommendations and progress in the management of this disease. LMNA-related cardiomyopathy, an inherited autosomal dominant disease, is one of the most common causes of dilated cardiomyopathy and is characterized by steady progression toward heart failure and high risks of arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. Recent Findings We discuss recent advances in the understanding of the molecular mechanisms of the disease including altered cell biomechanics, which may represent novel therapeutic targets to advance the current management approach, which relies on standard heart failure recommendations. Future therapeutic approaches include repurposed molecularly directed drugs, siRNA- based gene silencing, and genome editing. Summary LMNA-related cardiomyopathy is the focus of active in vitro and in vivo research, which is expected to generate novel biomarkers and identify new therapeutic targets. LMNA-related cardiomyopathy trials are currently underway. Keywords Lamin A/C gene . Laminopathy . Heart failure . Arrhythmias . Mechanotransduction . P53 .
