BACKGROUND Description Troponin I, slow skeletal muscle, also known as TNNI1, belongs to the troponin I family. The troponin I subfamily contains three genes: TNNI-skeletal-fast-twitch, TNNI-skeletal-slow-twitch, and TNNI-cardiac. The TNNI-fast and TNNI-slow genes are expressed in fast-twitch and slow-twitch skeletal muscle fibers, respectively, while the TNNI- cardiac gene is expressed exclusively in cardiac muscle tissue. TNNI1 is the inhibitory subunit; blocking actin- myosin interactions and thereby mediating striated muscle relaxation. General References Hunkeler NM, Kullman J, Murphy AM (1991). Circ.

  • Troponin Variants in Congenital Myopathies: How They Affect Skeletal Muscle Mechanics
    International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review Troponin Variants in Congenital Myopathies: How They Affect Skeletal Muscle Mechanics Martijn van de Locht , Tamara C. Borsboom, Josine M. Winter and Coen A. C. Ottenheijm * Department of Physiology, Amsterdam Cardiovascular Sciences, Amsterdam UMC, Location VUmc, 1081 HZ Amsterdam, The Netherlands; [email protected] (M.v.d.L.); [email protected] (T.C.B.); [email protected] (J.M.W.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +31-(0)-20-444-8123 Abstract: The troponin complex is a key regulator of muscle contraction. Multiple variants in skeletal troponin encoding genes result in congenital myopathies. TNNC2 has been implicated in a novel congenital myopathy, TNNI2 and TNNT3 in distal arthrogryposis (DA), and TNNT1 and TNNT3 in nemaline myopathy (NEM). Variants in skeletal troponin encoding genes compromise sarcomere function, e.g., by altering the Ca2+ sensitivity of force or by inducing atrophy. Several potential therapeutic strategies are available to counter the effects of variants, such as troponin activators, introduction of wild-type protein through AAV gene therapy, and myosin modulation to improve muscle contraction. The mechanisms underlying the pathophysiological effects of the variants in skeletal troponin encoding genes are incompletely understood. Furthermore, limited knowledge is available on the structure of skeletal troponin. This review focusses on the physiology of slow and fast skeletal troponin and the pathophysiology of reported variants in skeletal troponin encoding genes. A better understanding of the pathophysiological effects of these variants, together with enhanced knowledge regarding the structure of slow and fast skeletal troponin, will direct the development of Citation: van de Locht, M.; treatment strategies.

Glomerular development has been analyzed mainly in mice, whereas analysis of human kidney development has been minimal because of limited access to embryonic kidneys. We previously reported the induction of three-dimensional primordial glomeruli from human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. Here, using transcription activator–like effector nuclease-mediated homologous recombination, we generated human iPS cell lines that express green fluorescent protein (GFP) in the NPHS1 locus, which encodes nephrin, and we show that GFP expression facilitated accurate visualization of nephrin-positive podocyte formation in

Bovine Cardiac Troponin I Gene (TNNI3) as a Candidate Gene for Bovine Dilated Cardiomyopathy Abstract The cardiac troponin complex, which is an important component of the contractile apparatus, is composed of the three subunits troponin I (TnI), troponin C (TnC) and troponin T (TnT). Troponin I is the inhibitory subunit and consists of three isoforms encoded by TNNI1, TNNI2 and TNNI3 genes, respectively. Due to the different types of cardiomyopathies caused by mutations in the TNNI3 gene and its fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) mapping on bovine chromosome 18q26, which was shown to be linked to the recessively inherited bovine dilated cardiomyopathy (BDCMP), bovine TNNI3 was considered as candidate gene for BDCMP. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) TNNI3 expression analysis resulted in a significant difference between BDCMP affected and unaffected animals when normalized to ACTB gene expression, but there was no significant difference in expression when normalized to GAPDH.

  • Alteration of Gene Expression in Mice After Glaucoma Filtration Surgery
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Alteration of gene expression in mice after glaucoma fltration surgery Keisuke Adachi, Yosuke Asada, Toshiaki Hirakata, Miki Onoue, Satoshi Iwamoto, Toshimitsu Kasuga & Akira Matsuda* To clarify the early alterations of gene expression using a mouse model of glaucoma fltration surgery, we carried out microarray expression analysis. Using BALB/c mice, a fltration surgery model was made by incision of the limbal conjunctiva, followed by the insertion of a 33G needle tip into the anterior chamber, and 11-0 nylon sutures. Subgroups of mice were treated intraoperatively with 0.4 mg/ml mitomycin-C (MMC). At day 3 after surgery the bleb was maintained. The bleb region tissue was sampled 3 days after the fltration surgery, and gene expression analysis was carried out using a mouse Agilent 8 × 60 K array. We found 755 hyperexpressed transcripts in the bleb region compared to control conjunctiva. The hyperexpressed transcripts included epithelial cell metaplasia-related (Il1b, Krt16, Sprr1b), infammation-related (Ccl2, Il6) and wound healing-related (Lox, Timp1) genes. We also found downregulation of a goblet cell marker gene (Gp2) in the bleb conjunctiva. MMC treatment suppressed elastin (Eln) gene expression and enhanced keratinization-related gene expression (Krt1, Lor) in the bleb region. Our results suggest the importance of epithelial wound healing after fltration surgery, and this fltration surgery model will be a useful tool for further pathophysiological analysis. Glaucoma is an optic neuropathy characterized by degeneration of retinal ganglion cells and cupping of the optic nerve head as well as visual feld defects1,2. Reduction of intraocular pressure is the method of treatment for glaucoma.
