  2. 1. The muscle cytoskeleton of mice and men : Structural remodelling in desmin myopathies

    Author : Lena Carlsson; Lars-Eric Thornell; Anders Arnér; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; desmin; nestin; synemin; paranemin; plectin; αB-crystallin; skeletal muscle; heart muscle; myotendinous junction; motor endplate; costamere; anatomi; Human Anatomy;

    Abstract : The muscle fibre cytoskeleton of skeletal and heart muscle cells is composed mainly of intermediate filaments (IFs), that surround the myofibrils and connect the peripheral myofibrils with the sarcolemma and the nuclear membrane. Desmin is the first muscle specific IF protein to be produced in developing muscles and is the main IF protein in mature muscles. READ MORE

  4. 2. Cellular and Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Congenital Myopathy-related Weakness

    Author : Johan Lindqvist; Julien Ochala; Anders Arner; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; skeletal muscle; skeletal muscle contraction; atrophy; nemaline myopathy; myofibrillar myopathy; myosin; actin;

    Abstract : Congenital myopathies are a rare and heterogeneous group of diseases. They are primarily characterised by skeletal muscle weakness and disease-specific pathological features. They harshly limit ordinary life and in severe cases, these myopathies are associated with early death of the affected individuals. READ MORE

  5. 3. Intra- and Extracellular Modulation of Integrin-directed Connective Tissue Cell Contraction

    Author : Tijs van Wieringen; Kristofer Rubin; Anders Arner; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Interstitial fluid pressure; PDGF-BB; bacterial proteins; αVβ3 integrin; cytoskeleton; Biochemistry; Biokemi; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : All blood vessels in the microvasculature are embedded in loose connective tissue, which regulates the transport of fluid to and from tissues. The intersti-tial fluid pressure (IFP) is one of the forces that control this transport. READ MORE
