Early signs of architectural and biomechanical failure in isolated myofibers and immortalized myoblasts from desmin-mutant knock-in mice
Abstract In striated muscle, desmin intermediate filaments interlink the contractile myofibrillar apparatus with mitochondria, nuclei, and the sarcolemma. The desmin network’s pivotal role in myocytes is evident since mutations in the human desmin gene cause severe myopathies and cardiomyopathies. H...
