Randomized trial investigates myocardin protein expression in rat tissue, suggesting new insights for vascular research.

The aim is to clarify the expression patterns of myocardin protein in vascular smooth muscle cells under normal and diseased states.
Generated a rat model carrying HA-tagged myocardin for in vivo analysis.
Utilized Western blotting to measure myocardin protein levels across various tissues.
Employ predictive modeling to determine immunoreactivity of myocardin's C-terminus.
Highest myocardin expression found in aorta, bladder, and uterus, with low levels in most other rat tissues.
Novel findings show myocardin protein exhibits a high molecular weight previously unreported.
First spatial expression profile of myocardin protein documented in several mouse and rat tissues under different conditions.

Doja et al. (2026) studied this question.
