Mechanical stimulation mimicking exercise transiently increases CapZ and actin dynamics in cardiac myocytes, suggesting a mechanism for sarcomere remodeling.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Transient myocyte strain responses leave open whether CapZ-actin dynamics drive exercise-induced sarcomere remodeling in vivo; confirmatory studies required.
Lin et al. (2013) studied this question.
