Biomechanical defects and rescue of cardiomyocytes expressing pathologic nuclear lamins
2018
Aims
Given the clinical impact of LMNA cardiomyopathies, understanding lamin function will fulfill a clinical need and will lead to advancement in the treatment of heart failure. A multidisciplinary approach combining cell biology, atomic force microscopy (AFM), and molecular modeling was used to analyse the biomechanical properties of human lamin A/C gene (LMNA) mutations (E161K, D192G, N195K) using an in vitro neonatal rat ventricular myocyte model.
