Calreticulin, a Ca2+ binding chaperone of the endoplasmic reticulum, is also highly expressed in the embryonic heart, and knockout of the calreticulin gene is lethal during embryogenesis because of impaired cardiac development. The protein is down-regulated after birth, and elevated expression of...

Intracellular regulation of matrix metalloproteinase-2 activity: the roles of caveolin-1 and troponin I phosphorylation
DownloadFall 2010
Matrix metalloproteinase‐2 (MMP‐2) was recently revealed to have targets and actions within the cardiac myocyte. In ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, MMP‐2 is activated and degrades troponin I (TnI) and α‐actinin. The regulation of intracellular MMP‐2 activity is relatively unknown and is thus...

Plasma Membrane Organization and Endocytosis of CD36 in Human Microvascular Endothelial Cells
DownloadSpring 2016
The plasma membrane is a dynamic lipid bilayer that surrounds the cell, embedded with different plasma membrane proteins, aiding communication between the inside and outside of the cells. Its functions are achieved through an intricate organization of lipid-lipid, lipid-protein and...
