Immunofluorescent studies for myosin, actin, tropomyosin and alpha-actinin in cultured cardiomyopathic hamster heart cells.

Abstract:

:Primary cultures of cardiac myocytes from newborn normal and genetically cardiomyopathic (strain UM-X7.1) hamsters were analyzed by electron microscopy and immunofluorescent staining for myosin, actin, tropomyosin, and alpha-actinin. Antibody staining of these contractile proteins demonstrates that both normal and cardiomyopathic (CM) myocytes contain prominent myofibrils after 3 days in culture, although the CM myofibrils are disarrayed and not aligned as those in normal cells. The disarray becomes even more pronounced in CM cells after 5 days in culture. The immunofluorescent staining patterns of individual myofibrils in normal and CM cells were similar for myosin, actin, and tropomyosin. However, alpha-actinin staining reveals that the CM myofibrils have abnormally wide and irregularly shaped Z bands. Electron microscopy confirms the irregular Z-band appearance as well as the myofibril disarray. Thus, CM cardiomyocytes clearly show an aberrant pattern of myofibril structure and organization in culture.
