The #cytoskeleton contributes to abnormal genome-lamina interactions in LMNA-deficient cardiomyocytes. New study from Kaitlyn M. Shen, Parisha P. Shah, Rajan Jain @pennmedicine.bsky.social and colleagues: rupress.org/jcb/article/...

Shen, Shah, Jain et al. @pennmedicine.bsky.social demonstrate that #lamin A/C reduction alters peripheral genome organization in human cardiomyocytes through cytoskeletal forces transmitted by the LINC complex. rupress.org/jcb/article/...

It’s been a pleasure working with @apdaria.bsky.social, Julie Heffler, and the Prosser Lab on this study, supported by the Leducq Foundation and the National Institutes of Health (NIH). This research is one step to get us closer to an effective treatment for cardiac #laminopathies and #LMNA-DCM.
How do LMNA mutations cause dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and other #laminopathies? In our latest preprint (doi.org/10.1101/2024...), led by the amazing Noam Zuela-Sopilniak and Julien Morival, we show that cardiomyocyte-specific lamin A/C depletion causes severe DCM, consistent with other studies.
Laminopathies Meeting 2025 wrapped up with two powerful sessions: “Towards Patients” & the Patient Session.
The exchange between experts & patients was incredibly valuable.
Thanks to everyone who joined us!
