Journal ArticleDOI

Dimerisation of myomesin: implications for the structure of the sarcomeric M-band.

TL;DR: The new and the already previously identified myomesin interaction sites are integrated into the first three-dimensional model of the sarcomeric M-band on a molecular basis and it is suggested that, similar to alpha-actinin in the Z-disc, theMyomesin dimers cross-link the contractile filaments in the M- band.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neural differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells as a tool to assess developmental neurotoxicity in vitro.

TL;DR: The current study shows that D3 mESCs differentiate efficiently into neural cells involving a neurosphere-like state and that this system is suitable to detect adverse effects of neurodevelopmental toxicants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Complete loss of murine Xin results in a mild cardiac phenotype with altered distribution of intercalated discs.

TL;DR: In this article, the function of Xin variants in the mammalian heart was investigated in mice deficient in all three Xin isoforms (XinAB−/− mice) and the results indicated that XinC may be involved in the development of human cardiac hypertrophy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assaying embryotoxicity in the test tube: Current limitations of the embryonic stem cell test (EST) challenging its applicability domain

TL;DR: The EST performed well below the 78% accuracy expected from the validation study using a new set of chemicals and pharmaceutical compounds, and also of toxicity criteria, tested to enlarge the database of the validated EST.
