The discovery of a protein responsible for the stability of the smallest unit in the heart




Researchers found Ullman, at the University of "Heidelberg", a protein responsible for the stability of the smallest unit in the heart muscle, muscle is partaker "Sarcomir" (Sarcomere) located in the muscle fiber to the heart muscles, it is possible for this protein to be involved in causing some types of cardiomyopathy inflationary (Dilated Cardiom) (yopathy), which leads to heart failure.

The cardiomyopathy inflationary Altmddi (expansion) is created after the expansion of the heart muscle fibers, resulting in the expansion in the size of the left ventricle and often in the cardiac chambers, such as the left atrium and ventricle and atrium Aloiemien. And this expansion is usually accompanied by low capacity melancholy to the heart muscle. This affects the type of cardiac morbidity 5 to 8 out of 100 thousand people around the world, and it is causing, over time, the weakness in the myocardial cells by the inability of the heart to pump blood.
