description | The cardiac sarcomere is a triumph of biological evolution wherein myriad contractile and regulatory proteins assemble into a quasi-crystalline lattice to serve as the central point upon which cardiac muscle contraction occurs. This review focuses on the many signaling components and mechanisms of regulation that impact cardiac sarcomere function. We highlight the roles of the thick and thin filament, both as necessary structural and regulatory building blocks of the sarcomere as well as targets of functionally impactful modifications. Currently, a new focus emerging in the field is inter-myofilament signaling, and we discuss here the important mediators of this mechanism, including myosin-binding protein C and titin. As the understanding of sarcomere signaling advances, so do the methods with which it is studied. This is reviewed here through discussion of recent live muscle systems in which the sarcomere can be studied under intact, physiologically relevant conditions. |
