DOI: 10.1016/s0735-1097(20)31000-7
Abstract: Atrial fibrillation (AF) increases stroke risk five-fold. Atrial hypocontractility from atrial myosin light chain (MLC2a) dephosphorylation contributes to stroke risk in AF. Recent proteomic data has shown increased protein phosphatase 1 subunit 12C (PPP1R12C) targeting… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/1744666x.2021.1850269
Abstract: ABSTRACT Introduction: Researchers have investigated the potential role of intestinal permeability in Crohn’s disease pathogenesis. Intestinal permeability is usually mediated by cytoskeleton and intercellular junctions. The myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) is an enzyme that… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/shk.0000000000001759
Abstract: ABSTRACT Sepsis-induced intestinal hyperpermeability is mediated by disruption of the epithelial tight junction, which is closely associated with the peri-junctional actin-myosin ring. Genetic deletion of myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) reverses intestinal hyperpermeability and improves… read more here.
