| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
1) We performed simultaneous nano-imaging of intracellular Ca dynamics and single sarcomere length in rat neonatal cardiomyocytes, via expression of α-actinin-YC-Nano140 in the Z disks. 2) We developed a high-precision method for the evaluation of the intracellular Ca dynamics in the isolated perfused mouse heart. 3) We developed a high speed (100 fps), high resolution (20 nm) nano-imaging system for myocardial sarcomeres in living mice. Using this system, we conducted three-dimensional analysis of sarcomere dynamics in left ventricular myocytes during the cardiac cycle, simultaneously with electrocardiogram and left ventricular pressure measurements. 4) We analyzed the mechanical properties of single sarcomere dynamics during sarcomeric auto-oscillations (Ca-SPOC) in myofibrils from donor hearts and from patients with severe dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). Sarcomere dynamics was found to be depressed in DCM myofibrils, due to impairment of thick-thin filament sliding.
