Enteroviral Cardiomyopathy: Bad News for the Dystrophin-Glycoprotein Complex
@article{Badorff2000EnteroviralCB, title={Enteroviral Cardiomyopathy: Bad News for the Dystrophin-Glycoprotein Complex}, author={Cornel Badorff and Gil-Hwan Lee and Kirk U. Knowlton}, journal={Herz}, year={2000}, volume={25}, pages={227-232} }
Genetic deficiency of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex causes hereditary dilated cardiomyopathy. Enteroviruses can also cause cardiomyopathy and we have recently described a potential molecular mechanism for enterovirus-induced dilated cardiomyopathy. The coxsackieviral protease 2A proteolytically cleaves and functionally impairs dystrophin. Additionally, during infection with coxsackievirus B3, the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex becomes disrupted and the sarcolemmal integrity is lost.This… CONTINUE READING
