Mitochondrial damage and associated oxidative stress are considered to be major contributory factors in cardiac pathology. One of the most potent naturally occurring antioxidants is taxifolin, especially in its water-soluble form. Herein, the effect of a 14-day course of the peroral application of the water-soluble taxifolin (aqTAX, 15 mg/kg of body weight) on the progression of ultrastructural and functional disorders in mitochondria and the heart's electrical activity in a rat model of myocardial injury induced with isoprenaline (ISO, 150 mg/kg/day for two consecutive days, ) was studied.

Using produced polyclonal antibodies specific to the N-terminal sequence (residues 61-298) of rat obscurin, we investigated the isoform composition of this protein in 4 striated muscles: myocardium of the left ventricle, diaphragm, skeletal m. gastrocnemius (containing mainly fast fibers), and m. soleus (containing mainly slow fibers).

Titin is a multidomain protein of striated and smooth muscles of vertebrates. The protein consists of repeating immunoglobulin-like (Ig) and fibronectin-like (FnIII) domains, which are β-sandwiches with a predominant β-structure, and also contains disordered regions. In this work, the methods of atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray diffraction, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were used to study the morphology and structure of aggregates of rabbit skeletal muscle titin obtained in two different solutions: 0.
