New study (@seongwonhan.bsky.social et al doi.org/10.1085/jgp....) reveals that glycerol storage increases the titin-based stiffness of muscle fibers, suggesting that this commonly used method should be avoided by researchers interested in the passive properties of muscle rupress.org/jgp/article/...

[🚨New paper alert!]
If you store muscle tissue in glycerol-mixed solution for long-term preservation, check out our new paper published in @jgp.org. Glycerol storage significantly elevates passive stiffness of muscle fibers in a titin-specific manner!

Glycerol storage increases passive stiffness of muscle fibers through effects on titin extensibility | Journal of General Physiology | Rockefeller University Press
To store and preserve muscle function, glycerol is often used, but its effect on passive properties is unclear. Muscles stored in glycerol showed increased

📢Another single myofibrillar work just published at @jbiomech.bsky.social! We found single cardiac myofibrils exhibit residual force depression after active shortening, similar to what's been found in skeletal muscle. Want more details? Check it out below!

Paper alert!📢
We systematically explored the nature of sarcomere length non-uniformity using single myofibrils, and found that sarcomere length non-uniformity does NOT occur randomly in both active and passive states!

Gaining new understanding of sarcomere length non-uniformities in skeletal muscles
Sarcomere lengths are non-uniform on all structural levels of mammalian skeletal muscle. These nonuniformities have been associated with a variety of mechanical properties, including residual force en...

Image that makes me excited every time I see - single myofibrils labelled with fluorescent dyes. Trying to capture videos to see how these labels move during passive/active lengthening and shortening!
