Finally out after 9 years in the making: our study shows that developing heart and skeletal muscle tissues become substantially more contractile when they mature in a stiff environment.

This is a catastrophe. While Finland has downgraded the MDPI and Frontiers journals to level 0 (meaning these publications are not recognized for research evaluation purposes), Germany has signed an agreement to promote publications in MDPI journals.

Our New Preprint: A non-muscle α-actinin is an intrinsic component of the cardiac Z-disc and regulates sarcomere turnover, contractility, and heart remodeling
Now it is time to find a journal that will send it out for review..........
