New online! The direction of cardiomyocyte growth is orchestrated by microtubule dynamics #CardioSky
Nature Reviews Cardiology, Published online: 04 June 2026; doi:10.1038/s41569-026-01311-wA new study shows that the microtube network directs cardiomyocyte growth through two mechanisms: by redirecting the localization of mRNA and protein synthesis and by modifying the intercalated disc, the site of cell–cell adhesion at the ends of the cardiomyocyte.
