Defective association of dystrophin with sarcolemmal glycoproteins in the cardiomyopathic hamster heart.
    FEBS letters, 1993, Aug-23, Volume: 329, Issue:1-2

    In ventricular muscle from 30- to 60-day-old Bio 14.6 cardiomyopathic hamsters, dystrophin-associated glycoproteins of 43, 50 and 150 kDa are markedly reduced in abundance. In particular, the 50-kDa glycoprotein is totally deficient in the sarcolemma of myopathic ventricular myocytes as revealed by immunofluorescence microscopy. The dystrophin-glycoprotein complex formation is defective in the cardiomyopathic hamster heart, because dystrophin and the glycoproteins behave independently when digitonin-solubilized ventricular homogenates are fractionated on wheat germ agglutinin beads or anti-dystrophin immunoaffinity beads.
