Gene Information from Publications

Publication Link Summary of findings
12235157 Data suggest that changes in intracellular calcium may play a role in shifts in myosin heavy chain IIa (MyHC IIa) expression during muscle activation.
11889243 investigated the relation between expression of the mutant MyHC IIa and pathologic changes in muscle
15741996 analysis of normal variation indicates that there is strong selective pressure against mutations in MYH2; On the basis of these results, we suggest that MyHC genes should be regarded as candidate genes in hereditary myopathies of unknown etiology.
17005402 Our results provide evidence that the pathogenesis of the MyHC IIa E706K myopathy involves defective function of the mutated myosin as well as alterations in the structural integrity of all muscle cells irrespective of MyHC isoform expression.
15496418 IRF-2 is involved in up-regulation of nonmuscle myosin heavy chain II-A gene expression in cell differentiation
