Levels of intact titin-1 (T1) and proteolytic fragments (T2) in the soleus muscle of rats. (A) SDS-PAGE analysis of titin expression in the soleus muscle of rats. MyHC – myosin heavy chains. T2 (m.w. ∼2000–2100 kDa) are proteolytic fragments of titin. NT and N2A are isoforms of intact titin-1 (T1, m.w. ∼3400–3700 kDa in skeletal muscles). High molecular weight titin isoforms (denoted as NT-titin) were found in striated muscles of mammals (Vikhlyantsev and Podlubnaya, 2017). Plots of densitometric quantification of the T1 content (B) and T2 content (C) relative to MyHC content (n = 5). P < 0.05 as compared to control group. Values are means ± SD.
