“…Alterations in cytoskeletal and contractile proteins due to calpain protease up-regulation causes the degradation of proteins such as myosin, F-actin, and titin, resulting in a disorganized sarcomere (Ellis et al 2010). The proteolytic activity of calpains leads to intracellular degradation of proteins such as Titin, an essential contractile protein of the sarcomere (Kunkel, Chaturvedi, and Tyagi 2015a).…”
