Disruptions in T-tubule organization are frequently observed in heart diseases and are associated with impaired contractile function and malignant arrhythmias. In mammalian cells, the ESCRT (endosomal sorting complex required for transport) proteins mediate a fundamental mechanism for membrane deformation. This study aimed to elucidate the roles of key ESCRT proteins, including Chmp4b (charged multivesicular body protein 4b) and Tsg101 (tumor susceptibility gene 101), in the formation and maintenance of T-tubules.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>METHODS:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Myocardial-specific gene deletion was achieved using\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Chmp4b<\/jats:italic>\n                      <jats:sup>\n                        <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">F\/F<\/jats:italic>\n                      <\/jats:sup>\n                      ,\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Tsg101<\/jats:italic>\n                      <jats:sup>\n                        <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">F\/F<\/jats:italic>\n                      <\/jats:sup>\n                      , and\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Rosa26<\/jats:italic>\n                      <jats:sup>\n                        <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Cas9-GFP<\/jats:italic>\n                      <\/jats:sup>\n                      mouse strains in conjunction with adeno-associated virus 9\u2013mediated gene editing.

Chmp4b polymerizes and binds to PtdIns(4,5)P2 (Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate) as well as other negatively charged membrane lipids, driving plasma membrane invagination in a process that depends on the ESCRT-I component Tsg101. In mature cardiomyocytes, Chmp4b remains anchored to the T-tubule membranes to maintain their structure, while Tsg101 detaches and becomes dispensable for T-tubule organization. Chmp4b expression was significantly reduced in heart samples from dilated cardiomyopathy patients and in a mouse model of heart failure.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n
