Caldesmon is a multifunctional ubiquitous regulator of the actin cytoskeleton, which can affect both actomyosin contractility and actin polymerization. Previous studies showed that caldesmon over-expression in cultured fibroblasts produces effects that resemble those of chemical inhibitors of cellular contractility. Since these inhibitors (H-7, Y-27632, etc.) have been shown to lower intraocular pressure...
Cytoskeleton modulating compounds have been shown to lower intraocular pressure (IOP) and increase outflow facility. Caldesmon is one protein that is involved in the regulation of actin stress fiber formation. The effects of rat non-muscle caldesmon (Cald) gene over-expression on focal adhesions in human trabecular meshwork (HTM) cells and on outflow facility in organ-cultured human and monkey anterior...
