Analysis of Mitochondrial 3D-Deformation in Cardiomyocytes during Active Contraction Reveals Passive Structural Anisotropy of Orthogonal Short Axes

The cardiomyocyte cytoskeleton, composed of rigid and elastic elements, maintains the isolated cell in an elongated cylindrical shape with an elliptical cross-section, even during contraction-relaxation cycles. Cardiomyocyte mitochondria are micron-sized, fluid-filled passive spheres distributed thr...
