Cardiac function relies on the autonomous molecular contraction mechanisms in the ventricular wall. Contraction is driven by ordered motor proteins acting in parallel to generate a macroscopic force. The averaged structure can be investigated by diffraction from model tissues such as trabecular and papillary cardiac muscle using collimated synchrotron beams, offering high resolution in reciprocal space. In the ventricular wall, however, the muscle tissue is compartmentalized into smaller branched cardiomyocytes, with a higher degree of disorder. We show that X-ray diffraction is now also capable of resolving the structural organization of actomyosin in single isolated cardiomyocytes of the ventricular wall. In addition to the hexagonal arrangement of thick and thin filaments, the diffraction signal of the hydrated and fixated cardiomyocytes was sufficient to reveal the myosin motor repeat (M3), the troponin complex repeat (Tn), and the sarcomere length. The sarcomere length signal comprised up to 13 diffraction orders, which were used to compute the sarcomere density profile based on Fourier synthesis. The Tn and M3 spacings were found in the same range as previously reported for other muscle types. The approach opens up a pathway to record the structural dynamics of living cells during the contraction cycle, toward a more complete understanding of cardiac muscle function.
