In epithelial cells the cytoplasmic side of desmosomes, the ‘desmosomal plaque’, represents a specific attachment structure for the anchorage of intermediate filaments (IF) of the cytokeratin type. Cardiac myocytes do not contain cytokeratin filaments. In primary cultures of rat cardiac myocytes, we have examined by immunofluorescence and electron microscopy, using single and double label techniques, whether other types of IF are attached to the desmosomal plaques of the heart. Antibodies to desmoplakin, the major protein of the desmosomal plaque, have been used to label specifically the desmosomal plaques. It is shown that the desmoplakin-containing structures are often associated with IF stained by antibodies to desmin, i.e., the characteristic type of IF present in these cells. Like cytokeratin filaments in epithelial cells, desmin filaments attach laterally to the desmosomal plaque. They also remain attached to these plaques after endocytotic internalization of desmosomal domains by treatment of the cells with EGTA. These desmin filaments do not appear to attach to junctions of the fascia adherens type and to nexuses (gap junctions). These observations show that anchorage at desmosomal plaques is not restricted to IF of the cytokeratin type and that IF composed of either cytokeratin or desmin, specifically attach, in a lateral fashion, to desmoplakin-containing regions of the plasma membrane. We conclude that special domains exist in these two IF proteins that are involved in binding to the desmosomal plaque.
