Expression of oestrogen and progesterone receptor and intermediate filament proteins in the oviduct of mares with endometrosis [PDF]
Animal Science and Genetics, 2023 Equine endometrosis is one of the major causes of equine infertility, often associated with signs of periglandular fibrosis occurring in the endometrium.

Deimination, Intermediate Filaments and Associated Proteins [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020 Deimination (or citrullination) is a post-translational modification catalyzed by a calcium-dependent enzyme family of five peptidylarginine deiminases (PADs). Deimination is involved in physiological processes (cell differentiation, embryogenesis, innate and adaptive immunity, etc.) and in autoimmune diseases (rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis ...

Contrasting expression of keratins in mouse and human embryonic stem cells. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2008 RNA expression data reveals that human embryonic stem (hES) cells differ from mouse ES (mES) cells in the expression of RNAs for keratin intermediate filament proteins.

Complete Structure of an Epithelial Keratin Dimer: Implications for Intermediate Filament Assembly. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Keratins are cytoskeletal proteins that hierarchically arrange into filaments, starting with the dimer sub-unit. They are integral to the structural support of cells, in skin, hair and nails.

Role of Intermediate Filaments in Vesicular Traffic
Cells, 2016 Intermediate filaments are an important component of the cellular cytoskeleton. The first established role attributed to intermediate filaments was the mechanical support to cells.

Epithelial Intermediate Filaments: Guardians against Microbial Infection?
Cells, 2016 Intermediate filaments are abundant cytoskeletal components of epithelial tissues. They have been implicated in overall stress protection. A hitherto poorly investigated area of research is the function of intermediate filaments as a barrier to microbial
