Intermediate filament–membrane attachments function synergistically with actin-dependent contacts to regulate intercellular adhesive strength [PDF]

, 2002
By tethering intermediate filaments (IFs) to sites of intercellular adhesion, desmosomes facilitate formation of a supercellular scaffold that imparts mechanical strength to a tissue.

Molecular characterisation of human penile carcinoma and generation of paired epithelial primary cell lines

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Generation of two normal and tumour (cancerous) paired human cell lines using an established tissue culture technique and their characterisation is described. Cell lines were characterised at cellular, protein, chromosome and gene expression levels and for HPV status.

DYNAMICS OF INTERMEDIATE FILAMENT PROTEIN EXPRESSION IN THE BUFFALO UTERUS DURING THE FOLLICULAR AND LUTEAL PHASE OF THE ESTROUS CYCLE [PDF]

Exploratory Animal and Medical Research
Laminin and vimentin are two intermediate filaments that play a pivotal role in uterine cellular proliferation, differentiation, maintaining cellular integrity or stability, receptivity, and the implantation process.

Plecstatin inhibits hepatocellular carcinoma tumorigenesis and invasion through cytolinker plectin

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The ruthenium‐based metallodrug plecstatin exerts its anticancer effect in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) primarily through selective targeting of plectin. By disrupting plectin‐mediated cytoskeletal organization, plecstatin inhibits anchorage‐dependent growth, cell polarization, and tumor cell dissemination.

Desmin: molecular interactions and putative functions of the muscle intermediate filament protein

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2004
Desmin is the intermediate filament (IF) protein occurring exclusively in muscle and endothelial cells. There are other IF proteins in muscle such as nestin, peripherin, and vimentin, besides the ubiquitous lamins, but they are not unique to muscle ...

Hierarchical structure controls nanomechanical properties of vimentin intermediate filaments. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2009
Intermediate filaments (IFs), in addition to microtubules and microfilaments, are one of the three major components of the cytoskeleton in eukaryotic cells, playing a vital role in mechanotransduction and in providing mechanical stability to cells ...

Machine learning based data mining for Milky Way filamentary structures reconstruction [PDF]

, 2016
We present an innovative method called FilExSeC (Filaments Extraction, Selection and Classification), a data mining tool developed to investigate the possibility to refine and optimize the shape reconstruction of filamentary structures detected with a ...

Protein O‐glycosylation in the Bacteroidota phylum

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Species of the Bacteroidota phylum exhibit a unique O‐glycosylation system. It modifies noncytoplasmic proteins on a specific amino acid motif with a shared glycan core but a species‐specific outer glycan. A locus of multiple glycosyltransferases responsible for the synthesis of the outer glycan has been identified.

Вплив гіпертиреозу на процеси навчання та стан гліальних проміжних філаментів головного мозку щурів

Regulatory Mechanisms in Biosystems, 2014
Досліджено вплив гіпертиреозу на показники окисного стресу, стан гліальних проміжних філаментів і пам’ять. У мозку щурів із гіпертиреозом визначено достовірне зростання вмісту продуктів перекисного окиснення ліпідів і погіршення процесу запам’ятовування.
