OGT (O-GlcNAc Transferase) Selectively Modifies Multiple Residues Unique to Lamin A

open access: yesCells, 2018
The LMNA gene encodes lamins A and C with key roles in nuclear structure, signaling, gene regulation, and genome integrity. Mutations in LMNA cause over 12 diseases (‘laminopathies’). Lamins A and C are identical for their first 566 residues.

The effects of environmental and classroom noise on the academic attainments of primary school children [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
While at school children are exposed to various types of noise including external, environmental noise and noise generated within the classroom. Previous research has shown that noise has detrimental effects upon children?s performance at school ...

Involvement of Lamin B1 Reduction in Accelerated Cellular Senescence during Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Pathogenesis

open access: yesJournal of Immunology, 2019
Downregulation of lamin B1 has been recognized as a crucial step for development of full senescence. Accelerated cellular senescence linked to mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase (MTOR) signaling and accumulation of mitochondrial damage has been ...

Harnessing Cellular Feeling: Epigenetic to Mechanical Memory as a Framework for Stem Cell Manufacturing

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stem cell‐based therapies hold transformative potential for regenerative medicine, yet their progress is constrained by persistent variability in manufacturing and clinical performance. Conventional frameworks such as Quality by Design (QbD), though effective for drugs and biologics, struggle to accommodate the dynamic nature of living cell ...

Lamin A/C and PI(4,5)P2—A Novel Complex in the Cell Nucleus

open access: yesCells
Lamins, the nuclear intermediate filaments, are important regulators of nuclear structural integrity as well as nuclear functional processes such as DNA transcription, replication and repair, and epigenetic regulations.

Nuclear Entanglement: New Insights Into the Role of Cytoskeleton and Nucleoskeleton in Plant Nuclear Function

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Of the three types of cytoskeleton known in animals—actin, microtubules, and intermediate filaments—only actin and microtubules exist in plants. Both play important roles in cellular shaping, organelle movement, organization of the endomembrane system, and cell signaling.

Deciphering Nuclear Mechanobiology in Laminopathy

open access: yesCells, 2019
Extracellular mechanical stimuli are translated into biochemical signals inside the cell via mechanotransduction. The nucleus plays a critical role in mechanoregulation, which encompasses mechanosensing and mechanotransduction.

Loss of lamin B1 is a biomarker to quantify cellular senescence in photoaged skin

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Skin ageing is an inevitable consequence of life and accelerated by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays. Senescence is an irreversible growth arrest and senescent cells accumulate in ageing tissues, at sites of age-related pathologies and in pre-neoplastic

Titin Is Present in the Elastic Tethers That Connect Separating Anaphase Chromosomes in Crane‐Fly Spermatocytes

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Elastic tethers connect telomeres of separating chromosomes in anaphase of animal cells. Immunofluorescence staining of titin in crane‐fly spermatocytes, using 4 different antibodies, shows that the giant elastic protein titin seems to be a component of mitotic tethers: titin “strands” extend between separating chromosomes, connecting their ...

The Nuclear Lamina as an Organizer of Chromosome Architecture

open access: yesCells, 2019
The nuclear lamina (NL) is a meshwork of lamins and lamin-associated proteins adjoining the inner side of the nuclear envelope. In early embryonic cells, the NL mainly suppresses background transcription, whereas, in differentiated cell types, its ...
