Epigenetic deregulation of lamina-associated domains in Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome [PDF]
Abstract Background Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a progeroid disease characterized by the early onset of age-related phenotypes including arthritis, loss of body fat and hair, and atherosclerosis. Cells from affected individuals express a mutant version of the nuclear envelope

Lamina-associated domains: Tethers and looseners
Lamina-associated domains (LADs) are large heterochromatic regions that are positioned at the nuclear lamina (NL). A major question is how LAD-NL interactions are mediated and controlled. Here, we review recent progress in the search for molecular tethers and looseners of LADs and we discuss the link between LAD-NL tethering, transcription regulation ...

Lamina-associated domains: peripheral matters and internal affairs [PDF]
AbstractAt the nuclear periphery, associations of chromatin with the nuclear lamina through lamina-associated domains (LADs) aid functional organization of the genome. We review the organization of LADs and provide evidence of LAD heterogeneity from cell ensemble and single-cell data.

Barrier-to-autointegration factor proteome reveals chromatin-regulatory partners. [PDF]
Nuclear lamin filaments and associated proteins form a nucleoskeletal ("lamina") network required for transcription, replication, chromatin organization and epigenetic regulation in metazoans.

Optic nerve cavitations in glaucoma suspect and glaucoma patients
Purpose: Glaucoma is associated with structural changes of the optic nerve head such as deformation, lamina cribosa defects, prelaminar schisis, and peripapillary retinal schisis. We describe optic nerve cavitations that were detected by routine spectral

Role of histone deacetylases in gene regulation at nuclear lamina.
Theoretical models suggest that gene silencing at the nuclear periphery may involve "closing" of chromatin by transcriptional repressors, such as histone deacetylases (HDACs). Here we provide experimental evidence confirming these predictions.

Mapping the micro-proteome of the nuclear lamina and lamin associated domains [PDF]
Abstract The nuclear lamina is a proteinaceous network of filaments that provide both structural and gene regulatory functions by tethering proteins and large domains of DNA, so-called lamin associated domains (LADs), to the periphery of the nucleus. LADs are a large fraction of the mammalian genome that are repressed, in part, by their

The nuclear envelope protein, LAP1B, is a novel protein phosphatase 1 substrate. [PDF]
Protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) binding proteins are quintessential regulators, determining substrate specificity and defining subcellular localization and activity of the latter.

Many mammalian genes exhibit circadian expression patterns concordant with periodic binding of transcription factors, chromatin modifications, and chromosomal interactions. Here we investigate whether chromatin periodically associates with nuclear lamins.

Optic disc microvasculature dropout in primary open-angle glaucoma measured with optical coherence tomography angiography. [PDF]
PURPOSE:To evaluate microvasculature dropout in the optic disc (Mvd-D) using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) and investigate factors associated with Mvd-D in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) eyes.
