Nuclear Organization in Stress and Aging
The eukaryotic nucleus controls most cellular processes. It is isolated from the cytoplasm by the nuclear envelope, which plays a prominent role in the structural organization of the cell, including nucleocytoplasmic communication, chromatin positioning,

Nanoscale Curvature Regulates YAP/TAZ Nuclear Localization Through Nuclear Deformation and Rupture
This study uses experiments and biophysical modeling to examine the response and adaptation of cells to nanoscale topography of surfaces. It is shown that cytoskeletal assembly and nuclear localization of transcription regulatory factors such as yes‐associated protein (YAP) and transcriptional coactivator with PDZ‐binding motif (TAZ) can be tuned by ...

Myonuclear alterations associated with exercise are independent of age in humans
Abstract figure legend Structural and mechanical properties of myonuclei in trained young and aged individuals. In skeletal muscle fibres from trained individuals, myonuclei are more spherical, have greater lamin A and are stiffer compared to untrained counterparts.

Aims LMNA‐related dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a rare disease with an incompletely defined phenotype. The phase 3 REALM‐DCM trial evaluated a potential disease‐modifying therapy for LMNA‐related DCM but was terminated due to futility without safety ...

Progeria, a model for accelerated aging exhibited by HIV patients? [PDF]
International audienceTo confirm, among HIV1-infected patients, data from in vitro studies showing that antiretroviral therapies (ART) induce an accelerated aging through the same mechanism than genetic laminopathies (progeria) and «physiological » aging,

Les lipodystrophies secondaires aux traitements antirétroviraux de l’infection par le VIH [PDF]
Les traitements antirétroviraux de l’infection par le VIH sont responsables d’effets secondaires parfois sévères qui touchent en priorité le tissu adipeux, modifiant sa localisation (lipodystrophie avec lipoatrophie périphérique et hypertrophie centrale)

The Emerging Role of Lamin C as an Important LMNA Isoform in Mechanophenotype
Lamin A and lamin C isoforms of the gene LMNA are major structural and mechanotransductive components of the nuclear lamina. Previous reports have proposed lamin A as the isoform with the most dominant contributions to cellular mechanophenotype. Recently,

The laminopathies: nuclear structure meets disease
Most inherited diseases are associated with mutations in a specific gene. Sometimes, mutations in two or more different genes result in diseases with a similar phenotype. Rarely do different mutations in the same gene result in a multitude of seemingly different and unrelated diseases.
