Fibroblasts lacking nuclear lamins do not have nuclear blebs or protrusions but nevertheless have frequent nuclear membrane ruptures

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2018
Significance Genetic defects in nuclear lamins or reduced expression of nuclear lamins is accompanied by nuclear blebs and an increased susceptibility for nuclear membrane ruptures.

Lateral A11 type tetramerization in lamins.

open access: yesJournal of Structural Biology, 2019
The assembly of intermediate filaments (IFs) including nuclear lamins is driven by specific interactions of the elementary coiled-coil dimers in both lateral and longitudinal direction. The assembly mode A11 is dependent on lateral tetramerization of the

Lamins in Lung Cancer: Biomarkers and Key Factors for Disease Progression through miR-9 Regulation?

open access: yesCells, 2018
Lung cancer represents the primary cause of cancer death in the world. Malignant cells identification and characterization are crucial for the diagnosis and management of patients with primary or metastatic cancers. In this context, the identification of

Characterization of lamin mutation phenotypes in Drosophila and comparison to human laminopathies. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2007
Lamins are intermediate filament proteins that make up the nuclear lamina, a matrix underlying the nuclear membrane in all metazoan cells that is important for nuclear form and function.

A-type lamins bind both hetero- and euchromatin, the latter being regulated by lamina-associated polypeptide 2 alpha

open access: yesGenome Research, 2016
Lamins are components of the peripheral nuclear lamina and interact with heterochromatic genomic regions, termed lamina-associated domains (LADs).

Nuclear envelope, chromatin organizers, histones, and DNA: The many achilles heels exploited across cancers

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
In eukaryotic cells, the genome is organized in the form of chromatin composed of DNA and histones that organize and regulate gene expression. The dysregulation of chromatin remodeling, including the aberrant incorporation of histone variants and their ...

Strange Laminates

open access: yesMathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, 2012
Laminates made of composite anisotropic layers have a large varieties of different possible elastic responses. Still remaining in the classical field of linear elasticity, it is possible to obtain, with laminates, elastic behaviors that are very strange and completely unusual not only for classical materials, like metallic alloys, but also for the same

Insight into the functional organization of nuclear lamins in health and disease.

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Cell Biology, 2018
Lamins are the main component of the nuclear lamina, a protein meshwork at the inner nuclear membrane which primarily provide mechanical stability to the nucleus. Lamins, type V intermediate filament proteins, are also involved in many nuclear activities.

Cytoplasmic p21 promotes stemness of colon cancer cells via activation of the NFκB pathway

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cytoplasmic p21 promotes colorectal cancer stem cell (CSC) features by destabilizing the NFκB–IκB complex, activating NFκB signaling, and upregulating BCL‐xL and COX2. In contrast to nuclear p21, cytoplasmic p21 enhances spheroid formation and stemness transcription factor CD133.

Need for NAD+: Focus on Striated Muscle Laminopathies

open access: yesCells, 2020
Laminopathies are a heterogeneous group of rare diseases caused by genetic mutations in the LMNA gene, encoding A-type lamins. A-type lamins are nuclear envelope proteins which associate with B-type lamins to form the nuclear lamina, a meshwork ...
