Down-regulation of the Lamin A/C in neuroblastoma triggers the expansion of tumor initiating cells [PDF]
Tumor-initiating cells constitute a population within a tumor mass that shares properties with normal stem cells and is considered responsible for therapy failure in many cancers.

Intrinsic structural disorder in cytoskeletal proteins. [PDF]
Cytoskeleton, the internal scaffold of the cell, displays an exceptional combination of stability and dynamics. It is composed of three major filamentous networks, microfilaments (actin filaments), intermediate filaments (neurofilaments), and ...

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

Genomic instability and DNA replication defects in progeroid syndromes [PDF]
Progeroid syndromes induced by mutations in lamin A or in its interactors – named progeroid laminopathies – are model systems for the dissection of the molecular pathways causing physio- logical and premature aging.

Probing the environment of emerin by Enhanced ascorbate peroxidase 2 (APEX2)-mediated proximity labeling. [PDF]
Emerin is one of the best characterized proteins of the inner nuclear membrane, but can also occur at the level of the endoplasmic reticulum. We now use enhanced ascorbate peroxidase 2 (APEX2) to probe the environment of emerin.

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

PARP inhibitors induce a senescence phenotype in non‐small cell lung carcinoma cell lines
Talazoparib is the most potent inducer of senescence among different PARP1 inhibitors in human NSCLC cells. In the absence of PARP, no senescence phenotype was observed, demonstrating that PARP1 is necessary for the induction of senescence by this inhibitor.

Vimentin filaments are assembled from a soluble precursor in avian erythroid cells [PDF]
The synthesis and assembly of vimentin was studied in erythroid cells from 10-d-old chicken embryos. After various periods of [35S]methionine incorporation, cells were lysed in a Triton X-100-containing buffer and separated into a soluble and an ...
