Cancer Cells Traverse Faster in Confined Space by Modifying Vimentin filaments With Nuclear Deformation and Promoting the Growth of Desired Tumor Spheroids

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates how the Vimentin intermediate (VIM) filaments distribution/density regulates the attainment of different migration modes through cytoskeleton rearrangement and controls the nuclear morphology in migrating cells under physical confinement, which facilitates the faster traversing of those cells and the growth of post‐migration ...

Ancient eukaryotic origin and evolutionary plasticity of nuclear lamina [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The emergence of the nucleus was a major event of eukaryogenesis. How the nuclear envelope (NE) arose and acquired functions governing chromatin organization and epigenetic control has direct bearing on origins of developmental/stage-specific expression ...

An Injection‐Molded Modified Silicone Rubber for Cancer‐on‐Chip Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
This study describes the characterization and application of an injection‐molded functionalized PDMS fluidic insert for the commercially available Micronit system. Modified PDMS can accommodate cell culture and is able to covalently bind proteins for long‐lasting coatings under flow‐conditions.

Role of lamins in 3D genome organization and global gene expression

open access: yesNucleus, 2019
Genome-wide mapping of lamin-B1-genome interactions has shown that gene-poor and transcriptionally inactive genomic regions are associated with the nuclear lamina.

Implications and Assessment of the Elastic Behavior of Lamins in Laminopathies

open access: yesCells, 2016
Lamins are mechanosensitive and elastic components of the nuclear lamina that respond to external mechanical cues by altering gene regulation in a feedback mechanism.

Weaving a pattern from disparate threads: lamin function in nuclear assembly and DNA replication [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The major residual structure that remains associated with the nuclear envelope following extraction of isolated nuclei or oocyte germinal vesicles with non-ionic detergents, nucleases and high salt is the lamina (Fawcett, 1966; Aaronson and Blobel ...

Mice with reduced expression of the telomere-associated protein Ft1 develop p53-sensitive progeroid traits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Human AKTIP and mouse Ft1 are orthologous ubiquitin E2 variant proteins involved in telomere maintenance and DNA replication. AKTIP also interacts with A- and B-type lamins.

A Patient‐Derived Organoid Biobank of Adamantinomatous Craniopharyngioma as a Platform for Drug Discovery

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study successfully establishes adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma (ACP) patient‐derived organoids (PDOs) that preserve the histopathological and genetic features of the original tumors. Through drug sensitivity assays and subsequent mechanistic analyses, the study demonstrates that Ceritinib exerts its inhibitory effects on ACP PDO growth by ...

Identification of epigenetic modulators as determinants of nuclear size and shape

open access: yeseLife, 2023
The shape and size of the human cell nucleus is highly variable among cell types and tissues. Changes in nuclear morphology are associated with disease, including cancer, as well as with premature and normal aging.

Studies of the lamin proteinase reveal multiple parallel biochemical pathways during apoptotic execution [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
Although specific proteinases play a critical role in the active phase of apoptosis, their substrates are largely unknown. We previously identified poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) as an apoptosis-associated substrate for proteinase(s) related to ...
