Advanced Science, EarlyView.BNC2 exhibits context‐dependent opposing functions across multiple cancer types. This study reveals BNC2 as an oncogenic driver of melanoma proliferation and metastasis through transcriptional activation of PIK3CA. The natural compound TSN simultaneously degrades BNC2 and its oncogenic partner SMAD3 via CRBN‐dependent ubiquitination.

Post-Translational Modification of Lamins: Mechanisms and Functions
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 Lamins are the ancient type V intermediate filament proteins contributing to diverse biological functions, such as the maintenance of nuclear morphology, stabilization of chromatin architecture, regulation of cell cycle progression, regulation of spatial-

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Microgels enable independent control of stiffness and interstitial space, overcoming limitations of conventional 3D hydrogels. Using fragmented gelatin methacryloyl microgels, we show that stiffness does not restrict non‐metastatic breast cancer growth, contrary to bulk hydrogels, and reveal the role of adherent‐to‐suspension transition in cancer ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Pathological tissue rigidity mechanoprimes microglia by enhancing actin cytoskeleton–nucleus coupling and chromatin opening at rigidity‐responsive cis‐regulatory elements (mechanoCREs). Subsequent NF‐κB/p65 signaling converges on this permissive regulatory state to amplify inflammatory gene expression and microglial activation.

The multiple roles of A-type lamins in cellular aging, cell cycle progression and the DNA damage response. [PDF]
, 2011 A-type lamins are a group of type V intermediate filaments whose main members are lamin A and C. Lamins A/C are components of the nuclear lamina and are encoded by the LMNA gene.

The intriguing plant nuclear lamina
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014 The nuclear lamina is a complex protein mesh attached to the inner nuclear membrane, which is also associated with nuclear pore complexes. It provides mechanical support to the nucleus and nuclear envelope, and as well as facilitating the connection of ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.An injectable and self‐reinforcing RSF‐based piezoelectric hydrogel conforms to irregular bone defects and progressively strengthens in situ, overcoming the trade‐off between injectability and mechanical stability. Mechanical loading generates bioelectrical cues that promote P300‐mediated H3K9 acetylation and upregulate PTH1R expression, thereby ...

Real‐Time Monitoring of Mass and Mechanical Properties in Single Cells and Multicellular Spheroids
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study introduces photothermally actuated microcantilevers combined with optical microscopy to simultaneously measure morphology, mass, and mechanical properties of cellular systems in real‐time. The findings link cytoplasm‐dominated mechanical energy dissipation to the Q‐factor as a novel biophysical parameter.
