Assessment of Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition Markers in Breast Carcinoma and its Association with Histopathological Grading, Size and Metastasis [PDF]
Introduction: Carcinoma breast is the most common malignancy affecting women worldwide. Early detection is key to its effective management. Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) has implications in progression of breast carcinoma and metastasis ...

Phosphorylation by Cdk1 induces Plk1-mediated vimentin phosphorylation during mitosis [PDF]
Several kinases phosphorylate vimentin, the most common intermediate filament protein, in mitosis. Aurora-B and Rho-kinase regulate vimentin filament separation through the cleavage furrow-specific vimentin phosphorylation.

A novel presentation of cutaneous angiosarcoma: A case report and review
We report a case of a 70-year-old male, with slowly widening induration, ulceration, and oozing for 3 months on the scalp and face. The diagnosis of aggressive cutaneous angiosarcoma was made on histopathology and immunochemistry from the biopsy material

Withania somnifera Root Extract Inhibits Mammary Cancer Metastasis and Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition [PDF]
Though clinicians can predict which patients are at risk for developing metastases, traditional therapies often prove ineffective and metastatic disease is the primary cause of cancer patient death; therefore, there is a need to develop anti-metastatic ...

Zonula occludens 2 and Cell-Cell Contacts Are Required for Normal Nuclear Shape in Epithelia
MAGUK protein ZO-2 is present at tight junctions (TJs) and nuclei. In MDCK ZO-2 knockdown (KD) cells, nuclei exhibit an irregular shape with lobules and indentations.

A Small Vimentin-Binding Molecule Blocks Cancer Exosome Release and Reduces Cancer Cell Mobility
Vimentin is an intermediate filament protein with diverse roles in health and disease far beyond its structural functions. Exosomes or small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) are key mediators for intercellular communication, contributing to tissue ...
