Simple Summary Vimentin is an important filamentous protein providing structural and
functional support to the cell. During initial stages of cancer development, vimentin …

Cell migration is a highly dynamic process driven by the cytoskeleton, which mainly
comprises the actin microfilaments, microtubules, and intermediate filaments. During …

The cytoskeleton plays an integral role in maintaining the integrity of epithelial cells.
Epithelial cells primarily employ cytokeratin in their cytoskeleton, whereas mesenchymal …

Intermediate filaments constitute the third component of the cellular skeleton. Unlike actin
and microtubule cytoskeletons, the intermediate filaments are composed of a wide variety of …

Modulations of cytoskeletal organization and focal adhesion turnover correlate to
tumorigenesis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), the latter process accompanied …

Smooth muscle cell migration has been implicated in the development of respiratory and
cardiovascular systems; and airway/vascular remodeling. Cell migration is a polarized …

Vimentin is a protein that has been linked to a large variety of pathophysiological conditions,
including cataracts, Crohn's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, HIV and cancer. Vimentin has also …

Vimentin, a major constituent of the intermediate filament family of proteins, is ubiquitously
expressed in normal mesenchymal cells and is known to maintain cellular integrity and …

Vimentin, an abundant cytoplasmic intermediate filament protein, is recognized for its
important role in stabilizing intracellular structure. Vimentin has been recognized for its …

Intermediate filaments (IFs) are cytoskeletal and nucleoskeletal structures that provide
mechanical and stress-co** resilience to cells, contribute to subcellular and tissue-specific …
