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 is an intermediate filament protein that plays key roles in integration of cytoskeletal
functions, and therefore in basic cellular processes such as cell division and migration …

As a member of the large family of intermediate filaments (IFs), vimentin has emerged as a
highly dynamic and versatile cytoskeletal protein involved in many key processes of wound …

Vimentin expression contributes to cellular mechanoprotection and is a widely recognized
marker of fibroblasts and of epithelial-mesenchymal transition. But it is not understood how …

Vimentin is a major type III intermediate filament protein that plays important roles in several
basic cellular functions including cell migration, proliferation, and division. Although vimentin …

Intermediate filaments (IFs) formed by vimentin are less understood than their cytoskeletal
partners, microtubules and F‐actin, but the unique physical properties of IFs, especially their …

Vimentin is a cytoskeletal protein important for many cellular processes, including
proliferation, migration, invasion, stress resistance, signaling, and many more. The vimentin …

In the last few decades, it has been established that astrocytes play key roles in the
regulation of neuronal morphology. However, the contribution of astrocyte-derived small …

Astrocytes are commonly identified by their expression of the intermediate filament protein
glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP). GFAP-immunoreactive (GFAP-IR) astrocytes exhibit …

Following injury, mesenchymal repair cells are activated to function as leader cells that
modulate wound healing. These cells have the potential to differentiate to myofibroblasts …
