Laminopathies represent a wide range of genetic disorders caused by mutations in gene-encoding proteins the nuclear lamina. Altered mechanics have been associated with laminopathies, given key role lamins as mechanosensitive involved mechanotransduction process. To shed light on partners cooperating altered lamins, we focused Src tyrosine kinase, known to phosphorylate Here, demonstrated tight relationship between lamin A/C and skin fibroblasts from two laminopathic patients, assessed advanced imaging-based microscopy techniques. With confocal laser scanning Stimulated Emission Depletion (STED) microscopy, statistically significant higher co-distribution was observed patients’ fibroblasts. Furthermore, time-domain fluorescence lifetime imaging combined Förster resonance energy transfer detection, decreased value (as donor fluorophore) presence acceptor dye) double-stained fibroblast nuclei both healthy cells cells, thereby indicating molecular interaction that resulted significantly cells. All these results demonstrate their aberrant nuclei, thus creating possibilities new diagnostic therapeutic approaches for patients.

Nuclear lamins are type-V intermediate filaments that involved in many nuclear processes. In mammals, A- and B-type assemble into separate physical meshwork underneath the inner membrane, lamina, with some residual fraction localized within nucleoplasm. Lamins major part of nucleoskeleton, providing mechanical strength flexibility to protect genome allow deformability, while also contributing gene regulation via interactions chromatin. While evolutionary ancestors all filament family proteins, their ultimate filamentous assembly is markedly different from cytoplasmic counterparts. Interestingly, hundreds genetic mutations lamina proteins have been causally linked a broad range human pathologies, termed laminopathies. These include muscular, neurological metabolic disorders, as well premature aging diseases. Recent technological advances contributed resolving structure corresponding organization. this review, we revisit multiscale lamin organization discuss its implications on mechanics chromatin lamina-associated domains.

Abstract Background In mammals, specific brain regions such as the dentate gyrus (DG) of hippocampus and subventricular zone (SVZ) lateral ventricles harbor adult neural stem/progenitor cells (ANSPCs) that give rise to new neurons contribute structural functional plasticity. contrast, other vertebrates salamanders zebrafish exhibit a widely distributed neurogenic niches throughout brain, suggesting greater capacity in adulthood. However, mechanisms underlying this divergence potential among remain elusive. To address this, we examined expression dynamics critical epigenetic regulator for long‐term maintenance murine ANSPCs, lamin B1, during neurogenesis across vertebrate spectrum. Results Lamin B1 patterns are conserved mammals including mouse, naked mole‐rat, ferret. these differ between anamniotes. stem neuroblasts exhibited higher levels, differentiated possessed lower levels. On hand, anamniotes showed opposite expression, with levels compared cells. Conclusions Our study shows pattern differs species, changes protein sequence may differences patterns.

FluidFM combined with fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM), enables high-resolution mapping tension dynamics. Here, we used varying nuclear lamina compositions explore lamina’s role initiating mechanoresponse external cues. We found that A-type B-type lamins trigger distinctly, contributing elasticity, whereas influence viscous response. Moreover, MTs underwent adaptation assisted releasing A/C knockout (KO) cells, contrasting healthy where aid preserve locally rather than transferring it. research provides insights into dynamic supports targeted therapies stress-related diseases.

One of the key structural proteins in eukaryotic cell nucleus is lamin. Lamins can assemble into a two-dimensional protein meshwork at nuclear periphery, known as lamina, which provides rigidity and shape to nucleus. Mutations lamin that alter structure lamina underlie laminopathic diseases, including Hutchinson–Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS). Experiments have shown that, compared healthy cells, supramolecular structures (e.g., protofilaments) thicker HGPS, where they form highly stable nematic microdomains reminiscent liquid crystals. This significantly alters morphological mechanical properties In this study, we investigate aggregation fibrous their dissociation kinetics from periphery by modeling them coarse-grained, rod-like polymer chains confined within rigid spherical shell. Our model reproduces formation multidirectional domains surface reduced observed HGPS nuclei adjusting concentration, lamin–lamin (head–tail), lamin–shell association strengths. While phase requires relatively strong affinity under any non-vanishing inter-lamin attraction, thickness layer primarily controlled head–tail strength model. Furthermore, unbinding exhibit concentration-dependent facilitated dissociation, suppressed intra-lamin interactions, diseased nuclei. Overall, our calculations reveal physical mechanisms mutations affecting native interactions concentration could lead an abnormal diseases.
