Vimentin as a potential molecular target in cancer therapy Or Vimentin, an overview and its potential as a molecular target for cancer therapy (2011, unknown): “Interestingly, vimentin (-/-) embryonic stem cell-derived tumors showed a pattern of composition similar to that of teratocarcinomas induced by wild-type embryonic stem cells, suggesting that vimentin is not essential for efficient tumor growth and differentiation in vivo [22]; conversely, several i”
Physiology of Astroglia. (2018, unknown): “It is involved in many cellular functions and in particular in regulation of cell differentiation, adhesion, migration, regeneration stress, and cellular signaling (774).”
Vimentin regulates EMT induction by Slug and oncogenic H-Ras and migration by governing Axl expression in breast cancer (2011, background): “In fibroblasts, vimentin filaments connect the nucleus to the plasma membrane and contribute to the formation of vimentin-associated matrix adhesions that are dynamically turned over in migrating cells (Ivaska et al., 2007).”
