A recent study has found that extracellular vimentin can bind to the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike protein in vitro, and antibodies against vimentin can decrease ...

A recent iScience journal study reports that cell-surface vimentin functions as a co-receptor for the entry of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) into host cells to ...

Binge drinking is known to increase the risk of developing dementia and/or brain damage. A new study used rodents to test markers of neurodegeneration to determine a threshold for brain damage. The ...

Recent evidence has enhanced the image of astrocytes, suggesting these glial cells are a source for stem cells (see ARF related news story), and that they mop up Aβ (see ARF related news story). But ...

Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . NEW ORLEANS — Increased vimentin at the time of retinal detachment repair may help predict later development of ...

Changes to the intermediate filament (IF) protein, vimentin, were found to promote tumor growth by increasing cancer stemness in an oestrogen independent manner. Targeting vimentin and/or the long ...

Initiation of targeted therapy based on ctDNA only in metastatic NSCLC. This is an ASCO Meeting Abstract from the 2019 ASCO Annual Meeting I. This abstract does not include a full text component.

Quality of life (QoL) and content validity in objective tumor response. This is an ASCO Meeting Abstract from the 2013 ASCO Annual Meeting I. This abstract does not include a full text component.

Necrotizing fasciitis and myonecrosis caused by invasive infection with group A streptococci (GAS) are life-threatening conditions that have reemerged worldwide. Half of all GAS myonecrosis cases have ...

The intermediate filaments of most epithelial cells in vivo consist solely of cytokeratins. Using monoclonal antibodies to vimentin or keratin, we have examined the expression of vimentin in ...
