Loss of cytoskeletal proteostasis links dysregulation of cell size and mechanotransduction in mesenchymal stem cell senescence

This study shows that loss of cytoskeletal proteostasis in senescent mesenchymal stem cells disrupts mechanotransduction and matrix protein secretion, linking cell size dysregulation to tissue maintenance issues.

Vimentin is Required for Tumor Progression and Metastasis in a Mouse Model of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

This study shows that vimentin is essential for metastasis in a mouse model of non-small cell lung cancer, as its loss impairs epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and oxidative stress response.
