Gene Information from Publications

Publication Link Summary of findings
18219106 Primary colorectal carcinomas display aberrant expression of vimentin, and have activated Notch and TGFbeta signaling pathways.
17960581 Rults indicate that cysteine 328 in vimention is the main site for prostaglandin PGA(1) addition.
17719575 The suppression of vimentin expression by ras, and the relief of this suppression by TGFbeta, occurs in a promoter-independent fashion, possibly through sequences in the first or second intron.
17663720 ZBP-89 functions as a repressor by recruiting HDAC1 to the vimentin promoter.
17652163 The nestin(-) vimentin(+) fibroblasts may represent a novel type of multipotent adult stem cells in human dermis.
17476115 Vimentin is a major arterial substrate for transglutaminases.Transglutaminase-mediated vimentin dimerization produces a novel unifying pathway by which vasodilatory and remodeling responses may be regulated.
17585878 In conclusion, ablation of vimentin expression inhibits migration and invasion of colon and breast cancer cell lines.
15255035 It is unlikely that ependymal vimentin is directly involved in the pathogenesis of Chiari II malformation, but may reflect a secondary upregulation due to defective expression of another gene.
12169273 Menin's interaction with glial fibrillary acidic protein and vimentin suggests a role for the intermediate filament network in regulating menin activity.
16365157 Apoptotic neutrophils express vimentin on their surface; these cells may participate in the development of autoantibodies directed against cytoskeletal proteins, a condition frequently reported in several inflammatory diseases.
