The gene encoding lamin A/C is amplified in some clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) samples. Our data showed that depletion of the tumor suppressor PBRM1 can upregulate lamin A/C levels, and lamin A/C could interact with PBRM1. However, the role of lamin A/C in ccRCC is not yet fully understood. Our functional assays showed that although the proliferation ability was slightly impaired after depletion, the migration and invasion of ccRCC cells were significantly inhibited. This suppression was accompanied by a reduction in MMP2, MMP9, AKT/p-AKT, and Wnt/β-catenin protein levels. Our data therefore suggest that lamin A/C, as an interaction partner of the tumor suppressor PBRM1, plays a crucial role in tumor invasion and metastasis in ccRCC.

Cellular mechanotransduction is a complex physiological process that integrates alterations in the external environment with cellular behaviours. In recent years, the role of the nucleus in mechanotransduction has gathered increased attention. Our research investigated the involvement of lamin A/C, a component of the nuclear envelope, in the mechanotransduction of macrophages under compressive force.

Introduction: Inherited lipodystrophies are a group of rare diseases defined by severe reduction in adipose tissue mass and classified as generalized or partial. We report a non-familial (sporadic) case of partial lipodystrophy caused by a novel genetic mechanism involving closely linked pathogenic variants in the gene.
Methods: A female adult with partial lipodystrophy and her parents were evaluated for gene variants across the exome under different mendelian inheritance models (autosomal dominant, recessive, compound heterozygous, and X-linked) to find pathogenic variants.

Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS) is a rare genetic condition characterized by features of accelerated aging, and individuals with HGPS seldom live beyond their mid-teens. The syndrome is commonly caused by a point mutation in the LMNA gene which codes for lamin A and its splice variant lamin C, components of the nuclear lamina. The mutation causing HGPS leads to production of a truncated, farnesylated form of lamin A referred to as "progerin.

Article Synopsis
- Dynamic disassembly and reconstruction of the nuclear lamina are crucial for cell division, with CDK1 phosphorylation playing a key role in this process.
- Mass spectrometry identified specific phosphorylation sites on Lamin A/C during mitosis, with mutations altering phosphorylation status affecting lamina structure and function.
- Disruption of Lamin A phosphorylation led to nuclear abnormalities, highlighting its importance for nuclear envelope dynamics and maintaining genomic stability during the cell cycle.

The term limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) refers to a variety of genetic neuromuscular disorders that typically affect the proximal muscles surrounding the hip and shoulder girdles. Despite having multiple genetic subtypes, these share similar clinical and imaging findings. Autosomal dominant forms are grouped under type 1, and autosomal recessive forms are grouped under type 2.
