Delight to see that our work on vimentin intermediate filament dynamics is part of JCB’s Special Collection: Intermediate Filaments 2025!!! Check it out: rupress.org/jcb/collecti... @jcb.org @nucdb.bsky.social @nu-bsa.bsky.social @hhmijanelia.bsky.social

🦠 New research led by @aaandmoore.bsky.social‬ @buvansr.bsky.social‬ @vgelfand.bsky.social‬ shows vimentin filaments that provide support & shape to cells are more independent & dynamic than previously thought, providing new insight into their role in cellular processes.

Scientists in the Gelfand Lab (@vgelfand.bsky.social) have uncovered new details about the inner workings of some of the smallest filament cellular structures, according to a study published in the Journal of Cell Biology. @buvansr.bsky.social

Happy to officially introduce FilaBuster - a strategy for rapid, light-mediated intermediate filament disassembly. Compatible with multiple IF types, modular in design, and precise enough to induce localized filament disassembly in live cells.

Excited to see our work on #vimentin dynamics and organization sparking interest among researchers! Delighted to have it featured in @jcb.org with an insightful commentary by Prof. Stepen Klumpp & Komal Bhattacharyya. Grateful for their perspectives on our research!

Spotlight from Bhattacharyya and Klumpp: Combining two powerful imaging techniques, Renganathan et al. (rupress.org/jcb/article/...) provide unprecedented detail of the intermediate filament network in cells. rupress.org/jcb/article/...

Excited to share our work @jcb.org !!! We believe this is a key piece in the #vimentin & #IntermediateFilament field, highlighting its dynamic nature. This opens the door for exploring crosstalk with other cytoskeletal components!

Renganathan, Moor, @vgelfand.bsky.social et al. use single-particle tracking to show that #vimentin intermediate filaments display active movement throughout the cell, with individual filaments within a bundle moving independently rupress.org/jcb/article/...

Challenging the view on #vimentin! our latest work shows VIF is an active, dynamic filament loosely held together
