Kanishka Parashar #UNIL has uploaded a #postLight. 👀

Here, Kanishka revisits work from @matteoall.bsky.social & team originally posted as a #preprint, highlighted as a #preLight and now published in @jcellsci.bsky.social

Image shows preLights post highlighting a preprint titled 'Paclitaxel compromises nuclear integrity in interphase through SUN2-mediated cytoskeletal coupling'. In a dark-grey box below the title and preprint information you see a summary written by Kanishka Parashar: 'Paclitaxel destabilizes nuclear integrity in interphase by driving microtubule–vimentin aggregates towards the nucleus, leading to SUN2 dependent loss of Lamin A/C loss and enhanced cancer cell vulnerability even in slow proliferating tumors.'. In a blue box below, you see the postLight Kanishka recently added comparing the preprint with the published paper now published in Journal of Cell Science.
