Vimentin,also named as VIM,belongs to the intermediate filament family. Vimentin is class-III intermediate filaments found in various non-epithelial cells,especially mesenchymal cells. Vimentin is important for stabilizing the architecture of the cytoplasm. Monocyte-derived macrophages secrete vimentin into the extracellular space in vitro. Secretion of vimentin was enhanced by the proinflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFA; 191160) and inhibited by the antiinflammatory cytokine IL10 (124092),suggesting that vimentin is involved in the immune response. Vimentin has specialized functions that contribute to specific dynamic cellular processes. As a phosphoprotein,55-60 kDa of vimentin proteins can be observed due to the different phosphorylation level.
Vimentins are class-III intermediate filaments found in various non-epithelial cells, especially mesenchymal cells. Vimentin is attached to the nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum, and mitochondria, either laterally or terminally.Involved with LARP6 in the stabilization of type I collagen mRNAs for CO1A1 and CO1A2.
