Intermediate Filaments as Organizers of Cellular Space: How They Affect Mitochondrial Structure and Function

Intermediate Filaments as Organizers of Cellular Space: How They Affect Mitochondrial Structure and Function

Intermediate filaments together with actin filaments and microtubules form the cytoskeleton, which is a complex and highly dynamic 3D network. Intermediate filaments are the major mechanical stress protectors but also affect cell growth, differentiation, signal transduction, and migration. Using int...
