Rupture mechanics of vimentin intermediate filament tetramers

Together with the globular proteins microtubules and microfilaments, intermediate filaments are one of the three major components of the cytoskeleton in eukaryotic cells. It consists of a dimeric coiled-coil building block, assembled in a very precise, hierarchical fashion into tetramers, forming filaments with characteristic dimensions on the order of several micrometers. Here we focus on the ...

Rupture of left ventricle leading to pseudo-aneurysm formation.

A 55-year-old Asian man was admitted with a 24-h history of central crushing chest pain radiating to his left arm worse on the day of admission. He was known to have peripheral vascular disease, diabetes, previous right below knee amputation and hyperlipidaemia; he was also a long-term smoker. On examination he was haemodynamically stable with no evidence of cardiac failure or murmurs. His rest...
