Vimentin Intermediate Filament Rings Deform the Nucleus During the First Steps of Adhesion

During cell spreading, cells undergo many changes to their architecture and their mechanical properties. Vimentin, as an integral part of the cell architecture, and its mechanical stability must adapt to the new state of the cell. This study focuses on the structures formed by vimentin during the fi...
