Cells of the cellular immune and hemopoietic system of the mouse lack lamins A/C: distinction <i>Versus</i> other somatic cells

Abstract excerpt

Almost all somatic cells in adult murine tissues express all three nuclear lamins (A, B, C). Here we demonstrate that cells of the hemopoietic system of the adult mouse are an exception in that they express only lamin B. Thus T and B lymphocytes as well as granulocytes and monocytic cells directly isolated from spleen, thymus, blood or bone marrow do not express lamin A/C but only lamin B. In agreement with this...
