• Lamin A/C is the major architectural protein of cell nucleus in charge of the nuclear mechanosensing. By integrating extracellular mechanical and biochemical signals, lamin A/C regulates multiple intracellular events including mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) fate determination. Herein, we review the recent findings about the effects and mechanisms of lamin A/C in governing MSC lineage commitment, with a special focus on osteogenesis and adipogenesis. Better understanding of MSC differentiation regulated by lamin A/C could provide insights into pathogenesis of age-related osteoporosis.
