Astrocyte-targeting RNA interference against mutated superoxide dismutase 1 induces motoneuron plasticity and protects fast-fatigable motor units in a mouse model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

Patrick Aebischer, Bernard Schneider, Nathalie Marie Géraldine Bernard, Cylia Cloé Rochat

In amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) caused by SOD1 gene mutations, both cell-autonomous and noncell-autonomous mechanisms lead to the selective degeneration of motoneurons (MN). Here, we evaluate the therapeutic potential of gene therapy targeting mutat ...

Using Animal Motion Capture to Learn Neural Representations

Semih Günel

Understanding behavior from neural activity is a fundamental goal in neuroscience. It has practical applications in building robust brain-machine interfaces, human-computer interaction, and assisting patients with neurological disabilities. Despite the eve ...

Follicular regulatory helper T cells control the response of regulatory B cells to a high-cholesterol diet

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos

Aims B cell functions in the process of atherogenesis have been investigated but several aspects remain to be clarified. ...

Gene-by-environment modulation of lifespan and weight gain in the murine BXD family

Johan Auwerx, Maroun Bou Sleiman, Evan Graehl Williams, Pooja Jha

How lifespan and body weight vary as a function of diet and genetic differences is not well understood. Here we quantify the impact of differences in diet on lifespan in a genetically diverse family of female mice, split into matched isogenic cohorts fed a ...

Parkinson mice show functional and molecular changes in the gut long before motoric disease onset

Hilal Lashuel, Yang Liu

Background: There is increasing evidence that Parkinson's disease (PD) might start in the gut, thus involving and compromising also the enteric nervous system (ENS). At the clinical onset of the disease the majority of dopaminergic neurons in the midbrain ...

LiftPose3D, a deep learning-based approach for transforming two-dimensional to three-dimensional poses in laboratory animals

Pascal Fua, Pavan P Ramdya, Adám Gosztolai, Victor Lobato Rios, Helge Jochen Rhodin, Semih Günel, Daniel Eduardo Morales Garza, Marco Pietro Abrate

LiftPose3D infers three-dimensional poses from two-dimensional data or from limited three-dimensional data. The approach is illustrated for videos of behaving Drosophila, mice, rats and macaques. ...

Towards a wearable sensor for spectrally-resolved personal light monitoring

Marilyne Andersen, Forrest Simon Webler, Giorgia Chinazzo

Given the large impact that the spectrum and intensity of light can have on people's health and well-being, it is of fundamental importance to understand the properties of light received under normal living conditions. Historically, as research into the bi ...

A new rat model of creatine transporter deficiency reveals behavioral disorder and altered brain metabolism

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Cristina Ramona Cudalbu, Jocelin Grosse, Dunja Simicic

Creatine is an organic compound used as fast phosphate energy buffer to recycle ATP, important in tissues with high energy demand such as muscle or brain. Creatine is taken from the diet or endogenously synthetized by the enzymes AGAT and GAMT, and specifi ...

Competitive Dehydrogenation and Backbone Fragmentation of Superhydrogenated PAHs: A Laboratory Study

Eduardo Carrascosa Casado, Robert Richter

Superhydrogenated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have been suggested to catalyze the formation of H-2 in certain regions of space, but it remains unclear under which circumstances this mechanism is viable given the reduced carbon backbone stabilit ...

Mouse Systems Genetics as a Prelude to Precision Medicine

Johan Auwerx, Hao Li

Mouse models have been instrumental in understanding human disease biology and proposing possible new treatments. The precise control of the environment and genetic composition of mice allows more rigorous observations, but limits the generalizability and ...
