A systematic investigation on the bactericidal transient species generated by photo-sensitization of natural organic matter (NOM) during solar and photo Fenton disinfection of surface waters

César Pulgarin, Stefanos Giannakis, Mona Kohantorabi, Ling Feng

In this work, the role of dissolved oxygen in the solar and the photo-Fenton-mediated E. coli inactivation process was put under scrutiny. The effect of transient species that were produced in the presence of various natural organic matter isolates (NOM), ...

Disrupting astrocyte-neuron lactate transfer persistently reduces conditioned responses to cocaine

Pierre Magistretti, Jean-Luc Martin, Benjamin Boutrel, Benjamin Boury-Jamot, Anthony Carrard

A central problem in the treatment of drug addiction is the high risk of relapse often precipitated by drug-associated cues. The transfer of glycogen-derived lactate from astrocytes to neurons is required for long-term memory. Whereas blockade of drug memo ...

Dampened neural activity and abolition of epileptic-like activity in cortical slices by active ingredients of spices

Henry Markram, Julie Meystre, Maurizio Ferdinando Pezzoli, Johannes Le Coutre, Susana Camacho Romero, Sara Lillian Gonzalez Andino

Active ingredients of spices (AIS) modulate neural response in the peripheral nervous system, mainly through interaction with TRP channel/receptors. The present study explores how different AIS modulate neural response in layer 5 pyramidal neurons of S1 ne ...

Muscle Spindle Feedback Directs Locomotor Recovery and Circuit Reorganization after Spinal Cord Injury

Grégoire Courtine, Isabel Laura Vollenweider

Spinal cord injuries alter motor function by disconnecting neural circuits above and below the lesion, rendering sensory inputs a primary source of direct external drive to neuronal networks caudal to the injury. Here, we studied mice lacking functional mu ...

Fast and robust estimation of jointly sparse channels

Martin Vetterli, Ali Hormati, Yann Barbotin

A device and method for estimating multipath jointly sparse channels. The method comprises receiving a number K of signal components by a number P of receiving antennas, where P≧2. The method further comprises estimating the sparsity condition of the multi ...

Ca2+ channels and transmitter release at the active zone

Ralf Schneggenburger, Olexiy Kochubey, Yunyun Han

Ca2+-dependent transmitter release is the most important signaling mechanism for fast information transfer between neurons. Transmitter release takes places at highly specialized active zones with sub-micrometer dimension, which contain the molecular machi ...

Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Genetic Animal Models of Parkinson's Disease

Elpida Tsika, Darren Moore, Alzbeta Trancikova

Mitochondria are highly dynamic, multifunctional organelles. Aside from their major role in energy metabolism, they are also crucial for many cellular processes including neurotransmission, synaptic maintenance, calcium homeostasis, cell death, and neurona ...

Heterogeneity of AMPA receptor trafficking and molecular interactions revealed by superresolution analysis of live cell imaging

Suliana Manley, Christian Sieben

Simultaneous tracking of many thousands of individual particles in live cells is possible now with the advent of high-density superresolution imaging methods. We present an approach to extract local biophysical properties of cell-particle interaction from ...

Secreted semaphorin 5A suppressed pancreatic tumour burden but increased metastasis and endothelial cell proliferation

Anguraj Sadanandam, Stephan Wullschleger

BACKGROUND: Our earlier reports demonstrated that membrane-bound semaphorin 5A (SEMA5A) is expressed in aggressive pancreatic cancer cells and tumours, and promotes tumour growth and metastasis. In this study, we examine whether (1) pancreatic cancer cells ...

Functional electric field changes in photoactivated proteins revealed by ultrafast Stark spectroscopy of the Trp residues

Majed Chergui, Frank van Mourik, Andrea Cannizzo, Erwin Portuondo Campa, Stefan Haacke

Ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy of wild-type bacteriorhodopsin (WT bR) and 2 tryptophan mutants (W86F and W182F) is performed with visible light excitation (pump) and UV probe. The aim is to investigate the photoinduced change in the charge dis ...

NR2E3 Mutations in Enhanced S-Cone Sensitivity Syndrome (ESCS), Goldmann-Favre Syndrome (GFS), Clumped Pigmentary Retinal Degeneration (CPRD), and Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP)

Pascal Escher

NR2E3, also called photoreceptor-specific nuclear receptor (PNR), is a transcription factor of the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily whose expression is uniquely restricted to photoreceptors. There, its physiological activity is essential for proper rod ...

Role and mechanism of transient receptor potential (TRP) channels in gustatory and chemesthetic sensations associated with dietary molecules

Céline Riera

"Chemosensory perception", the perception of food chemicals, relies on the complex cooperation of gustatory, olfactory and somatosensory detection systems. In the oral cavity, the taste buds and the lingual branch of the trigeminal nerve are the organs tha ...

Insights into excited-state and isomerization dynamics of bacteriorhodopsin from ultrafast transient UV absorption

Majed Chergui, Frank van Mourik, Selma Schenkl

A visible-pump/UV-probe transient absorption is used to characterize the ultrafast dynamics of bacteriorhodopsin with 80-fs time resoln. We identify three spectral components in the 265- to 310-nm region, related to the all-trans retinal, tryptophan (Trp)- ...

Calcium dynamics and intercellular communication in arterial smooth muscle cells

Mathieu Lamboley

This thesis is a contribution to the field of cellular communication in arteries during vasomotion, i.e. rhythmic and spontaneous diameter oscillations of arteries. Investigating how individual smooth muscle cells (SMCs) and endothelial cells (ECs) calcium ...
