Prenatal auditory experience and its sequelae

Lukas Vogelsang, Marin Vogelsang

Towards the end of the second trimester of gestation, a human fetus is able to register environmental sounds. This in utero auditory experience is characterized by comprising strongly low-pass-filtered versions of sounds from the external world. Here, we p ...

Early life adoption shows rearing environment supersedes transgenerational effects of paternal stress on aggressive temperament in the offspring

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Guillaume Poirier, Olivia Zanoletti, Sonakshi Gupta

Prenatal experience and transgenerational influences are increasingly recognized as critical for defining the socio-emotional system, through the development of social competences and of their underlying neural circuitries. Here, we used an established rat ...

Nutritional Intervention for Developmental Brain Damage: Effects of Lactoferrin Supplementation in Hypocaloric Induced Intrauterine Growth Restriction Rat Pups

Kim Do, Yohan Van de Looij, Camille Larpin

Introduction: Intrauterine Growth Restriction (IUGR) refers to an impaired development of the fetus and hence results in adverse neurodevelopmental and psychiatric consequences later in life. Lactoferrin (Lf) is a glycoprotein present in milk that has alre ...

Chronotype: Implications for Epidemiologic Studies on Chrono-Nutrition and Cardiometabolic Health

Frédéric Bruno Martin Gachon

Chrono-nutrition is an emerging research field in nutritional epidemiology that encompasses 3 dimensions of eating behavior: timing, frequency, and regularity. To date, few studies have investigated how an individual's circadian typology, i.e., one's chron ...

Fingolimod protects against neonatal white matter damage and long-term cognitive deficits caused by hyperoxia

Yohan Van de Looij

Cerebral white matter injury is a leading cause of adverse neurodevelopmental outcome in prematurely born infants involving cognitive deficits in later life. Despite increasing knowledge about the pathophysiology of perinatal brain injury, therapeutic opti ...

Definition and quantification of acute inflammatory white matter injury in the immature brain by MRI/MRS at high magnetic field

Rolf Gruetter, Nicolas Kunz

Background: Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) is a major risk factor for both perinatal and long-term morbidity. Bovine lactoferrin (bLf) is a major milk glycoprotein considered as a pleiotropic functional nutrient. The impact of maternal supplementat ...

General developmental health in the VPA-rat model of autism

Henry Markram, Kamila Markram, Georges Khazen, Mônica Regina Favre

Autism is a neurodevelopmental condition diagnosed by impaired social interaction, abnormal communication and, stereotyped behaviors. While post-mortem and imaging studies have provided good insights into the neurobiological symptomology of autism, animal ...

Prenatally engineered autologous amniotic fluid stem cell-based heart valves in the fetal circulation

Peter Modregger, Marco Stampanoni, Markus Rudin, Chad Brokopp, Marc Farine

Prenatal heart valve interventions aiming at the early and systematic correction of congenital cardiac malformations represent a promising treatment option in maternal-fetal care. However, definite fetal valve replacements require growing implants adaptive ...

The Role of LEKTI in the Fate Determination of Keratinocyte Stem Cells

Alessandro Wataru Amici

SPINK5 (serine protease inhibitor Kazal-type 5) encodes the proteinase inhibitor LEKTI (lympho-epithelial Kazal-type related inhibitor). In skin, LEKTI expression is restricted to the stratum granulosum of the epidermis and the inner root sheath of hair fo ...

The orphan nuclear receptor small heterodimer partner mediates male infertility induced by diethylstilbestrol in mice

Johan Auwerx, Kristina Schoonjans

Studies in rodents have shown that male sexual function can be disrupted by fetal or neonatal administration of compounds that alter endocrine homeostasis, such as the synthetic nonsteroidal estrogen diethylstilbestrol (DES). Although the molecular basis f ...

Long-term doxycycline-regulated secretion of erythropoietin by encapsulated myoblasts

Patrick Aebischer, Bernard Schneider, Nicole Déglon

We developed an ex vivo gene therapy approach for the regulated delivery of therapeutic proteins based on the implantation of encapsulated, genetically engineered C(2)C(12) myoblasts. We investigated doxycycline-based regulation of gene expression to modul ...
