Cis-regulatory effect of HPV integration is constrained by host chromatin architecture in cervical cancers

Human papillomavirus (HPV) infections are the primary drivers of cervical cancers, and often HPV DNA gets integrated into the host genome. Although the oncogenic impact of HPV encoded genes is relatively well known, the cis-regulatory effect of integrated ...

Smartphone-Based Visual Inspection with Acetic Acid: An Innovative Tool to Improve Cervical Cancer Screening in Low-Resource Setting

Roser Vinals Terres

Visual inspection with acetic acid (VIA) is recommended by theWorld Health Organization for primary cervical cancer screening or triage of human papillomavirus-positive women living in low-resource settings. Nonetheless, traditional VIA with the naked-eye ...

Using Dynamic Features for Automatic Cervical Precancer Detection

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Mohammad Saeed Rad, Roser Vinals Terres

Cervical cancer remains a major public health concern in developing countries due to financial and human resource constraints. Visual inspection with acetic acid (VIA) of the cervix was widely promoted and routinely used as a low-cost primary screening tes ...

Home-based HPV self-sampling assisted by a cloud-based electronic data system: Lessons learnt from a pilot community cervical cancer screening campaign in rural Ethiopia

Primary HPV testing and triage of HPV-positive women is an effective cervical cancer screening strategy. Such a multi-visit screening algorithm is also promising for community-based screening in resource-poor communities, provided a robust tracking system ...

Myeloid Cells Orchestrate Systemic Immunosuppression, Impairing the Efficacy of Immunotherapy against HPV+ Cancers

Melody Swartz, Nadine Fournier, Douglas Hanahan, Stephan Wullschleger, Gabriele Galliverti, Mélanie Louise Tichet

Cancers induced by human papillomaviruses (HPV) should be responsive to immunotherapy by virtue of expressing the immunogenic oncoproteins E6/E7. However, advanced forms of cervical cancer, driven by HPV, are poorly responsive to immune response-enhancing ...

Do Lewy bodies contain alpha-synuclein fibrils? and Does it matter? A brief history and critical analysis of recent reports

Hilal Lashuel

Several lines of evidence from neuropathological studies, human genetics, in vitro aggregation studies and cellular and animal models support the hypothesis that aSyn plays a central role in the formation of Lewy pathologies. These are cytoplasmic proteina ...

Carboplatin/paclitaxel, E7-vaccination and intravaginal CpG as tri-therapy towards efficient regression of genital HPV16 tumors

Douglas Hanahan, Gabriele Galliverti

High-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) are responsible for genital and oral cancers associated with the expression of the E6/E7 HPV oncogenes. Therapeutic vaccines targeting those oncogenes can only partially control tumor progression, highlighting the neces ...

Advancing immunotherapy for HPV-related cancers: Improving therapeutic vaccination approaches and understanding the immunosuppressive role of myeloid cells

Gabriele Galliverti

Human Papilloma Viruses (HPVs) are the most common sexually transmitted agents worldwide, and chronic infection with oncogenic HPVs can lead to the development of lesions in the cervix, the vulva, and the head and neck region. In some patients, these lesio ...

Compact lensless digital holography

Manon Rostykus

Microscopy is of high interest for biology since it allows imaging features that are too small to be seen with naked eyes. However, cells are mostly transparent to visible and infrared light which makes it difficult to see with a traditional microscope. To ...

Arginine-Based Biodegradable Ether–Ester Polymers with Low Cytotoxicity as Potential Gene Carriers

Jutta Christine Wandrey, Lucia Baldi Unser, Sagar Shashidhar Manoli, Nino Zavradashvili, Tamar Memanishvili

The success of gene therapy depends on safe and effective gene carriers. Despite being widely used, synthetic vectors based on poly(ethylenimine) (PEI), poly(l-lysine) (PLL), or poly(l-arginine) (poly-Arg) are not yet fully satisfactory. Thus, both improve ...

Hedgehog pathway regulators influence cervical cancer cell proliferation, survival and migration

Peter Martin Beard, Ivana Samarzija

Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is considered to be a primary hit that causes cervical cancer. However, infection with this agent, although needed, is not sufficient for a cancer to develop. Additional cellular changes are required to complement the a ...

Resolution and Complex Deconvolution in Holographic Microscopy

Yann Jérôme Michel Pascal Cotte

Interest in high resolution imaging techniques has recently multiplied due to their importance in bio-medical research. Quantitative phase measurements by holographic microscopy is an extraordinary tool to gain new understanding of transparent biological s ...

Luminescent lanthanide bimetallic triple-stranded helicates as potential cellular imaging probes

Jean-Claude Bünzli, Caroline Vandevyver, Steve Comby, Anne-Sophie Chauvin

Water-soluble triple-stranded [Ln2(L)3] helicates have been successfully tested as imaging probes in human cervical adenocarcinoma cells (HeLa), the complex being not toxic and clearly staining their cytoplasm in a concentrationdependent manner. ...
