Activities, Housing Situation and Other Factors Influencing Psychological Strain Experienced During the First COVID-19 Lockdown in Switzerland

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer, Livia Bianca Fritz, Anna Pagani, Ralph Hansmann, Garance Clément

Background: The Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) crisis and the corresponding first nationwide lockdown from mid-March to 10 May 2020 engendered considerable psychological strain among people in Switzerland. This study analyzes determinants of changes i ...

Acute RyR1 Ca2+ leak enhances NADH-linked mitochondrial respiratory capacity

Johan Auwerx, Tanes Imamura de Lima

Sustained ryanodine receptor (RyR) Ca2+ leak is associated with pathological conditions such as heart failure or skeletal muscle weakness. We report that a single session of sprint interval training (SIT), but not of moderate intensity continuous training ...

The Hippo pathway controls myofibril assembly and muscle fiber growth by regulating sarcomeric gene expression

Bart Deplancke, Daniel Alpern, Julie Marie Russeil

Skeletal muscles are composed of gigantic cells called muscle fibers, packed with force-producing myofibrils. During development, the size of individual muscle fibers must dramatically enlarge to match with skeletal growth. How muscle growth is coordinated ...

Transient vitamin B5 starving improves mammalian cell homeostasis and protein production

Nicolas Mermod

Maintaining a metabolic steady state is essential for an organism's fitness and survival when confronted with environmental stress, and metabolic imbalance can be reversed by exposing the organism to fasting. Here, we attempted to apply this physiological ...

Wearable multifunctional sweat-sensing system for efficient healthcare monitoring

Giovanni De Micheli, Sandro Carrara, Irene Taurino, Francesca Criscuolo, Nicolò Oliva, Mandresy Ivan Ny Hanitra, Simone Aiassa

Despite the huge expansion in recent years of sweat sensing and wearable technologies, several challenges are still open, including poor sample collection, separate sampling and analysis, low multi-sensing capabilities and materials toxicity. In this work, ...

Eosinophils regulate adipose tissue inflammation and sustain physical and immunological fitness in old age

Johan Auwerx, Norman Lionel Moullan

Adipose tissue eosinophils (ATEs) are important in the control of obesity-associated inflammation and metabolic disease. However, the way in which ageing impacts the regulatory role of ATEs remains unknown. Here, we show that ATEs undergo major age-related ...

Disturbed mitochondrial dynamics in CD8(+)TILs reinforce T cell exhaustion

Li Tang, George Coukos, Nicola Vannini, Marcela Rincón-Restrepo, Min Gao

Ho and colleagues report that mitochondrial dysfunction and impaired mitophagy triggered by the tumor microenvironment lead to subsequent epigenetic changes and cause permanent T cell exhaustion and dysfunction. The metabolic challenges present in tumors a ...

Wearable multi-electrode platform for ion sensing

Francesca Criscuolo

With the growth of personalized medicine and e-Health, there has been an increasing interest in the development of accurate sensing systems able to support this healthcare revolution for both in- and off-hospital monitoring. Remote biosensing devices can d ...

Multidimensional Measures of Physical Activity and Their Association with Gross Motor Capacity in Children and Adolescents with Cerebral Palsy

Anisoara Ionescu, Lena Carcreff

The current lack of adapted performance metrics leads clinicians to focus on what children with cerebral palsy (CP) do in a clinical setting, despite the ongoing debate on whether capacity (what they do at best) adequately reflects performance (what they d ...

Embedding Mobile Health Technology into the Nurses' Health Study 3 to Study Behavioral Risk Factors for Cancer

Christine Choirat

Background: Physical activity and sleep are behavioral risk factors for cancer that may be influenced by environmental exposures, including built and natural environments. However, many studies in this area are limited by residence-based exposure assessmen ...
