Microdevice-integrated immunoassays for Point-of-Care Therapeutic Drug Monitoring

Elena-Diana Bojescu

A significant number of drugs exhibit narrow therapeutic windows and high inter-individual pharmacokinetic variability. In such cases, Therapeutic Drug Monitoring (TDM) is compulsory in order to optimize the efficacy of the drug while avoiding adverse effe ...

Towards Elucidating the Mechanism of Action of Biguanides

Nicolas Peter Goeldel

Diabetes type 2 patients are insensitive to insulin, a condition that leads to reduced glucose uptake by cells and, subsequently, to high concentration of glucose in the blood. For 60 years, biguanides have been one of the few effective therapeutics in red ...

Vitamin B12 deficiency and impaired expression of amnionless during aging

Albano António De Abreu E Presa De Castro E Sousa

Background Physical frailty and loss of mobility in elderly individuals lead to reduced independence, quality of life, and increased mortality. Vitamin B12 deficiency has been linked to several age-related chronic diseases, including in the musculo-skeleta ...

Novel tools to dissect stem cell metabolism at single cell level

Gennady Nikitin

Hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) are responsible for the life-long maintenance of our blood system. Their long-term capacity to both self-renew and differentiate and the ability to efficiently â homeâ to their bone marrow niches when injected in the blood ...

Development of cyclic peptide inhibitors of coagulation factor XII and matrix metalloproteinase 2

Jonas Alfred Karl Wilbs

Peptides represent a promising molecular class for drug development. They combine several strengths of small molecules (e.g. efficient tissue diffusion, low immunogenicity and access to chemical synthesis) and key properties of biologics such as monoclonal ...

Microdevice for Sedimentation-based Separation of Blood Microsamples at the Point of Collection

David Forchelet

Laboratory blood testing plays a central role in current diagnostics and therapeutical decisions. Thus, errors have a direct impact on care quality and cost. The majority of errors occur in the pre-analytical phase, when samples are collected, stored and p ...

Methods of protein corona isolation for magnetic nanoparticles

Heinrich Hofmann, Marc Moniatte, Marijana Mionic Ebersold, Débora Bonvin, Diego Chiappe

Nanoparticles (NPs) in contact with a biological environment get covered by proteins and some are loosely bound and some are tightly bound. The latter form a hard protein corona (HPC) which is known to determine their biological behavior. Therefore, in ord ...

Protein Corona: Impact of Lymph Versus Blood in a Complex In Vitro Environment

Heinrich Hofmann, Duncan Thomas Lindsay Alexander, Marc Moniatte, Marijana Mionic Ebersold, Débora Bonvin, Ulrich Aschauer, Diego Chiappe

In biological environments, the surface of nanoparticles (NPs) are modified by protein corona (PC) that determines their biological behavior. Unfortunately, in vitro tests still give different PC than in vivo tests causing in vitro-in vivo discrepancy; hen ...

Red blood cells ageing markers: a multi-parametric analysis

Gerardo Turcatti, Niels Erik Lion, Benjamin Rappaz, Michel Prudent, Manon Sandra Bardyn

Background. Red blood cells collected in citrate-phosphate-dextrose can be stored for up to 42 days at 4 degrees C in saline-adenine-glucose-mannitol additive solution. During this controlled, but nevertheless artificial, ex vivo ageing, red blood cells ac ...
