Prominent astrocytic alpha-synuclein pathology with unique post-translational modification signatures unveiled across Lewy body disorders

Hilal Lashuel, Melek Firat Altay

Alpha-synuclein (aSyn) is a pre-synaptic monomeric protein that can form aggregates in neurons in Parkinson's disease (PD), Parkinson's disease with dementia (PDD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), and in oligodendrocytes in multiple system atrophy (MSA ...

The promise of multi-omics approaches to discover biological alterations with clinical relevance in Alzheimer's disease

Loïc Dayon

Beyond the core features of Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology, i.e. amyloid pathology, tau-related neurodegeneration and microglia response, multiple other molecular alterations and pathway dysregulations have been observed in AD. Their inter-individual v ...

3D reconstruction of curvilinear structures with stereo matching deep convolutional neural networks

Pascal Fua, Cécile Hébert, Emad Oveisi, Anastasiia Mishchuk, Okan Altingövde, Gulnaz Ganeeva

Curvilinear structures frequently appear in microscopy imaging as the object of interest. Crystallographic defects, i.e dislocations, are one of the curvilinear structures that have been repeatedly investigated under transmission electron microscopy (TEM) ...

Repair or Degrade: the Thermodynamic Dilemma of Cellular Protein Quality-Control

Paolo De Los Rios, Bruno Claude Daniel Fauvet, Satyam Tiwari, Mathieu Rebeaud

Life is a non-equilibrium phenomenon. Owing to their high free energy content, the macromolecules of life tend to spontaneously react with ambient oxygen and water and turn into more stable inorganic molecules. A similar thermodynamic picture applies to th ...

Infrared and 2-Dimensional Correlation Spectroscopy Study of the Effect of CH3NH3PbI3 and CH3NH3SnI3 Photovoltaic Perovskites on Eukaryotic Cells

László Forró, Endre Horvath, Ryma Iness Benmessaoud

We studied the effect of the exposure of human A549 and SH-SY5Y cell lines to aqueous solutions of organic/inorganic halide perovskites CH3NH3PbI3 (MAPbI3) and CH3NH3SnI3 (MASnI3) at the molecular level by using Fourier transform infrared microspectroscopy ...

Cytosolic delivery and characterization of monobodies interfering with SH2 domain-phosphotyrosine interactions

Nadine Eliane Schmit

Targeted cancer therapy is a very promising concept; however, small molecule inhibitors only exist for a limited number of oncoproteins and resistance development limits their clinical use. Different engineered non-antibody scaffolds are being explored to ...

Zinc blende-wurtzite polytypism in nanocrystalline ZnO films

Christophe Ballif, Cécile Hébert, Aïcha Hessler-Wyser, Duncan Thomas Lindsay Alexander, Sylvain Nicolay, Arthur Brian Aebersold, Lorenzo Fanni

ZnO is commonly observed and assumed to crystallize fully in a wurtzite structure. Indeed, While polytypism between a wurtzite and a zinc blende phase is often seen in some II-VI compounds, it has only rarely been observed in ZnO. Here, by means of automat ...
