Genes implicated in translation control have been associated with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). However, some important genetic causes of autism, including the 16p11.2 microdeletion, bear no obvious connection to translation. Here, we use proteomics, g ...

Two fundamental properties of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are their ability to self-renew and differentiate into all somatic cell types. Maintenance of their identity faces major challenges when transitioning through mitosis, as most DNA-binding proteins a ...

The grading of fibrosis in myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) is an important component of disease classification, prognostication and monitoring. However, current fibrosis grading systems are only semi-quantitative and fail to fully capture sample heterog ...

Adipose tissue is a key metabolic and highly-dynamic organ whose dysregulation may cause clinical conditions of concern such as obesity and lipodystrophy. Its function varies based on the anatomy, in fact, visceral adipose tissue expansion carries a greate ...

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the deadliest cancers worldwide. Despite extensive research in the field, new therapies targeting CRC are in urgent need. CRC is a highly heterogeneous disease with high levels of intra- and inter-patient heterogeneity. Ca ...

The organisation of molecules into dynamic cells, and collaboration of many of those cells over a billion years led to the evolution of human life. During the last century, biologists then began to unravel the marvels of cellular organisation with ever inc ...

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is the most common muscular dystrophy, and despite advances in genetic and pharmacological disease-modifying treatments, its management remains a major challenge. Mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to DMD, yet the mecha ...

Two heterobimetallic mu-dppm bridged Fe,Ru complexes, [(eta(6)-Arene)RuCl2(mu-dppm)Fe(CO)I(eta(5)-C5H5)] (Ar - C6H6 (1) and p-cymene (2), dppm-1,1-bis(diphenylphosphino)methane) were obtained in a facile reaction between [Fe(eta(5)-C5H5)I(CO)(kappa(1)-dppm ...

Asymmetric cell division is crucial for embryonic development and stem cell lineages. In the one-cell C. elegans embryo, a contractile cortical actomyosin network contributes to asymmetric division by segregating PAR proteins to discrete cortical domains. ...

In a typical high-throughput drug screening (HTS) process, up to millions of chemical compounds are applied to cells cultured in well plates, aiming to find molecules that exhibit a robust dose-response, as evidenced for example by a fluorescence signal. I ...

In order to adjust to changes in the environment, cells can communicate via signalling cascades. A common pathway for intercellular communication is the G-protein-coupled- receptor (GPCR) signal transduction cascade which is triggered by a (chemical or phy ...

The Caenorhabditis elegans embryo is a widely used model for the functional analysis of dynamic cellular processes, such as chromosome segregation, cytokinesis or lineage analysis. However, the conventional embryo preparation method that relies on manually ...

Several naturally occurring vertebrate transposable elements have been genetically modified to enable the transposition of recombinant genes in mammalian cells. We compared three transposonspiggyBac, Tol2, and Sleeping Beautyfor their ability to generate c ...

Project I: Chd7 Deficiency does not affect N1-driven T-ALL Induction and Maintenance nor impair Hematopoiesis Notch1 has been shown to be a key driver in pediatric T-cell acute lymphobastic leukemia (T-ALL). Previous work in the lab identified the chromati ...

Notch signalling represents a form of cell-to-cell communication that plays a pivotal role for cellular organisation during embryonic and postnatal development, as well as in the homeostasis of adult organs and tissues. Malfunction of this signalling pathw ...
