Auditing Radicalization Pathways on YouTube

Non-profits, as well as the media, have hypothesized the existence of a radicalization pipeline on YouTube, claiming that users systematically progress towards more extreme content on the platform. Yet, there is to date no substantial quantitative evidence ...

Towards artificial mechanosensing

Aleksandra Radenovic, Sanjin Marion

Carbon nanotubes with single-digit diameter embedded in a solid artificial membrane show pressure-sensitive ionic conductance that is similar to the mechanically activated currents of biological ion channels. ...

Intracellular recording of cardiomyocyte action potentials with nanopatterned volcano-shaped microelectrodes

Benoît Xavier Emmanuel Desbiolles

Micro-nanotechnology based multielectrode arrays have led to remarkable progress in the field of transmembrane voltage recordings of excitable cells. However, electrode geometries alone have failed to produce a cell-electrode interface that is sufficiently ...

Structure of a D2 dopamine receptor-G-protein complex in a lipid membrane

Mahdi Hijazi, Patrick Daniel Barth

The D2 dopamine receptor (DRD2) is a therapeutic target for Parkinson's disease(1)and antipsychotic drugs(2). DRD2 is activated by the endogenous neurotransmitter dopamine and synthetic agonist drugs such as bromocriptine(3), leading to stimulation of G(i) ...

Nicotine increases sleep spindle activity

Christian O'Reilly

Studies have shown that both nicotine and sleep spindles are associated with enhanced memorisation. Further, a few recent studies have shown how cholinergic input through nicotinic and muscarinic receptors can trigger or modulate sleep processes in general ...

Cellular, Synaptic and Network Effects of Acetylcholine in the Neocortex

Henry Markram, Srikanth Ramaswamy, Daniel Keller, Cristina Colangelo, Polina Shichkova

The neocortex is densely innervated by basal forebrain (BF) cholinergic neurons. Long-range axons of cholinergic neurons regulate higher-order cognitive function and dysfunction in the neocortex by releasing acetylcholine (ACh). ACh release dynamically rec ...

Image-Based Marker-Free Screening of GABA(A) Agonists, Antagonists, and Modulators

Gerardo Turcatti, Pierre Marquet, Damiano Banfi, Pascal Jourdain, Benjamin Rappaz, Fabien Kuttler

The ionotropic GABA(A) receptors represent the main target for different groups of widely used drugs having hypnotic and anxiolytic effects. So far, most approaches used to assess GABA activity involve invasive low -throughput electrophysiological techniqu ...

Associations between genetic variations and global motion perception

Michael Herzog

The cholinergic system is known to strongly modulate perceptual and cognitive processes, and the alpha7 subunit of the cholinergic nicotinic receptor (CHRNA7) is broadly expressed within the visual system. Here, we assessed whether genetic variations of CH ...

A Kinetic Map of the Homomeric Voltage-Gated Potassium Channel (Kv) Family

Henry Markram, Rajnish Ranjan, Michela Marani, Emmanuelle Logette, Valérie Buchillier, Mirjia Herzog, Valérie Tâche, Enrico Scantamburlo

The voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels, encoded by 40 genes, repolarize all electrically excitable cells, including plant, cardiac, and neuronal cells. Although these genes were fully sequenced decades ago, a comprehensive kinetic characterization of al ...
