Characterisation of conditional alleles of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe cytokinesis regulator byr4

Regulation of cytokinesis is essential for the cell during its division cycle. Failure to do so can lead to aneuploidy, which can be fatal and lead to senescence or cancer. A useful model organism for studying cytokinesis in eukaryotes is Schizosaccharomyc ...

Inhibition of CERS1 in skeletal muscle exacerbates age-related muscle dysfunction

Olivier Burri, Johan Auwerx, Giacomo Vincenzo Giorgio Von Alvensleben, Pirkka-Pekka Untamo Laurila, Martin Rainer Wohlwend, Xiaoxu Li, Ludger Jan Elzuë Goeminne, Amélia Lalou, Tanes Imamura de Lima, Barbara Moreira Crisol, Renata Mangione

Age-related muscle wasting and dysfunction render the elderly population vulnerable and incapacitated, while underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, we implicate the CERS1 enzyme of the de novo sphingolipid synthesis pathway in the pathogenesis ...

Engineered substrates incapable of induction of chondrogenic differentiation compared to the chondrocyte imprinted substrates

Philippe Renaud, Shahin Bonakdar, Leila Montazeri, Zahrasadat Ghazali

It is well established that surface topography can affect cell functions. However, finding a reproducible and reliable method for regulating stem cell behavior is still under investigation. It has been shown that cell imprinted substrates contain micro- an ...

SARS-CoV-2 hijacks a cell damage response, which induces transcription of a more efficient Spike S-acyltransferase

Béatrice Kunz, Didier Trono, Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg, Laurence Gouzi Abrami, Audrey Geneviève Chuat, Francisco De Magalhães Sarmento R De Mesquita, Lucie Josepha Marie Bracq, Joana Carlevaro Fita, Nattawadee Panyain

SARS-CoV-2 infection requires Spike protein-mediated fusion between the viral and cellular membranes. The fusogenic activity of Spike depends on its post-translational lipid modification by host S-acyltransferases, predominantly ZDHHC20. Previous observati ...

Stable parameterization of continuous and piecewise-linear functions

Michaël Unser, Joaquim Gonçalves Garcia Barreto Campos, Alexis Marie Frederic Goujon

Rectified-linear-unit (ReLU) neural networks, which play a prominent role in deep learning, generate continuous and piecewise-linear (CPWL) functions. While they provide a powerful parametric representation, the mapping between the parameter and function s ...

Inhibiting de novo ceramide synthesis restores mitochondrial and protein homeostasis in muscle aging

Johan Auwerx, Hao Li, Mario Romani, Dohyun Park, Pirkka-Pekka Untamo Laurila, Changmyung Oh, Martin Rainer Wohlwend, Jean-David Horacio Morel, Xiaoxu Li, Ludger Jan Elzuë Goeminne, Tanes Imamura de Lima, Sandra Rodriguez Lopez, Barbara Moreira Crisol

Disruption of mitochondrial function and protein homeostasis plays a central role in aging. However, how these processes interact and what governs their failure in aging remain poorly understood. Here, we showed that cer- amide biosynthesis controls the de ...

Sequential and directional insulation by conserved CTCF sites underlies the Hox timer in stembryos

Denis Duboule, Célia Corinne Renée Bochaton, Lucille Delisle, Hocine Rekaik, Aurélie Hintermann, Alexandre Gauthier Aurèle Mayran

Temporal activation of Hox genes in mouse pseudo-embryos in vitro initiates at the anterior part of the cluster and is accompanied by asymmetric loading of cohesin. Posterior CTCF sites then successively act as transient insulators, regulating the timed tr ...

Self-supervised Dense Representation Learning for Live-Cell Microscopy with Time Arrow Prediction

Max Stieber, Martin Weigert, Benjamin Tobias Gallusser

State-of-the-art object detection and segmentation methods for microscopy images rely on supervised machine learning, which requires laborious manual annotation of training data. Here we present a self-supervised method based on time arrow prediction pre-t ...

Debates on the dorsomedial prefrontal/dorsal anterior cingulate cortex: insights for future research

Nicolas Clairis

The dorsomedial prefrontal cortex/dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dmPFC/dACC) is a brain area subject to many theories and debates over its function(s). Even its precise anatomical borders are subject to much controversy. In the past decades, the dmPFC/d ...
