Compliance-matching vascular grafts with personalization potential

Georgios Rovas

Aortic diseases are characterized by dire prognosis and inadequate diagnosis, owing to their insidious yet lethal nature. Aortopathies, namely aortic aneurysms and dissections, along with certain congenital diseases, might necessitate surgical replacement ...

Intraocular Lens Refractive Index and Its Impact on External Surface Reflections

Georges Wagnières

PURPOSE: To determine and compare the origin of the external surface reflections produced by commonly used intraocular lenses (IOLs). ...

Ocular Structures Segmentation from Multi-sequences MRI Using 3D Unet with Fully Connected CRFs

Meritxell Bach Cuadra, Raphael Sznitman, Alessia Pica

The use of 3D Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has attracted growing attention for the purpose of diagnosis and treatment planning of intraocular ocular cancers. Precise segmentation of such tumors are highly important to characterize tumors, their progres ...

Mechanical and Functional Study of Cell Physiology at the Nanoscale

Pascal Damian Odermatt

By live-cell imaging of biological samples dynamic cellular processes can be resolved. Fluorescence microscopy (FM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) are both capable of imaging live cells. By combining these techniques structural as well as functional inf ...

Enrichment of pathogenic alleles in the brittle cornea gene, ZNF469, in keratoconus

Keratoconus, a common inherited ocular disorder resulting in progressive corneal thinning, is the leading indication for corneal transplantation in the developed world. Genome-wide association studies have identified common SNPs 100 kb upstream of ZNF469 s ...

Innovative strategy of corneal epithelium regeneration using fabricated soft contact lens containing cavities for stem cells transplantation

Julien Graber

Transplantation of donor cornea is widely performed with a high success rate to treat patients with impaired corneal transparency. However the limited number of donors has led scientists to search for new technologies and treatments, including stem cell th ...

Corneal Endothelial Cell Fate Is Maintained by LGR5 Through the Regulation of Hedgehog and Wnt Pathway

Yann Barrandon

Leucine-rich repeat-containing G protein-coupled receptor 5 (LGR5), a target of Wnt signaling, is reportedly a marker of intestine, stomach, and hair follicle stem cells in mice. To gain a novel insight into the role of LGR5 in human corneal tissue, we per ...

Second harmonic generating (SHG) Nanoprobes: A new tool for biomedical imaging

Demetri Psaltis, Ye Pu, Ye Pu

Cornea functions as an outermost lens and plays an important role in vision. For cornea diagnosis and treatment, a microscopic imaging system with cellular resolution and high eye safety is strongly desired. Recently, the cell morphology of corneal epithel ...

Hes1 regulates corneal development and the function of corneal epithelial stem/progenitor cells

Yann Barrandon

Hes1, a major target gene in Notch signaling, regulates the fate and differentiation of various cell types in many developmental systems. To gain a novel insight into the role of Hes1 in corneal tissue, we performed gain-of-function and loss-of-function st ...

Oligopotent stem cells are distributed throughout the mammalian ocular surface

Yann Barrandon, Ariane Rochat, Georges Abou Jaoudé

The integrity of the cornea, the most anterior part of the eye, is indispensable for vision. Forty- five million individuals worldwide are bilaterally blind and another 135 million have severely impaired vision in both eyes because of loss of corneal trans ...

Corneal epithelial cell fate is maintained during repair by Notch1 signaling via the regulation of vitamin A metabolism

Freddy Radtke, Yann Barrandon

Integrity and preservation of a transparent cornea are essential for good vision. The corneal epithelium is stratified and nonkeratinized and is maintained and repaired by corneal stem cells. Here we demonstrate that Notch1 signaling is essential for cell ...

Introducing bulky functional lanthanide cores into thermotropic metallomesogens: a bottom-up approach

Rosario Scopelliti, Jean-Claude Bünzli, Stéphane Suarez

Basic thermodynamic considerations are used to rationalize the formation of thermotropic mesophases incorporating aromatic ligands for trivalent lanthanide metal ions (Ln). Standard flat and bent molecular interfaces, separating the central binding unit fr ...

Low coherence digital holographic microscopy : applications to vision in turbid media and biomedical imaging

Pia Massatsch

A new holographic technique combining digital holographic microscopy with the use of low coherence light has been developed and the potential of the resulting method for vision in turbid media and biomedical imaging has been evaluated. In digital holograph ...
