Fryns type mesomelic dysplasia of the upper limbs caused by inverted duplications of the HOXD gene cluster

Denis Duboule

The HoxD cluster is critical for vertebrate limb development. Enhancers located in both the telomeric and centromeric gene deserts flanking the cluster regulate the transcription of HoxD genes. In rare patients, duplications, balanced translocations or inv ...

HISTOBREAST, a collection of brightfield microscopy images of Haematoxylin and Eosin stained breast tissue

Tiberiu Totu, Roxana-Madalina Buga

Modern histopathology workflows rely on the digitization of histology slides. The quality of the resulting digital representations, in the form of histology slide image mosaics, depends on various specific acquisition conditions and on the image processing ...

Detection of mRNA by Whole Mount in situ Hybridization and DNA Extraction for Genotyping of Zebrafish Embryos

Andrew Charles Oates, Rachna Narayanan

In situ hybridization is used to visualize the spatial distribution of gene transcripts in tissues and in embryos, providing important information about disease and development. Current methods involve the use of complementary riboprobes incorporating non- ...

High-content, cell-by-cell assessment of HER2 overexpression and amplification: a tool for intratumoral heterogeneity detection in breast cancer

Martinus Adela Maria Gijs, Daniel Migliozzi, Huu Tuan Nguyen

Immunohistochemistry and fluorescence in situ hybridization are the two standard methods for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) assessment. However, they have severe limitations to assess quantitatively intratumoral heterogeneity (ITH) when mu ...

Improvement of breast cancer diagnosis through microfluidics

Huu Tuan Nguyen

In breast cancer, 15-20% of cases are reported with overexpression of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) that causes rapid cancer progression and poor prognosis. Fortunately, HER2-targeted therapy using specific antibodies such as Trastuzumab ...

Microfluidics-assisted fluorescence in situ hybridization for advantageous human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 assessment in breast cancer

Martinus Adela Maria Gijs, Raphaël Etienne Jean Trouillon, Huu Tuan Nguyen

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is one of the recommended techniques for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) status assessment on cancer tissues. Here we develop microfluidics-assisted FISH (MA-FISH), in which hybridization of the FIS ...

Continuous quantification of HER2 expression by microfluidic precision immunofluorescence estimates HER2 gene amplification in breast cancer

Martinus Adela Maria Gijs, Ata Tuna Ciftlik, Diego Gabriel Dupouy

Chromogenic immunohistochemistry (IHC) is omnipresent in cancer diagnosis, but has also been criticized for its technical limit in quantifying the level of protein expression on tissue sections, thus potentially masking clinically relevant data. Shifting f ...

Extra short incubation microfluidic assisted – fluorescence in situ hybridization (ESIMA-FISH)

Martinus Adela Maria Gijs, Raphaël Etienne Jean Trouillon, Huu Tuan Nguyen, Estelle Annick Cuttaz

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is a powerful technique for evaluating the HER2 gene status in breast cancer specimen (1). However, most of FISH assays currently used in clinical laboratories are expensive and require long experimental time, up t ...

Microfluidic staining technology and automated image processing for fast and accurate tissue-based diagnostics

Diego Gabriel Dupouy

The development of microfluidics has led to significant improvements in many areas of in vitro diagnostics. This thesis proposes the use of microfluidic device technology in the field of anatomic pathology, leading to faster and more accurate tissue-based ...

FLUORESCENCE IN SITU HYBRIDIZATION (FISH) ENHANCEMENT USING MICROFLUIDIC FLOW FOR AN ACCURATE, FAST AND ECONOMICAL ASSESSMENT OF HER2 STATUS IN BREAST CANCER

Martinus Adela Maria Gijs, Raphaël Etienne Jean Trouillon, Huu Tuan Nguyen

The fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is the gold standard in human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) status assessment in breast cancer. The dissemination of the technique is impeded by the cost of reagents and long experimental time. For ...

From Environmental Sequences to Morphology: Observation and Characterisation of a Paulinellid Testate Amoeba (Micropyxidiella edaphonis gen. nov. sp. nov. Euglyphida, Paulinellidae) from Soil using Fluorescent in situ Hybridization

Enrique Lara, Sonia Estelle Tarnawski

High microbial diversity is revealed by environmental DNA surveys. However, nothing is known about the morphology and function of these potentially new organisms. In the course of an environmental soil diversity study, we found for the first time environme ...

Hybridization of wave functions in one-dimensional localization

Dmitri Ivanov

A quantum particle can be localized in a disordered potential, the effect known as Anderson localization. In such a system, correlations of wave functions at very close energies may be described, due to Mott, in terms of a hybridization of localized states ...

Diminished hippocalcin expression in Huntington's disease brain does not account for increased striatal neuron vulnerability as assessed in primary neurons

Nicole Déglon

Hippocalcin is a neuronal calcium sensor protein previously implicated in regulating neuronal viability and plasticity. Hippocalcin is the most highly expressed neuronal calcium sensor in the medium spiny striatal output neurons that degenerate selectively ...
