The matricellular protein Drosophila Cellular Communication Network Factor is required for synaptic transmission and female fertility

Evelyne Ruchti, Brian Donal McCabe

Within the extracellular matrix, matricellular proteins are dynamically expressed nonstructural proteins that interact with cell surface receptors, growth factors, and proteases, as well as with structural matrix proteins. The cellular communication networ ...

Human reproduction is regulated by retrotransposons derived from ancient Hominidae-specific viral infections

Didier Trono, Julien Paul André Pontis

The transcription factor network required for primordial germ cell (PGC) specification is known to diverge in mammals. Here the authors show that hominidae-specific transposable element (TE) LTR5Hs becomes transcriptionally active during PGC specification, ...

International Migration And The Growth Of Zurich, 1836-1949

Mathias Lerch

The role played by international migration and its interactions with other demographic components in the process of city growth remains underappreciated. We analyze trends in natural increase and in net internal and international migration in Zurich during ...

KRAB zinc finger protein-mediated control of transposon-embedded regulatory sequences from human germline to early embryos

Alexandra Iouranova

Transposable elements (TEs), also called jumping genes, are genetic elements capable of changing their position within the genome of their host. They make up large fractions of genomes, including 45% of human DNA content, according to current estimates. S ...

Both diversity and functional composition affect productivity and water use efficiency in experimental temperate grasslands

Charlotte Grossiord, Margaux Clara Lou Didion-Gency

Many experiments have shown that biodiversity promotes ecosystem functioning and stability and that this relationship varies with resource availability. However, we still have a poor understanding of the underlying physiological and ecological mechanisms d ...

New architecture for the analog front-end of Medipix4

Jean-Michel Sallese, Adil Koukab, Viros Sriskaran

The Medipix4 chip is the latest member of the family of Medipix pixel detector readout chips aimed at high rate spectroscopic X-ray imaging. Unlike its predecessors, it will be possible to tile the chip on all 4 sides permitting seamless large area coverag ...

Regional variation in the rural-urban fertility gradient in the developing world

Mathias Lerch

The study of regional trends in the rural-urban fertility gradient helps us to understand the pace of completion of the fertility transition and the geography of urban growth in the global South. We question whether the hypothesized inverted U-shaped evolu ...

Evolution of longevity improves immunity in Drosophila

Bruno Lemaitre

Much has been learned about the genetics of aging from studies in model organisms, but still little is known about naturally occurring alleles that contribute to variation in longevity. For example, analysis of mutants and transgenes has identified insulin ...

Does Proton Conduction in the Voltage-Gated H+ Channel hHv1 Involve Grotthuss-Like Hopping via Acidic Residues?

Ursula Röthlisberger, Siri Camee van Keulen, Lucie Monique Françoise Delemotte

Hv1s are ubiquitous highly selective voltage-gated proton channels involved in male fertility, immunology, and the invasiveness of certain forms of breast cancer. The mechanism of proton extrusion in Hv1 is not yet understood, while it constitutes the firs ...

Mutations in the polyglutamylase geneTTLL5, expressed in photoreceptor cells and spermatozoa, are associated with cone-rod degeneration and reduced male fertility

Hereditary retinal degenerations encompass a group of genetic diseases characterized by extreme clinical variability. Following next-generation sequencing and autozygome-based screening of patients presenting with a peculiar, recessive form of cone-dominat ...

Possibilities in Germ Cell Research: An Engineering Insight

Omid Mashinchian

Germ cells (GCs) are responsible for fertility and disruptions in their development or function cause infertility. However, current knowledge about the diverse mechanisms involved in GC development and function is still in its infancy. This is mainly becau ...

Bile Acids Alter Male Fertility Through G-Protein-Coupled Bile Acid Receptor 1 Signaling Pathways in Mice

Kristina Schoonjans

Bile acids (BAs) are signaling molecules that are involved in many physiological functions, such as glucose and energy metabolism. These effects are mediated through activation of the nuclear and membrane receptors, farnesoid X receptor (FXR-alpha) and TGR ...

Wiley-Blackwell2014

Hepatotoxicity induced by neonatal exposure to diethylstilbestrol is maintained throughout adulthood via the nuclear receptor SHP

Kristina Schoonjans

Background: Liver physiology is sensitive to estrogens, which suggests that the liver might be a target of estrogenic endocrine disrupters (EED). However, the long-term consequences of neonatal exposure to EED on liver physiology have rarely been studied. ...

Global human tissue profiling and protein network analysis reveals distinct levels of transcriptional germline-specificity and identifies target genes for male infertility

Mammalian spermatogenesis is a process that involves a complex expression program in both somatic and germ cells present in the male gonad. A number of studies have attempted to define the transcriptome of male meiosis and gametogenesis in rodents and prim ...

The Glucocorticoid-Induced Leucine Zipper (Gilz/Tsc22d3-2) Gene Locus Plays a Crucial Role in Male Fertility

Jian Wang, Friedrich Beermann, Roman Chrast

The glucocorticoid-induced leucine zipper (Tsc22d3-2) is a widely expressed dexamethasone-induced transcript that has been proposed to be important in immunity, adipogenesis, and renal sodium handling based on in vitro studies. To address its function in v ...

Mécanismes rétroactifs de ségrégation, entre une société urbaine et son espace : Un modèle basé agents

André Ourednik

This paper describes an agent-based model of socio-spatial segregation, result of a synthesis between « Schelling’s spatial segregation model » and a demographc model of dependency between household fertility rates and socio-economical status of their desc ...
