Design and in vitro Characterization of a Wearable Multisensing System for Hydration Monitoring

Sandro Carrara, Ata Jedari Golparvar, Sarah Tonello, Ali Meimandi

Dehydration is a frequent condition in the elderly and can lead to serious health complications if not compensated timely. Early diagnosis can be problematic, as medical examinations in the hospital would be needed. Fully wearable low-cost multisensing dev ...

Development and validation of a multiplex real-time qPCR assay using GMP-grade reagents for leprosy diagnosis

Stewart Cole, Charlotte Avanzi

Author summaryLeprosy is a chronic dermato-neurological disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae, an obligate intracellular bacterium. Diagnosis of leprosy often relies on skin examinations for clinical signs, bacilli staining from skin smears and invasive s ...

Action augmentation of tactile perception for soft-body palpation

Josephine Anna Eleanor Hughes

Medical palpation is a diagnostic technique in which physicians use the sense of touch to manipulate the soft human tissue. This can be done to enable the diagnosis of possibly life-threatening conditions, such as cancer. Palpation is still poorly understo ...

Tau seeds from patients induce progressive supranuclear palsy pathology and symptoms in primates

Grégoire Courtine, Tomislav Milekovic, Flavio Raschella

Progressive supranuclear palsy is a primary tauopathy affecting both neurons and glia and is responsible for both motor and cognitive symptoms. Recently, it has been suggested that progressive supranuclear palsy tauopathy may spread in the brain from cell ...

Standardized intraoperative 5-ALA photodynamic therapy for newly diagnosed glioblastoma patients: a preliminary analysis of the INDYGO clinical trial

Constantin Tuleasca

Purpose Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive malignant primary brain tumor. The unfavorable prognosis despite maximal therapy relates to high propensity for recurrence. Thus, overall survival (OS) is quite limited and local failure remains the fundame ...

The angiopoietin-Tie2 pathway regulates Purkinje cell dendritic morphogenesis in a cell-autonomous manner

Michele De Palma

Neuro-vascular communication is essential to synchronize central nervous system development. Here, we identify angiopoietin/Tie2 as a neuro-vascular signaling axis involved in regulating dendritic morphogenesis of Purkinje cells (PCs). We show that in the ...

Evaluation and robotic simulation of the glenohumeral joint

Matteo Mancuso

The shoulder is the joint with the largest range of motion in the human body. It is composed of three articulations, the glenohumeral articulation providing about two thirds of its mobility which is, also the most complex and fragile of the three. For this ...

Adverse effects of immune-checkpoint inhibitors: epidemiology, management and surveillance

Filipe Amândio Brandão Sanches Vong Martins

Immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), including anti-cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4), anti-programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) and anti-programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) antibodies, are arguably the most important development in cancer therapy o ...

Cross-Reactive Alginate Derivatives for the Production of Dual Ionic−Covalent Hydrogel Microspheres Presenting Tunable Properties for Cell Microencapsulation

Sandrine Gerber, Aurélien Bornet, François Rémi Pierre Noverraz, Luca Szabó

The production of hydrogel micropsheres (MS) presenting physical, mechanical, and biological properties which can be modulated by their chemical composition is required to enlarge the panel of biomaterials for cell transplantation therapies. Functionalizat ...

Immunomodulatory Roles of Lymphatic Vessels in Cancer Progression

Melody Swartz

Lymphatic vessels in the tumor microenvironment are known to foster tumor metastasis in many cancers, and they can undergo activation, hyperplasia, and lymphangiogenesis in the tumor microenvironment and in the tumor-draining lymph node. The mechanism unde ...

Replication of Telomeres and the Regulation of Telomerase

Joachim Lingner, Verena Pfeiffer

Telomeres are the physical ends of eukaryotic chromosomes. They protect chromosome ends from DNA degradation, recombination, and DNA end fusions, and they are important for nuclear architecture. Telomeres provide a mechanism for their replication by semico ...

A three-state model for the regulation of telomerase by TERRA and hnRNPA1

Joachim Lingner, Sophie Redon, Ivo Zemp

Telomeres, the physical ends of eukaryotic chromosomes, are transcribed into telomeric repeat-containing RNA (TERRA), a large non-coding RNA, which forms an integral part of telomeric heterochromatin. In vitro, naked TERRA molecules are efficient inhibitor ...

TERRA: telomeric repeat-containing RNA

Joachim Lingner

Telomeres, the physical ends of eukaryotic chromosomes, consist of tandem arrays of short DNA repeats and a large set of specialized proteins. A recent analysis has identified telomeric repeat-containing RNA ( TERRA), a large non-coding RNA in animals and ...

Preliminary evidence for a fronto-parietal dysfunction in able-bodied participants with a desire for limb amputation

Olaf Blanke, Peter Andreas Brugger

BACKGROUND: Reports of able-bodied participants with the persisting desire for limb amputation raise legal and ethical questions that are partly due to insufficient empirical knowledge about the condition. Here, we searched for potential neurological mecha ...

Ambulatory evaluation of 3D knee joint function in patients with ACL rupture using inertial sensors

Julien Favre

In orthopaedics, outcome evaluation is currently recognized as a major challenge to improve the knowledge both about injuries and treatments. For anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture, various evaluation tools are available for routine uses: clinical ex ...

Telomere length homeostasis

Joachim Lingner

The physical ends of chromosomes, known as telomeres, protect chromosome ends from nucleolytic degradation and DNA repair activities. Conventional DNA replication enzymes lack the ability to fully replicate telomere ends. In addition, nucleolytic activitie ...
