Primary data for EPFL thesis "Characterisation of conditional alleles of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe cytokinesis regulator byr4"

Michael Grüner Vindfeldt

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 ...

Role of the androgen receptor in the human breast epithelium

Fabio De Martino

Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women worldwide and understanding the risk factors affecting it is key for prevention. The relative risk of developing breast cancer is related to exposure to both endogenous hormones and exogenous natural and ...

The Transcription Factor Nfix Requires RhoA-ROCK1 Dependent Phagocytosis to Mediate Macrophage Skewing during Skeletal Muscle Regeneration

Giuliana Rossi

Macrophages (MPs) are immune cells which are crucial for tissue repair. In skeletal muscle regeneration, pro-inflammatory cells first infiltrate to promote myogenic cell proliferation, then they switch into an anti-inflammatory phenotype to sustain myogeni ...

Transient domains of ordered water induced by divalent ions lead to lipid membrane curvature fluctuations

Sylvie Roke, Halil Ibrahim Okur, Orly Bagunu Tarun

Cations influence the electrostatic, chemical and mechanical properties of lipid bilayers. Here, label-free second harmonic microscopy shows that cation-induced transient ordering of water also plays a role in driving membrane curvature fluctuations, linki ...

In vivo reprogramming of non-mammary cells to an epithelial cell fate is independent of amphiregulin signaling

Cathrin Brisken, Stéphanie Cagnet

AREG-/- mice demonstrate impaired mammary development and form only rudimentary ductal epithelial trees, however, AREG-/- glands are still capable of undergoing alveologenesis and lactogenesis during pregnancy. Transplantation of AREG-/- mammary epithelial ...

Lentivirus vector gene expression during ES cell-derived hematopoietic development in vitro

Didier Trono, Romain Zufferey

The murine embryonal stem (ES) cell virus (MESV) can express transgenes from the long terminal repeat (LTR) promoter/enhancer in undifferentiated ES cells, but expression is turned off upon differentiation to embryoid bodies (EBs) and hematopoietic cells i ...
