Carbon nanotube uptake in cyanobacteria for near-infrared imaging and enhanced bioelectricity generation in living photovoltaics

Ardemis Anoush Boghossian, Alice Judith Gillen, Vitalijs Zubkovs, Alessandra Antonucci, Benjamin Paul Johanès Gabriel Lambert, Nils Schürgers, Melania Reggente, Charlotte Elisabeth Marie Roullier, Mohammed Mouhib

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) have unique optoelectronic properties that make them suitable for applications ranging from phototherapy to imaging and sensing, but their uptake has mainly been explored in eukaryotic cells. Here the authors explore ...

Robotic manipulation to investigate the physical principles of biological self-organization

Fazil Emre Uslu

Self-organization is the spontaneous formation of ordered patterns and networks from a population of comparatively simple elements or individuals with no prior information on neither the formation process nor the final organization. While the construction ...

Space-time logic of liver gene expression at sub-lobular scale

Felix Naef, Colas Noé Droin, Clémence Yumie Syloun Hurni

The mammalian liver is a central hub for systemic metabolic homeostasis. Liver tissue is spatially structured, with hepatocytes operating in repeating lobules, and sub-lobule zones performing distinct functions. The liver is also subject to extensive tempo ...

Emerging functions of the nuclear receptor LRH-1 in liver physiology and pathology

Kristina Schoonjans, Hadrien Charles Edouard Demagny, Yu Sun

Nuclear receptors play pleiotropic roles in cell differentiation, development, proliferation, and metabolic processes to govern liver physiology and pathology. The nuclear receptor, liver receptor homolog-1 (LRH-1, NR5A2), originally identified in the live ...

Iron status influences non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in obesity through the gut microbiome

Xavier Fernandez-Real Girona

Background: The gut microbiome and iron status are known to play a role in the pathophysiology of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), although their complex interaction remains unclear. Results: Here, we applied an integrative systems medicine approa ...

NICEdrug.ch, a workflow for rational drug design and systems-level analysis of drug metabolism

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Noushin Hadadi, Jasmin Maria Hafner, Anush Chiappino-Pepe, Homa Mohammadi Peyhani

The discovery of a drug requires over a decade of intensive research and financial investments – and still has a high risk of failure. To reduce this burden, we developed the NICEdrug.ch resource, which incorporates 250,000 bioactive molecules, and studied ...

Circadian dynamics of RNA localisation in the mammalian liver

Clémence Yumie Syloun Hurni

Gene expression in eukaryotes is a complex multi-step process. It starts in the nucleus with transcription, the synthesis of a mRNA copy from a DNA template. While in the nucleus, the RNA transcript is subject to multiple co- and post-transcriptional modif ...

Assessment of Aspartate and Bicarbonate Produced From Hyperpolarized [1-13C]Pyruvate as Markers of Renal Gluconeogenesis

Arnaud Comment, Hikari Ananda Infinity Yoshihara

As both a consumer and producer of glucose, the kidney plays a significant role in glucose homeostasis. Measuring renal gluconeogenesis requires invasive techniques, and less invasive methods would allow renal gluconeogenesis to be measured more routinely. ...

SMN Depleted Mice Offer a Robust and Rapid Onset Model of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

Bernard Schneider

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is considered a health epidemic with potential devastating effects on the patients and the healthcare systems. Current preclinical models of NAFLD are invariably imperfect and generally take a lon ...

Nanomechanical bio-sensing for fast and reliable detection of viability and susceptibility of microorganisms

Giovanni Dietler, Sandor Kasas, María Inés Villalba, Leonardo Venturelli, Raphaël Foschia

The metabolic activity of living organisms results in cellular motion on a nanometric scale that can be efficiently detected by micro- and nano- fabricated sensors. Quartz crystal microbalance and atomic force microscopy (AFM) inspired techniques have rece ...

Analysis and Modeling of the Dynamics of Traction Forces during Cell Polarization and their Role in the Organization of Edge Activity

Zeno Messi

The capacity to break symmetry and organize activity to move directionally is a fundamental property of eukaryotic cells. To explain the organization of cell-edge activity, models commonly rely on front-to-back gradients of functional components or regulat ...

Defined matrices for epithelial organoid culture and disease modelling

Saba Rezakhani

Advances in our understanding of the biology of stem cells and their niches have provided the necessary foundation to create in vitro complex self-organizing three-dimensional (3D) structures called organoids. While organoids represent a highly promising n ...
