Natural and targeted circuit reorganization after spinal cord injury

Grégoire Courtine, Jocelyne Bloch, Quentin Barraud, Jordan Squair, Mark Andrew Anderson, Claudia Kathe, Matthieu Pierre Gautier, Thomas Haynes Hutson

The authors summarize changes in circuits after spinal cord injury and current strategies to target these circuits in order to improve recovery, but also advocate for new concepts of reorganizing circuits informed by multi-omic single-cell atlases. A spina ...

An integrative multi-omics approach reveals new central nervous system pathway alterations in Alzheimer's disease

Mojgan Masoodi, Christopher Clark

Background Multiple pathophysiological processes have been described in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Their inter-individual variations, complex interrelations, and relevance for clinical manifestation and disease progression remain poorly understood. We hypot ...

Dual proteomics of Drosophila melanogaster hemolymph infected with the heritable endosymbiont Spiroplasma poulsonii

Bruno Lemaitre, Samuel Rommelaere, Fanny Schüpfer, Florent François Masson, Alice Marra

Insects are frequently infected with heritable bacterial endosymbionts. Endosymbionts have a dramatic impact on their host physiology and evolution. Their tissue distribution is variable with some species being housed intracellularly, some extracellularly ...

DBnorm as an R package for the comparison and selection of appropriate statistical methods for batch effect correction in metabolomic studies

Nicolas Jean Philippe Guex, Murielle Bochud, Cristian Carmeli, Aurélien Thomas, Tiziana Caputo

As a powerful phenotyping technology, metabolomics provides new opportunities in biomarker discovery through metabolome-wide association studies (MWAS) and the identification of metabolites having a regulatory effect in various biological processes. While ...

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 ...

Human genomics of the humoral immune response against polyomaviruses

Jacques Fellay, Christian Axel Wandall Thorball, Zhi Ming Xu, Olivier Noël Marie Naret, Christian Hammer, Flavia Aurelia Shoko Hodel, Petar Scepanovic

Human polyomaviruses are widespread in humans and can cause severe disease in immunocompromised individuals. To identify human genetic determinants of the humoral immune response against polyomaviruses, we performed genome-wide association studies and meta ...

Bottom-up de novo design of functional proteins with complex structural features

Luciano Andres Abriata, Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia, Sandrine Madeleine Suzanne Georgeon, Leo Scheller, Jaume Bonet Martinez, Fabian Sesterhenn, Stéphane Rosset, Che Yang, Eva Anna van Aalen

De novo protein design has enabled the creation of new protein structures. However, the design of functional proteins has proved challenging, in part due to the difficulty of transplanting structurally complex functional sites to available protein structur ...

Engineering next generation organoids through guided stem cell self-organisation

Mikhail Nikolaev

One of the long-standing goals in the field of tissue engineering is the fabrication of de novo tissues or even organs to provide better tissue models for basic research and drug discovery, and to alleviate a shortage of donor organs in the future. Resear ...

Evolutionary history expands the range of signaling interactions in hybrid multikinase networks

Anne-Florence Raphaëlle Bitbol, Mohamed Barakat

Two-component systems (TCSs) are ubiquitous signaling pathways, typically comprising a sensory histidine kinase (HK) and a response regulator, which communicate via intermolecular kinase-to-receiver domain phosphotransfer. Hybrid HKs constitute non-canonic ...

EPD in 2020: enhanced data visualization and extension to ncRNA promoters

Giovanna Ambrosini, Philipp Bucher, René Dreos, Romain Fernand Pietro Groux, Patrick Meylan

The Eukaryotic Promoter Database (EPD), available online at https://epd.epfl.ch, provides accurate transcription start site (TSS) information for promoters of 15 model organisms plus corresponding functional genomics data that can be viewed in a genome bro ...
