Generation of Human iPSC-Derived Neurons on Nanowire Arrays Featuring Varying Lengths, Pitches, and Diameters
Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Wonjong Kim
Nanowire (NW) arrays interfaced with biological cells have been demonstrated to be potent tools for advanced applications such as sensing, stimulation, or drug delivery. Many implementations, however, have so far only been studied with rather robust basic ...
WILEY2022Naming CHO cells for bio-manufacturing: Genome plasticity and variant phenotypes of cell populations in bioreactors question the relevance of old names
Chinese Hamster Ovary [CHO] cells are the workhorse for production of modern biopharmaceuticals. They are however immortalized cells with a high propensity for genetic change. Judging from published culture records, CHO cell populations have undergone hund ...
2021New Stable Cell Lines Derived from the Proximal and Distal Intestine of Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) Retain Several Properties Observed In Vivo
We derived two novel cell lines from rainbow trout (RT) proximal (RTpi-MI) and distal intestine (RTdi-MI) and compared them with the previously established continuous cell line RTgutGC. Intestinal stem cells, differentiating and differentiated epithelial c ...
MDPI2021The double-edged toxins
Many insect species are associated with endosymbiotic bacteria which have the particularity of living within host tissues. Endosymbionts benefit from this stable and nutritious environment, while providing ecological advantages to their host, such as prote ...
EPFL2018Studying membrane-protein interplay by modeling realistic conditions
Realistic models of cellular environments have long captured the imagination of biologists and physical scientists. More than 20 years ago, Goodshellâs inspiring rendering of cellular environments provided the foundation for the idea of capturing the ful ...
EPFL2017No DDRama at chromosome ends: TRF2 takes centre stage
Antonio Porro, Liuh-Yow Chen, Sascha Feuerhahn
Telomeres are nucleoprotein structures capping the natural termini of eukaryotic linear chromosomes. Telomeres possess an inherent ability to circumvent the activation of a full-blown DNA damage response (DDR), and hence fusion reactions, by limiting inapp ...

Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg, Laurence Gouzi Abrami, Daniel Migliozzi, Florence Armand, Fabrice David, Jérôme Bürgi, Mathieu Blanc
Protein S-palmitoylation is a reversible post-translational modification that regulates many key biological processes, although the full extent and functions of protein S-palmitoylation remain largely unexplored. Recent developments of new chemical methods ...
