Kinematic and gait similarities between crawling human infants and other quadruped mammals

Crawling on hands and knees is an early pattern of human infant locomotion, which offers an interesting way of studying quadrupedalism in one of its simplest form. We investigate how crawling human infants compare to other quadruped mammals, especially pri ...

Proteomics and circadian rhythms: It's all about signaling!

Loïc Dayon, Frédéric Bruno Martin Gachon, Martin Kussmann, Daniel Alain Dominique Marie Mauvoisin

Proteomic technologies using MS offer new perspectives in circadian biology, in particular the possibility to study PTMs. To date, only very few studies have been carried out to decipher the rhythmicity of protein expression in mammals with large-scale pro ...

Chromatin architectures and hox gene collinearity

Denis Duboule, Daniël Noordermeer

Ever since the observation that collinearity, that is, the sequential activity of Hox genes based on their relative positions within their gene clusters, is conserved throughout most of the animal kingdom, the question has been raised as to what are the un ...

Use of waste products for detecting amyloidogenic proteinaceous material in living mammals

Theo Lasser, Patrick Fraering, Tristan Bolmont, Taoufiq Harach

Method for detecting amyloidogenic proteinaceous material induced by a proteopathy, for instance Alzheimer's disease, characterized by the fact that said amyloidogenic proteinaceous material is detected in a mammal waste product, such as feces. ...

Self-Organization of Spinal Reflexes through Soft Musculoskeletal Interactions

There has been a long-standing debate on the question of how basic reflexive behaviours in mammals come about. Recently, it has been hypothesized that soft musculoskeletal interactions, such as intrinsic passive dynamics, might play a crucial role in the d ...

Embryonic stem cell potency fluctuates with endogenous retrovirus activity

Didier Trono, Helen Mary Rowe

Embryonic stem (ES) cells are derived from blastocyst-stage embryos and are thought to be functionally equivalent to the inner cell mass, which lacks the ability to produce all extraembryonic tissues. Here we identify a rare transient cell population withi ...

On the Relationship Between Protein-DNA Interactions and Circadian Gene Expression in Mouse Liver

Guillaume Rey

Virtually every cell in our body tracks daily time using an endogenous mechanism called the circadian clock, which has a period of about 24 hours. This timing system offers a selective advantage by enabling organisms to anticipate periodic changes in envir ...

Editing at the crossroad of innate and adaptive immunity

Didier Trono, Priscilla Turelli

Genetic information can be altered through the enzymatic modification of nucleotide sequences. This process, known as editing, was originally identified in the mitochondrial RNA of trypanosomes and later found to condition events as diverse as neurotransmi ...

Rapid induction of functional and morphological continuity between severed ends of mammalian or earthworm myelinated axons

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell

The inability to rapidly restore the loss of function that results from severance (cutting or crushing) of PNS and CNS axons is a severe clinical problem. As a novel strategy to help alleviate this problem, we have developed in vitro procedures using Ca2+- ...

Autoradiographic analysis of the distribution of vasoactive intestinal peptide binding sites in the vertebrate central nervous system: a phylogenetic study

Pierre Magistretti, Jean-Luc Martin

The distribution of vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) binding sites in the brain of several vertebrate species was examined by in vitro autoradiography on slide-mounted sections. This study included fish, frog, snake, pigeon, rat, mouse, guinea pig, cat ...
