The centriolar protein CPAP G-box: an amyloid fibril in a single domain

Centrioles are evolutionarily conserved cylindrical cell organelleswith characteristic radial symmetry. Despite their considerable size (400 nm x 200 nm, in humans), genetic studies suggest that relatively few protein components are involved in their assem ...

Sleep Apnea Detection using Features from the Respiration and the ECG recorded with Smart-Shirts

Jean-Marc Vesin, Leila Mirmohamadsadeghi, Grégoire Millet, Andréa Buttu, Sibylle Fallet

The automatic detection of sleep apnea episodes, without the need of polysomnography and outside a clinical facility, could help facilitate the diagnosis of this disorder. In this work, features to detect sleep apnea events were computed from respiration a ...

Altered cortical and subcortical local coherence in obstructive sleep apnea: a functional magnetic resonance imaging study

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Jonas Richiardi

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome is the most common sleep-related breathing disorder, characterized by excessive snoring and repetitive apneas and arousals, which leads to fragmented sleep and, most importantly, to intermittent nocturnal hypoxaemia d ...

Sustained sleep fragmentation affects brain temperature, food intake and glucose tolerance in mice

Pierre Magistretti, Jean-Marie Petit, Maxime Olivier Baud

Sleep fragmentation is present in numerous sleep pathologies and constitutes a major feature of patients with obstructive sleep apnea. A prevalence of metabolic syndrome, diabetes and obesity has been shown to be associated to obstructive sleep apnea. Whil ...

Principal component structuring of the Non-REM sleep EEG spectrum in older adults yields age-related changes in the sleep and wake drives

Mirjam Münch

Age-related disturbances of the sleep-wake cycle can reflect ontogenetic changes in regulatory mechanisms underlying normal and pathological aging, but the exact nature of these changes remains unclear. The present report is the first attempt to apply prin ...

Challenging the sleep homeostat: Sleep in depression is not premature aging

Mirjam Münch

Objectives: The close relationship between major depression and sleep disturbances led to the hypothesis of a deficiency in homeostatic sleep pressure in depression (S-deficiency hypothesis). Many observed changes of sleep characteristics in depression are ...

Multivariate Spectral Analysis for Identifying the Brain Activations During Olfactory Perception

Touradj Ebrahimi, Jean-Marc Vesin, Ashkan Yazdani, Eleni Kroupi

Olfactory perception is a complex phenomenon associated with other processes such as cognition and emotion. Due to this complexity, there are still open issues and challenges regarding olfactory psychophysiology. One challenge concerns the investigation of ...

Spindle positioning in human cells relies on proper centriole formation and on the microcephaly proteins CPAP and STIL

Pierre Gönczy, Petr Strnad, Debora Keller, Fernando Romero Balestra, Gregor Kohlmaier

Patients with MCPH (autosomal recessive primary microcephaly) exhibit impaired brain development, presumably due to the compromised function of neuronal progenitors. Seven MCPH loci have been identified, including one that encodes centrosome protein 4.1 as ...

Single Trial Recognition of Error-Related Potentials During Observation of Robot Operation

Inaki Asier Iturrate Gil

Recent works suggest that several human cognitive processes elicited during the observation and monitoring of tasks developed by others can be detected in real time. These works have also demonstrated that human brain activity can be used to recover from m ...

Adaptive Sleep-Wake Discrimination for Wearable Devices

Dario Floreano, Walter Karlen

Sleep/wake classification systems that rely on phys- iological signals suffer from inter-subject differences that make accurate classification with a single, subject-independent model difficult. To overcome the limitations of inter-subject variability we s ...
