Effective segmentation of fresh post-mortem murine lung parenchyma in phase contrast X-ray tomographic microscopy images

Goran Lovric, Marco Stampanoni

The acinus represents the functional unit of the mammalian lung. It is defined as the small tree of gas-exchanging airways, which is fed by the most distal purely conducting airway. Different hypotheses exist on how the fine structure of the acinus changes ...

DUX-family transcription factors regulate zygotic genome activation in placental mammals

Didier Trono, Evaristo Jose Planet Letschert, Julien Léonard Duc, Sonia Verp, Andrea Coluccio, Alberto De Iaco

In animal embryos, transcription is mostly silent for several cell divisions, until the release of the first major wave of embryonic transcripts through so-called zygotic genome activation (ZGA). Maternally provided ZGA-triggering factors have been identif ...

Clobetasol propionate causes immunosuppression in zebrafish (Danio rerio) at environmentally relevant concentrations

Kristin Schirmer, Anita Orsolya Hidasi

Synthetic glucocorticoids (GCs) are potential endocrine disrupting compounds that have been detected in the aquatic environment around the world in the low ng/L (nanomolar) range. GCs are used as immunosuppressants in medicine. It is of high interest wheth ...

Control of Hoxd gene transcription in the mammary bud by hijacking a preexisting regulatory landscape

Denis Duboule, Jozsef Zakany, Guillaume Andrey, Leonardo Beccari, Anamaria Necsulea, Edgardo Rodriguez Carballo, Virginie Marcet

Vertebrate Hox genes encode transcription factors operating during the development of multiple organs and structures. However, the evolutionary mechanism underlying this remarkable pleiotropy remains to be fully understood. Here, we show that Hoxd8 and Hox ...

From the Cover: Zebrafish Larvae Are Insensitive to Stimulation by Cocaine: Importance of Exposure Route and Toxicokinetics

Kristin Schirmer, Julita Maria Stadnicka-Michalak

Zebrafish (Danio rerio) larvae have been suggested as vertebrate model to complement or even replace mammals for rapidly assessing behavioral effects of psychoactive drugs. Yet, divergent responses have been reported in mammals and fish despite the conserv ...

Mechanisms Underlying the Neuromodulation of Spinal Circuits for Correcting Gait and Balance Deficits after Spinal Cord Injury

Silvestro Micera, Grégoire Courtine, Eduardo Martin Moraud, Marco Capogrosso, Nikolaus Wenger, Emanuele Formento

Epidural electrical stimulation of lumbar segments facilitates standing and walking in animal models and humans with spinal cord injury. However, the mechanisms through which this neuromodulation therapy engages spinal circuits remain enigmatic. Using comp ...

Hotair Is Dispensible for Mouse Development

Denis Duboule, Anamaria Necsulea

Despite the crucial importance of Hox genes functions during animal development, the mechanisms that control their transcription in time and space are not yet fully understood. In this context, it was proposed that Hotair, a lncRNA transcribed from within ...

Friction and damping of a compliant foot based on granular jamming for legged robots

Auke Ijspeert, Simon Lukas Hauser, Peter Eckert, Alexandre Tuleu

Moving away from simple foot designs of current quadruped robots towards a more bio-inspired approach, a novel foot design was implemented on the quadruped robot Oncilla. These feet mimic soft paw-pads of dogs and cats with high traction and soft underlyin ...

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

Auke Ijspeert, Ludovic Righetti

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 ...
