Neural commitment of embryonic stem cells: molecules, pathways and potential for cell therapy

The study of neuronal differentiation of embryonic stem cells has raised major interest over recent years. It allows a better understanding of fundamental aspects of neurogenesis and, at the same time, the generation of neurons as tools for various applica ...

Impact of Lateral Nonuniform Doping and Hot Carrier Injection on Capacitance Behavior of High Voltage MOSFETs

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Michel Declercq, Yogesh Singh Chauhan

A detailed analysis of capacitance behavior of high-voltage MOSFET (HV-MOS), for example, LDMOS, using device simulation is made. The impact of lateral nonuniform doping and drift region are separately analyzed. It is shown that the peaks in C-GD and C-GS ...

Amphiregulin is an essential mediator of estrogen receptor alpha function in mammary gland development

Cathrin Brisken

Most mammary gland development occurs after birth under the control of systemic hormones. Estrogens induce mammary epithelial cell proliferation during puberty via epithelial estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha) by a paracrine mechanism. Epidermal growth fact ...

Combination therapy using aspirin-enhanced photodynamic selective drug delivery

Hubert van den Bergh, Elodie Debefve

In photodynamic therapy (PDT), excitation of a drug by light leads to a cascade of biochemical processes that can cause closure of blood vessels. It has been observed clinically that significant short-term leakage from the irradiated vasculature can occur ...

Alveolar and lactogenic differentiation

Cathrin Brisken, Renuga Devi Rajaram

The mouse mammary gland is a complex tissue that proliferates and differentiates under the control of systemic hormones during puberty, pregnancy and lactation. Once a highly branched milk duct system has been established, during mid/late pregnancy, alveol ...

Local delivery of bisphosphonate from coated orthopedic implants increases implants mechanical stability in osteoporotic rats

Dominique Pioletti, Randoald Müller, Bastian Peter

Patients with osteoporosis and joint disabilities represent a constant growing and challenging population to be treated in the musculoskeletal clinical field. Especially in the case of total hip arthroplasty, new solutions should be developed to compensate ...

Adipose tissue expression of the lipid droplet-associating proteins S3-12 and perilipin is controlled by peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma

Johan Auwerx, Kristina Schoonjans

In a systematic search for peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-gamma) target genes, we identified S3-12 and perilipin as novel direct PPAR-gamma target genes. Together with adipophilin and tail-interacting protein of 47 kDa, these genes ...

Photodynamic endometrial ablation: Morphological study

Georges Wagnières

Background and Objectives Endometriumablation provides an alternative treatment modality to hysterectomy for dysfunctional uterine bleeding (DUB). Its feasibility was demonstrated in animal studies. The purpose of this study was the evaluation of histol ...

Hormonal control of alveolar development and its implications for breast carcinogenesis

Cathrin Brisken

During puberty and pregnancy, the breast undergoes major restructuring in order to produce a structure that can secrete and eject copious amounts of milk. By analogy to other branched organs such as the lung or the salivary gland, a large increase in surfa ...

The problems of delivering neuroactive molecules to the CNS

Patrick Aebischer

At present, the aetiologies of many neurological and neurodegenerative diseases are unknown. However, emergence of a better understanding of these diseases, at both cellular and molecular levels, opens up the possibility of replacement therapies. The prese ...
