Semi-automatic 3D morphological reconstruction of neurons with densely branching morphology: Application to retinal All amacrine cells imaged with multi -photon excitation microscopy

Bas-Jan Zandt

Background: Accurate reconstruction of the morphology of single neurons is important for morphometric studies and for developing compartmental models. However, manual morphological reconstruction can be extremely time-consuming and error-prone and algorith ...

Image reproduction with compensation of luminance adaptation

Mahmut Sami Arpa

We introduce an image reproduction model that retargets colors for printing purposes to ensure similar luminance perception under photopic and scotopic vision. Our model is based on the physiological functioning of the rod and cone cells in the retina in v ...

Overcoming the resolution limit in retinal imaging using the scattering properties of the sclera

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Dino Carpentras, Timothé Laforest

In-vivo imaging of the eye's fundus is widely used to study eye's health. State of the art Adaptive Optics devices can resolve features up to a lateral resolution of 1.5 um. This resolution is still above what is needed to observe subcellular structures su ...

JNK Inhibition Reduced Retinal Ganglion Cell Death after Ischemia/Reperfusion In Vivo and after Hypoxia In Vitro

Tatiana Favez

Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) are key regulators that have been linked to cell survival and death. Among the main classes of MAPKs, c-jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) has been shown to mediate cell stress responses associated with apoptosis. In Vitr ...

Nonlinear Hebbian Learning as a Unifying Principle in Receptive Field Formation

Wulfram Gerstner

The development of sensory receptive fields has been modeled in the past by a variety of models including normative models such as sparse coding or independent component analysis and bottom-up models such as spike-timing dependent plasticity or the Bienen- ...

Long-Term Single Cell Analysis of S. pombe on a Microfluidic Microchemostat Array

Sebastian Maerkl, Jean-Bernard Nobs

Although Schyzosaccharomyces pombe is one of the principal model organisms for studying the cell cycle, surprisingly few methods have characterized S. pombe growth on the single cell level, and no methods exist capable of analyzing thousands of cells and t ...

Synaptic and cellular organization of layer 1 of the developing rat somatosensory cortex

Henry Markram, Shruti Muralidhar, Yun Wang

Layer 1 of the neocortex is sparsely populated with neurons and heavily innervated by fibers from lower layers and proximal and distal brain regions. Understanding the potential functions of this layer requires a comprehensive understanding of its cellular ...

ERK1/2 pathway is activated in degenerated Rpe65-deficient mice

The MAPK family is composed of three majors kinases, JNK, p38 and ERK1/2, and is implicated in many degenerative processes, including retinal cell death. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the activation of ERK1/2 kinase, and its potential role in Mu ...

Angiogenesis inhibition by the maleimide-based small molecule GNX-686

Hubert van den Bergh, Georges Wagnières, Patrycja Nowak-Sliwinska

We investigated the anti-angiogenic properties of GNX-686, a newly identified maleimide-based small molecule. In vitro studies on HUVEC showed that GNX-686 inhibited cell growth with an ED50 of 20-25 mu M, while human HeLa tumor cells and non-transformed e ...

Zebrafish hmx1 promotes retinogenesis

Ocular development is controlled by a complex network of transcription factors, cell cycle regulators, and diffusible signaling molecules. Together, these molecules regulate cell proliferation, apoptosis and specify retinal fate. In the zebrafish (Danio re ...
