Role of the RNA-binding protein Bicaudal-C1 and interacting factors in cystic kidney diseases

Daniel Constam, Benjamin Marcel Daniel Rothé, Céline Gagnieux, Lucía Carolina Leal Esteban

Polycystic kidneys frequently associate with mutations in individual components of cilia, basal bodies or centriolar satellites that perturb complex protein networks. In this review, we focus on the RNA-binding protein Bicaudal-C1 (BICC1) which was found m ...

Intraductal patient-derived xenografts of estrogen receptor α-positive breast cancer recapitulate the histopathological spectrum and metastatic potential of human lesions

Cathrin Brisken, Georgios Sflomos, Ayyakkannu Ayyanan, Laura Battista, Maryse Fiche, Valentina Scabia, Patrik Aouad, Valérian Charles Robert Dormoy

Estrogen receptor α-positive (ER-positive) or 'luminal' breast cancers were notoriously difficult to establish as patient-derived xenografts (PDXs). We and others recently demonstrated that the microenvironment is critical for ER-positive tumor cells; when ...

Enhanced Rate of Acquisition of Point Mutations in Mouse Intestinal Adenomas Compared to Normal Tissue

Paloma Ordonez Moran

The most prevalent single-nucleotide substitution (SNS) found in cancers is a C-to-T substitution in the CpG motif. It has been proposed that many of these SNSs arise during organismal aging, prior to transformation of a normal cell into a precancerous/can ...

Bicaudal C1 promotes pancreatic NEUROG3+ endocrine progenitor differentiation and ductal morphogenesis

Daniel Constam, Jacques Rougemont, Anne Grapin-Botton, Joan Goulley, Laurence Anne E Lemaire, Yung Hae Kim

In human, mutations in bicaudal C1 (BICC1), an RNA binding protein, have been identified in patients with kidney dysplasia. Deletion of Bicc1 in mouse leads to left-right asymmetry randomization and renal cysts. Here, we show that BICC1 is also expressed i ...

Detecting small lung tumors in mouse models by refractive-index microradiology

Giorgio Margaritondo

Refractive-index (phase-contrast) radiology was able to detect lung tumors less than 1 mm in live mice. Significant micromorphology differences were observed in the microradiographs between normal, inflamed, and lung cancer tissues. This was made possible ...

Bladder cancer detection by fluorescence imaging with Hexvix®: Analysis and processing of images obtained during high magnification cystoscopy

Hubert van den Bergh, Georges Wagnières, Blaise Lovisa

Fluorescence cystoscopy has been recently acknowledged as a useful method to detect early superficial bladder cancer, even flat lesions. After the instillation of hexaminolevulinic acid (Hexvix®) in the bladder for about an hour, photoactivable porphyrins ...

3D optical diffraction tomography in thick highly scattering media using diffuse photon density waves

Near InfraRed (NIR) frequency-domain techniques are promising clinical imaging tools, due to their ability in providing metabolic information about healthy and cancerous abnormalities (tumours, cysts, haematomas, etc.) embedded in thick biological highly d ...
