Real-time Full Field Laser Doppler Imaging
Theo Lasser, Marcel Leutenegger, Tyler Nerton Thacher
We present a full field laser Doppler imaging instrument that enables real-time in vivo assessment of blood flow in dermal tissue and skin. The instrument monitors the blood perfusion in an area of about 50cm2 with 480 x 480 pixels per frame at a rate of 1 ...
Amer Inst Physics2012Early Fate Choice Determines in vivo Engraftment and in vitro Behavior of Epidermal Stem Cells
Regenerative medicine aims at using stem cells to restore or establish lost, damaged, diseased, or aging tissues and organs function. The transplantation of cultured epidermal autograft (CEA) has saved the lives of many burned patients over the last 30 yea ...
EPFL2012Non-stomatal limitations of photosynthesis in grassland species under artificial drought in the field
As drought stress is expected to occur more frequently in future climate in central Europe, survival and productivity of grassland species are an important issue. Non-stomatal limitation processes related to the drought-stress inhibition of photosynthesis ...

2011Increased tolerance of sunflower mutant seedlings to Cd and Zn in hydroponic culture
Jean-Paul Schwitzguebel, Erika Nehnevajova
Cadmium and zinc show similarities in their chemistry, geochemistry and environmental properties. Whereas Cd is a phytotoxic non-essential element, Zn is an essential trace element for plant growth and development. Zinc plays a fundamental role in several ...
2009Understanding engraftment of cultured epidermal stem cells
The epidermis and its appendages protect our body from environmental hazards. Cells generated in the basal layer continuously replace the terminally differentiated keratinocytes that are shed off the epidermal surface. Long-term renewal depends on specific ...
EPFL2008Zebrafish Angiotensin II Receptor-like 1a (agtrl1a) is expressed in migrating hypoblast, vasculature, and in multiple embryonic epithelia
The human gene AGTRL1 is an angiotensin II receptor-like gene expressed in vasculature, which acts as the receptor for the small peptide APELIN, and a co-receptor for Human Immunodeficiency Virus. Mammalian AGTRL1 has been shown to modulate cardiac contrac ...
2007Phytolith types and type-frequencies in subalpine-alpine plant species of the European Alps
Biogenic silica extracted from 21 species commonly occurring in subalpine and alpine plant communities in the central Swiss Alps were examined using light and SEM microscopes; 19 species being screened here for the first time. An inventory of phytolith typ ...
