Optical cuff for optogenetic control of the peripheral nervous system

Stéphanie Lacour, Grégoire Courtine, Léonie Asboth, Frédéric Pierre Gérald Michoud, Loïc Sottas

Objective. Nerves in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) contain axons with specific motor, somatosensory and autonomic functions. Optogenetics offers an efficient approach to selectively activate axons within the nerve. However, the heterogeneous nature o ...

Minimal Window Duration for Accurate HRV Recording in Athletes

Jean-Marc Vesin, Grégoire Millet, Sasan Yazdani

Heart rate variability (HRV) is non-invasive and commonly used for monitoring responses to training loads, fitness, or overreaching in athletes. Yet, the recording duration for aseries of RR-intervals varies from 1 to 15 min in the literature. The aim of t ...

Modulation of AMPK's activity via genetic tools and food-derived compounds as a novel approach to Parkinson's disease treatment

Wojciech Janusz Bobela

Aging is considered as a major risk factor for Parkinsonâs disease (PD) and can be defined as a gradual decline in the ability of biological systems to efficiently renew structural and functional components, which may lead to perturbations in energetic h ...

Visceral motor neuron diversity delineates a cellular basis for nipple- and pilo-erection muscle control

Gioele La Manno

Despite the variety of physiological and target-related functions, little is known regarding the cellular complexity in the sympathetic ganglion. We explored the heterogeneity of mouse stellate and thoracic ganglia and found an unexpected variety of cell t ...

Detecting motion intention in stroke survivors using autonomic nervous system responses

Roger Gassert, Olivier Lambercy

Individuals with severe neurologic injuries often cannot participate in robotic rehabilitation because they do not retain sufficient residual motor control to initiate the robotic assistance. In these situations, brain- and body-computer interfaces have em ...

Motor execution detection based on autonomic nervous system responses

Roger Gassert, Olivier Lambercy, Martin Wolf, Marie-Christine Fluet, Raphaël Zimmermann

Triggered assistance has been shown to be a successful robotic strategy for provoking motor plasticity, probably because it requires neurologic patients’ active participation to initiate a movement involving their impaired limb. Triggered assistance, howev ...

Increase of arginase activity in old apolipoprotein-E deficient mice under Western diet associated with changes in neurovascular unit

Rafaela Fernandes Da Silva, Jean-Christophe Copin

Aging and atherosclerosis are well-recognized risk factors for cardiac and neurovascular diseases. The Apolipoprotein E deficient (ApoE-/-) mouse on a high-fat diet is a classical model of atherosclerosis, characterized by the presence of atherosclerotic p ...

Stimulation of β₂-adrenergic receptors inhibits calcineurin activity in CD4(+) T cells via PKA-AKAP interaction

Raphaël Doenlen

The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) is able to modulate immune functions via adrenoceptor-dependent mechanisms. Activation of β₂-adrenergic receptors (AR) on CD4(+) T lymphocytes has been shown to inhibit Th1-cytokine production and cell proliferation. He ...

Rat bladder muscle regeneration induced by local delivery of an engineered insulin-like growth factor 1 in fibrin gels

Lirong Yang

Currently, both congenital abnormalities and developmental problems of the bladder in children, and other dysfunctions in adults, require reconstructive surgery. Such correction involves transplant action of native tissues (such as gastrointestinal segment ...
