The invention relates to a device for dispensing droplets comprising a first channel (8, 10), known as the main channel, for circulating a first liquid flow, a second channel (12, 13) for circulating fluid, forming an intersection area (27) with the first ...
Among the molecular mechanisms that control the cell division cycle, proteolysis has emerged as a key regulatory process enabling cells to pass critical check points. Such proteolysis involves a cascade of enzymes including a multisubunit complex termed 26 ...

Neurotrophic factors which act on motor neurons may provide an efficient treatment for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. In order to overcome the difficulty of administering proteins into the central nervous system, it is possible to use a gene therapy approa ...
Notch1 signaling is required for T cell development and has been implicated in fate decisions in the thymus. We showed that Notch1 deletion in progenitor T cells (pro-T cells) revealed their latent developmental potential toward becoming conventional and p ...
The effect of hyperosmolarity on transient recombinant protein production in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells was investigated. Addition of 90 mM NaCl to the production medium ProCHO5 increased the volumetric yield of recombinant antibody up to 4-fold rel ...
Upon encounter of viral Ags in an inflammatory environment, dendritic cells up-regulate costimulatory molecules and the chemokine receptor CCR7, with the latter being pivotal for their migration to the lymph node. By utilizing mice deficient in CCR7, we ha ...
Cells in our tissues are exposed to complex arrays of biochemical and biophysical cues from their protein- and sugar-rich extracellular matrix (ECM). In concert with cell- intrinsic regulatory cascades, these temporally and spatially coordinated signals in ...
In this contribution we present the development of three microfabricated devices for the study of neuronal and cellular networks. Together, these devices form an attractive toolbox, which is useful to stimulate and record signals of both electrical and che ...
A review. The interplay between carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins dets. the stability and flexibility as well as the adhesive and responsive features of the surfaces of all cells. The mol. understanding of the interactions among and between the different ...
Although canonical Notch signaling regulates multiple hematopoietic lineage decisions including T cell and marginal zone B cell fate specification, the downstream molecular mediators of Notch function are largely unknown. We showed here that conditional in ...
