Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is a lysophospholipid mediator which activates G protein-coupled sphingosine 1-phosphate receptors and thus evokes a variety of cell and tissue responses including lymphocyte trafficking, endothelial development, integrity, an ...
Studying the complex mechanisms of transducing an extracellular signal across a plasma membrane to initiate an intracellular responce is of fundamental importance for a cell’s function. Transmembrane signaling is the key allowing cells to sense and communi ...
When fluorophores are densely packed in a biological sample, localizing them one at a time is one of the paths to optical super-resolution. Photo Activated Localization Microscopy (PALM) is one of the methods of this burgeoning field that presents a large ...
We present a new method for lysis of single cells in continuous flow, where cells are sequentially trapped, lysed and released in an automatic process. Using optimized frequencies, dielectrophoretic trapping allows exposing cells in a reproducible way to h ...
Alpha-synuclein (ASYN) is a major constituent of the typical protein aggregates observed in several neurodegenerative diseases that are collectively referred to as synucleinopathies. A causal involvement of ASYN in the initiation and progression of neurolo ...
The PhoQP two-component system is a signaling complex essential for bacterial virulence and cationic antimicrobial peptide resistance. PhoQ is the histidine kinase chemoreceptor of this tandem machine and assembles in a homodimer conformation spanning the ...
We propose in this paper an Eulerian finite element approximation of a coupled chemical fluid-structure interaction problem arising in the study of mesoscopic cardiac biomechanics. We simulate the active response of a myocardial cell (here considered as an ...
There is still a need for catchment hydrological and transport models that properly integrate the effects of preferential flows while accounting for differences in velocities and celerities. A modeling methodology is presented here which uses particle trac ...
The 5-hydroxytryptamine 3 receptor (5-HT3R) is a member of the pentameric ligand-gated ion channel (pLGIC) family, that plays an important role in fast signal transduction and cell-cell communication in synapses: They convert a chemical signal from a neuro ...
Cellular signalling is classically investigated by measuring optical or electrical properties of single or populations of living cells. Here we show how cell-derived vesicles can be used for anlaysing transmembrane signalling. The vesicles are derived from ...
