RhoV, a Potential Notch Target Gene in Murine Skin, Does not Play an Essential Role in Epidermis Development and Homeostasis

April Bezdek Pomey

The evolutionarily conserved Notch signaling cascade plays a pivotal role in the regulation of many fundamental processes such as stem cell maintenance, proliferation, and differentiation. Recently, we aimed to identify downstream target genes regulated by ...

Advanced Fluorescence Microscopy to Study Plasma Membrane Protein Dynamics

Joachim Piguet

Membrane protein dynamics is of great importance for living organisms. The precise localization of proteins composing a synapse on the membrane facing a nerve terminus is essential for proper functioning of the nervous system. In muscle fibers, the nicotin ...

Studies on lentiviral-mediated transgenesis

Marc-Olivier Sauvain

Transgenic animals are essential research tools, whether to address basic biological questions or to develop preclinical models of human diseases. Their generation through the injection of naked plasmid DNA into the male pronucleus of a fertilized oocyte h ...

Tissue engineering of the bladder

Catharina Adelöw

Stem cell use in bladder tissue engineering is a recently addressed area of investigation that has generated excitement as a novel way to restore and regenerate lost or damaged urinary bladder tissue. The remodelling of smooth muscle plays a significant ro ...

Gene expression profiling in cells with enhanced gamma-secretase activity

Alexandra Marie-Isabelle Karoline Brigitte Magold, Patrick Fraering

BACKGROUND: Processing by gamma-secretase of many type-I membrane protein substrates triggers signaling cascades by releasing intracellular domains (ICDs) that, following nuclear translocation, modulate the transcription of different genes regulating a div ...

Miniaturized bioanalytics to probe the function of membrane proteins

Pedro Pascoal

G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the most abundant class of proteins in the cell body. Such receptors are of major interest as potential therapeutic targets. Downscaling and parallelization of bioanalytics opens novel routes to rapidly screen and id ...

Thymic epithelial cells

Paola Bonfanti

As primary lymphoid organ, the thymus provides the essential environment for maturation and selection of functional T lymphocytes. Thymic epithelial (TE) cells derive from the endoderm, and more specifically, from the third pharyngeal pouch. The thymic epi ...

A versatile tool for conditional gene expression and knockdown

Didier Trono, Patrick Aebischer, Marc-Olivier Sauvain

Drug-inducible systems allowing the control of gene expression in mammalian cells are invaluable tools for genetic research, and could also fulfill essential roles in gene- and cell-based therapy. Currently available systems, however, often have limited in ...

Tissue-specific transgenic and knockout mice

Friedrich Beermann

Analysis of genetically engineered mice is crucial for our understanding of the in vivo function of genes and proteins in the whole organism. This includes inactivation of a gene or the generation of specific mutations. The development of knockout and tran ...

Identification of evolutionarily conserved regulatory elements in the mouse Fgf8 locus

Friedrich Beermann, Philipp Bucher

The secreted signaling molecule fibroblast growth factor 8 (Fgf8) is an essential component of certain embryonic signaling centers including the mid-hindbrain (isthmic) organizer, the first branchial arch (BA1), and the apical ectodermal ridge (AER). In th ...
