Recombinant therapeutic proteins produced in mammalian cells represent a major class of biopharmaceuticals. In recent years, their demand has increased dramatically and is now driving the development of a variety of improvements to maximize their expressio ...
Epidermis is the outermost layer of the skin and is in direct contact with the external environment, requiring keratinocyte stem cells to adapt constantly. Recently, our laboratory has put forward the role of mTOR in temperature-mediated keratinocyte stem ...
Human neural progenitor cells (hNPCs) have been proposed as a potential source of cells for ex vivo gene therapy. In this pilot study, three 5-year-old female cynomolgus monkeys received a single intracarotid infusion of MPTP, followed 1 week later by MRI- ...
The quaternary β-carbolinium alkaloid nostocarboline from the cyanobacterium Nostoc 78-12A and ten bis-cationic dimeric derivatives were evaluated against four protozoan parasites and low micromolar values against Trypanosoma brucei, submicromolar values a ...
Primary cell lines are more difficult to transfect when compared to immortalized/transformed cell lines, and hence new techniques are required to enhance the transfection efficiency in these cells. We isolated and established primary cultures of synoviocyt ...
Thymic T cell lineage commitment is dependent on Notch1 (N1) receptor-mediated signaling. Although the physiological ligands that interact with N1 expressed on thymic precursors are currently unknown, in vitro culture systems point to Delta-like 1 (DL1) an ...
Drug-inducible systems allowing the control of transgene expression and knockdown in mammalian cells are invaluable tools for genetic research, and could also play important roles in translational research or gene therapy. We and others have developed a le ...
Asymmetric cell division is fundamental for generating diversity in multicellular organisms. The mechanisms that govern asymmetric cell division are increasingly well understood, owing notably to studies that were conducted in Drosophila melanogaster and C ...
Hes1, a major target gene in Notch signaling, regulates the fate and differentiation of various cell types in many developmental systems. To gain a novel insight into the role of Hes1 in corneal tissue, we performed gain-of-function and loss-of-function st ...
We introduce bounded asynchrony, a notion of concurrency tailored to the modeling of biological cell-cell interactions. Bounded asynchrony is the result of a scheduler that bounds the number of steps that one process gets ahead of other processes; this all ...
