The circadian clock time tunes axonal regeneration

Nerve injuries cause permanent neurological disability due to limited axonal regeneration. Injury-dependent and-independent mechanisms have provided important insight into neuronal regeneration, however, common denominators underpinning regeneration remain ...

Mice with humanized livers reveal the role of hepatocyte clocks in rhythmic behavior

Cédric Gobet, Sylviane Métairon, Frédéric Bruno Martin Gachon, Benjamin Dieter Weger

The synchronization of circadian clock depends on a central pacemaker located in the suprachiasmatic nuclei. However, the potential feedback of peripheral signals on the central clock remains poorly characterized. To explore whether peripheral organ circad ...

Incomplete Recovery of Zebrafish Retina Following Cryoinjury

Dylan Lawless

Zebrafish show an extraordinary potential for regeneration in several organs from fins to central nervous system. Most impressively, the outcome of an injury results in a near perfect regeneration and a full functional recovery. Indeed, among the various i ...

Global brain dynamics under visual entrainment

David Pascucci, Maëlan Quentin Menétrey

Cognitive and perceptual functions depend on the momentary dynamics of the brain. A typical approach to investigate these dynamics is through the so-called method of entrainment. In entrainment, a rhythmic stimulation (e.g., a periodic visual or auditory s ...

Development of a new visual prosthesis for preclinical studies on artificial vision

Marta Jole Ildelfonsa Airaghi Leccardi

The technological evolution in materials science and microengineering favored the production of advanced visual prostheses useful for fighting blindness and to improve patients quality of life. Visual prostheses aim at replacing lost visual functions by ar ...

Capacitive-like photovoltaic epiretinal stimulation enhances and narrows the network-mediated activity of retinal ganglion cells by recruiting the lateral inhibitory network

Diego Ghezzi, Marta Jole Ildelfonsa Airaghi Leccardi, Naïg Aurelia Ludmilla Chenais

Photovoltaic retinal prostheses theoretically offer the possibility of a standalone high-resolution electrical stimulation of the retina. However, achieving focused epiretinal stimulation is particularly challenging, because of axonal activation and electr ...

Upper stimulation threshold for retinal ganglion cell activation

Diego Ghezzi

Objective. The existence of an upper threshold in electrically stimulated retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) is of interest because of its relevance to the development of visual prosthetic devices, which are designed to restore partial sight to blind patients. ...

Semi-automatic 3D morphological reconstruction of neurons with densely branching morphology: Application to retinal All amacrine cells imaged with multi -photon excitation microscopy

Bas-Jan Zandt

Background: Accurate reconstruction of the morphology of single neurons is important for morphometric studies and for developing compartmental models. However, manual morphological reconstruction can be extremely time-consuming and error-prone and algorith ...

System, method and apparatus for retinal absorption phase and dark field imaging with oblique illumination

Christophe Moser, Timothé Laforest, Mathieu Künzi, Dino Carpentras

A method for imaging a tissue of an eye, the method including the steps of providing oblique illumination to the eye by a plurality of light emitting areas of a light delivery device, the plurality of light emitting areas being independently controllable a ...

Unified framework to evaluate non-visual spectral effectiveness of light for human health

Marilyne Andersen, María Lovísa Ámundadóttir, Steven W. Lockley

The discovery of a novel non-rod, non-cone photoreceptor in the mammalian eye that mediates a range of ‘non-visual’ responses to light has required reexamination of how lighting needs for human health are characterized and evaluated. Existing literature pr ...
