Mechanical Properties of Soft Biological Membranes for Organ-on-a-Chip Assessed by Bulge Test and AFM

Georg Fantner, Johann Michler, Veronika Cencen

Advanced in vitro models called “organ-on-a-chip” can mimic the specific cellular environment found in various tissues. Many of these models include a thin, sometimes flexible, membrane aimed at mimicking the extracellular matrix (ECM) scaffold of in vivo ...

90 YEARS OF PROGESTERONE Progesterone receptor signaling in the normal breast and its implications for cancer

Cathrin Brisken, Valentina Scabia

Progesterone is considered as the pregnancy hormone and acts on many different target tissues. Progesterone receptor (PR) signaling is important for normal development and the physiologic function of the breast and impinges on breast carcinogenesis. Both s ...

Surface-confined Electrochemiluminescence Microscopy of Cell Membranes

Andreas Stephan Lesch, Milica Jovic

Herein is reported a surface-confined microscopy based on electrochemiluminescence (ECL) which allows to image the plasma membrane of single cells at the interface with an electrode. By analyzing photoluminescence (PL), ECL and AFM images of mammalian CHO ...

A balancing act between stratification and EMT in cultured human thymic epithelial cells

Matteo Pluchinotta

The thymus is the primary organ for T cell differentiation and maturation. Its stroma forms a characteristic sponge-like 3D structure mainly composed of thymic epithelial cells. Despite of this unconventional epithelial architecture, TECs express markers a ...

Asymmetric Cell Division in the Skin

Wan-Hung Fan

An asymmetric cell division (ACD) is defined as a division that gives rise to two daughter cells with different fates. It is the most common type of division during development. Analogous to Drosophila neuroblasts, proteins involved in ACD such as Insc and ...

Neurogenin3 Initiates Stepwise Delamination of Differentiating Endocrine Cells During Pancreas Development

Anne Grapin-Botton, Mathieu Gouzi, Yung Hae Kim, Keiichi Katsumoto

During development, pancreatic endocrine cells are specified within the pancreatic epithelium. They subsequently delaminate out of the epithelium and cluster in the mesenchyme to form the islets of Langerhans. Neurogenin3 (Ngn3) is a transcription factor r ...

Role of Neurogenin3 in migration of pancreatic endocrine cells during development

Mathieu Gouzi

The pancreas is one of the major organs of the digestive tract. Its endocrine function, mainly regulating glucose blood level, is achieved by endocrine cells. These cells are organized in clusters, the so-called islets of Langerhans. During development, th ...

Antagonistic roles of Notch and p63 in controlling mammary epithelial cell fates

Cathrin Brisken, Maryse Fiche

The breast epithelium has two major compartments, luminal and basal cells, that are established and maintained by poorly understood mechanisms. The p53 homolog, p63, is required for the formation of mammary buds, but its function in the breast after birth ...

Role of the amygdala in antidepressant effects on hippocampal cell proliferation and survival and on depression-like behavior in the rat

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Maria Isabel Cordero Campana, Guillaume Poirier, Cristina Marquez Vega, Jorge Eduardo Castro Cifuentes

The stimulation of adult hippocampal neurogenesis by antidepressants has been associated with multiple molecular pathways, but the potential influence exerted by other brain areas has received much less attention. The basolateral complex of the amygdala (B ...

A novel cell culture approach for tissue engineering based on surface expansion

Hicham Majd

Most tissue engineering approaches include the delivery of reparative cells to a damaged host tissue. Generally these cells are sought to be of a stem cell character since they retain a high potential for proliferation and differentiation into diverse phen ...
