Prototyping and Experimental Analysis of Active Offloading Footwear for Patients With Diabetes Using an Array of Magnetorheological Fluid–Based Modules

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Paolo Germano, Bhawnath Tiwari

Diabetic foot ulceration is a serious challenge worldwide which imposes an immense risk of lower extremity amputation and in many cases may lead to the death. The presented work focuses on the offloading requirements using an active approach and considers ...

Low-Dose Prostate Cancer Brachytherapy with Radioactive Palladium-Gold Nanoparticles

Marc-André Fortin

Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the leading causes of death among men. Low-dose brachytherapy is an increasingly used treatment for PCa, which requires the implantation of tens of radioactive seeds. This treatment causes discomfort; these implants cannot b ...

Sirtuin 2 Deficiency Increases Bacterial Phagocytosis by Macrophages and Protects from Chronic Staphylococcal Infection

Johan Auwerx, Tytti Heinonen, Marc Pfefferlé

Sirtuin 2 (SIRT2) is one of the seven members of the family of NAD(+)-dependent histone deacetylases. Sirtuins target histones and non-histone proteins according to their subcellular localization, influencing various biological processes. SIRT2 resides mai ...

Immune Antibodies and Helminth Products Drive CXCR2-Dependent Macrophage-Myofibroblast Crosstalk to Promote Intestinal Repair

Duncan-Bruce Sutherland, Nicola Harris, Benjamin John Marsland, Beatrice Volpe, Julia Esser-von Bieren, Jérôme Bürgi

Helminth parasites can cause considerable damage when migrating through host tissues, thus making rapid tissue repair imperative to prevent bleeding and bacterial dissemination particularly during enteric infection. However, how protective type 2 responses ...

Heparin-binding domain of fibrin(ogen) binds growth factors and promotes tissue repair when incorporated within a synthetic matrix

Matthias Lütolf, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Mikaël Martino, Priscilla Suhasna Maithili Briquez, Adrian Ranga

By binding growth factors (GFs), the ECM tightly regulates their activity. We recently reported that the heparin-binding domain II of fibronectin acts as a promiscuous high-affinity GF-binding domain. Here we hypothesized that fibrin, the provisional ECM d ...
