Clinically compliant cryopreservation of differentiated retinal pigment epithelial cells
Gioele La Manno, Alex Russell Lederer, Cheng Zhao
Background aims: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the most common cause of blindness in elderly patients within developed countries, affecting more than 190 million worldwide. In AMD, the retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cell layer progressively d ...
Elsevier Sci Ltd2024Accessible and highly observable gastrointestinal organoid model systems for studying host-pathogen interactions
Traditional cell cultures have long been fundamental to biological research, offering an alternative to animal models burdened by ethical constraints and procedural intricacies, often lacking relevance to human physiology and disease. Moreover, their inabi ...
EPFL2024Single-cell epigenomic reconstruction of developmental trajectories from pluripotency in human neural organoid systems
Cell fate progression of pluripotent progenitors is strictly regulated, resulting in high human cell diversity. Epigenetic modifications also orchestrate cell fate restriction. Unveiling the epigenetic mechanisms underlying human cell diversity has been di ...
Nature Portfolio2024Fluorescent fatty acid conjugates for live cell imaging of peroxisomes
Luc Reymond, Fabien Kuttler, Milena Maria Schuhmacher, Daria Korotkova, Manon Sandra Bardyn, Triana Amen
Peroxisomes are eukaryotic organelles that are essential for multiple metabolic pathways, including fatty acid oxidation, degradation of amino acids, and biosynthesis of ether lipids. Consequently, peroxisome dysfunction leads to pediatric-onset neurodegen ...
2024The dynamic genetic determinants of increased transcriptional divergence in spermatids
Cis-genetic effects are key determinants of transcriptional divergence in discrete tissues and cell types. However, how cis- and trans-effects act across continuous trajectories of cellular differentiation in vivo is poorly understood. Here, we quantify al ...
Berlin2024Toward universal cell embeddings: integrating single-cell RNA-seq datasets across species with SATURN
Analysis of single-cell datasets generated from diverse organisms offers unprecedented opportunities to unravel fundamental evolutionary processes of conservation and diversification of cell types. However, interspecies genomic differences limit the joint ...
Berlin2024Programming of Multicellular Patterning with Mechano-Chemically Microstructured Cell Niches
Multicellular patterning of stem-cell-derived tissue models is commonly achieved via self-organizing activities triggered by exogenous morphogenetic stimuli. However, such tissue models are prone to stochastic behavior, limiting the reproducibility of cell ...
WILEY2023Deciphering the molecular events leading to the global restoration of the chromatin landscape during mitotic exit
Two fundamental properties of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are their ability to self-renew and differentiate into all somatic cell types. Maintenance of their identity faces major challenges when transitioning through mitosis, as most DNA-binding proteins a ...
EPFL2023Species-specific regulation of XIST by the JPX/FTX orthologs
X chromosome inactivation (XCI) is an essential process, yet it initiates with remarkable diversity in various mammalian species. XIST, the main trigger of XCI, is controlled in the mouse by an interplay of lncRNA genes (LRGs), some of which evolved concom ...
OXFORD UNIV PRESS2023Playing Brains: The Ethical Challenges Posed by Silicon Sentience and Hybrid Intelligence in DishBrain
The convergence of human and artificial intelligence is currently receiving considerable scholarly attention. Much debate about the resulting Hybrid Minds focuses on the integration of artificial intelligence into the human brain through intelligent brain- ...
