Microfluidic device performing on flow study of serial cell–cell interactions of two cell populations

Philippe Renaud, George Coukos, Margaux Catherine Marie Duchamp, Thamani Dahoun, Alexandre Harari, Marion Arnaud

In this study we present a novel microfluidic hydrodynamic trapping device to probe the cell–cell interaction between all cell samples of two distinct populations. We have exploited an hydrodynamic trapping method using microfluidics to immobilize a batch ...

Temperature-Controlled Masking/Unmasking of Cell-Adhesive Cues with Poly(ethylene glycol) Methacrylate Based Brushes

Harm-Anton Klok, Solenne Desseaux

Thin, thermoresponsive polymer coatings that allow to reversibly modulate cell adhesion and detachment are attractive substrates for cell sheet engineering. Usually, this is accomplished by applying thin poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) coatings, which ...

Microfluidics for in vitro biomimetic shear stress-dependent leukocyte adhesion assays

Elena Bianchi

Recruitment of leukocytes from blood to tissues is a multi-step process playing a major role in the activation of inflammatory responses. Tethering and rolling of leukocytes along the vessel wall, followed by arrest and transmigration through the endotheli ...

Attomolar protein detection using a magnetic bead surface coverage assay

Martinus Gijs, Matteo Cornaglia, Hüseyin Cumhur Tekin

We demonstrate a microfluidic method for ultra-sensitive protein detection in serum. First, ‘large’ (2.8 μm) antibody-functionalized magnetic beads specifically capture antigen from a serum matrix under active microfluidic mixing. Subsequently, the large b ...

Photodynamic drug delivery enhancement in tumours does not depend on leukocyte-endothelial interaction in a human mesothelioma xenograft model

Hubert van den Bergh, Elodie Debefve, Hans-Anton Lehr

OBJECTIVES: The pre-treatment of tumour neovessels by low-level photodynamic therapy (PDT) improves the distribution of concomitantly administered systemic chemotherapy. The mechanism by which PDT permeabilizes the tumour vessel wall is only partially know ...

Transduction of Glycan-Lectin Binding Using Near-Infrared Fluorescent Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes for Glycan Profiling

Ardemis Anoush Boghossian

There is significant interest in developing new detection platforms for characterizing glycosylated proteins, despite the lack of easily synthesized model glycans or high affinity receptors for this anal. problem. In this work, the authors demonstrate a se ...

Transmural flow modulates cell and fluid transport functions of lymphatic endothelium

Melody Swartz, Witold Waldemar Kilarski, Joseph Rutkowski, James Brandon Dixon, Dimana Miteva

RATIONALE: Lymphatic transport of peripheral interstitial fluid and dendritic cells (DCs) is important for both adaptive immunity and maintenance of tolerance to self-antigens. Lymphatic drainage can change rapidly and dramatically on tissue injury or infl ...

FcRgamma activation regulates inflammation-associated squamous carcinogenesis

Michele De Palma, Ferdinando Pucci

Chronically activated leukocytes recruited to premalignant tissues functionally contribute to cancer development; however, mechanisms underlying pro- versus anti-tumor programming of neoplastic tissues by immune cells remain obscure. Using the K14-HPV16 mo ...

Time-dependent alterations of peripheral immune parameters after nigrostriatal dopamine depletion in a rat model of Parkinson's disease

Raphaël Doenlen

Dysfunction of the central dopaminergic system is associated with neurodegenerative disorders and mental illnesses such as Parkinson's disease and schizophrenia. Patients suffering from these diseases were reported to exhibit altered immune functions compa ...

A Spätzle-processing enzyme required for toll signaling activation in Drosophila innate immunity

Bruno Lemaitre

The Toll receptor was originally identified as an indispensable molecule for Drosophila embryonic development and subsequently as an essential component of innate immunity from insects to humans. Although in Drosophila the Easter protease processes the pro ...
