Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by the progressive degeneration of the nigrostriatal dopaminergic system. Brain delivery of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) has been shown to protect and restore the dopaminergic pathway in vario ...
The thesis presented here describes studies of ligand binding, function, and arrangement of ligand-gated ion channels in cell membranes. Fluorescence microscopy and the patch clamp technique are used to investigate the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor and ...
We have measured fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between a fluorescent antagonist, bound to the purified detergent-solubilized serotonin type 3 receptor, and a lipophilic acceptor probe partitioned into the micelle surrounding the detergent-s ...
Two series of novel, four-arm, star-shaped polypeptides were prepared via the ring-opening polymerization of γ-benzyl-L-glutamate N-carboxyanhydride and ε-benzyloxycarbonyl-L-lysine N-carboxyanhydride with a tetra-amino-substituted perylene fluorophore as ...
In this thesis, two different fluorescent labeling techniques for in vivo investigations on the 5-HT3 receptor (5-HT3R) functions are presented. This plasma membrane protein contains five subunits surrounding an ion channel that opens after binding of a 5- ...
A highly-sensitive surface fluorescence technique was combined with a powerful method for the oriented reversible immobilization of membrane proteins on oxide surfaces. Affinity and kinetic parameters of the interaction of the receptor and a fluorescent li ...
We have expressed the 5-HT3 receptor with two transient expression sytems: the Semliki Forest virus and the HEK293EBNA. Both systems allow the rapid expression of functional receptor protein at very high level: up to 107 receptors per cell. Large scale pro ...
It is well established that sensory stimulation results in the activity of multiple functional columns in the neocortex. The manner in which neurones within each column are active in relation to each other is, however, not known. Multiple whole-cell record ...
Neuronal ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase (UCH-L1) has been linked to Parkinson's disease (PD), the progression of certain nonneuronal tumors, and neuropathic pain. Certain lung tumor-derived cell lines express UCH-L1 but it is not expressed in normal lung t ...
The binding of the fluorescein-labeled antagonist GR-flu ([1,2,3,9-tetrahydro-3-[(5-methyl-1H-imidazol-4-yl)methyl]-9-(3-amino- (N-fluoresceinthiocarbamoyl)propyl)-4H-carbazol-4-one]) to a purified, detergent-solubilized ligand-gated ion channel, the type- ...
