Analysis of human metabolism by reducing the complexity of the genome-scale models using redHUMAN

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Meriç Ataman, Maria Masid Barcon

Altered metabolism is associated with many human diseases. Human genome-scale metabolic models (GEMs) were reconstructed within systems biology to study the biochemistry occurring in human cells. However, the complexity of these networks hinders a consiste ...

Oestrogen receptor alpha AF-1 and AF-2 domains have cell population-specific functions in the mammary epithelium

Cathrin Brisken, Ayyakkannu Ayyanan, Georgios Sflomos, Dalya Ataca, Valentina Scabia, Stéphanie Cagnet, Patrik Aouad

Oestrogen receptor alpha (ER alpha) is a transcription factor with ligand-independent and ligand-dependent activation functions (AF)-1 and -2. Oestrogens control postnatal mammary gland development acting on a subset of mammary epithelial cells (MECs), ter ...

Microfluidic Patterning of Protein Gradients on Biomimetic Hydrogel Substrates

Matthias Lütolf, Steffen Cosson

This protocol describes a versatile microfluidic method to generate tethered protein gradients of virtually any user-defined shape on biomimetic hydrogel substrates. It can be applied to test, in a microenvironment of physiologically relevant stiffness, ho ...

Proliferation, Morphology, and Pluripotency of Mouse Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells in Three Different Types of Alginate Beads for Mass Production

Yoji Tabata

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are expected to be an ideal cell source for biomedical applications, but such applications usually require a large number of cells. Suspension culture of iPSC aggregates can offer high cell yields but sometimes result ...

Drosophila EGFR pathway coordinates stem cell proliferation and gut remodeling following infection

Bruno Lemaitre, Nichole Broderick, Takayuki Kuraishi

BACKGROUND: Gut homeostasis is central to whole organism health, and its disruption is associated with a broad range of pathologies. Following damage, complex physiological events are required in the gut to maintain proper homeostasis. Previously, we demon ...

Glycogen metabolism as a marker of astrocyte differentiation

Pierre Magistretti, Igor Allaman, Luc Pellerin

Glycogen is a hallmark of mature astrocytes, but its emergence during astrocytic differentiation is unclear. Differentiation of E14 mouse neurospheres into astrocytes was induced with fetal bovine serum (FBS), Leukemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF), or Ciliary N ...

Invasive and indigenous microbiota impact intestinal stem cell activity through multiple pathways in Drosophila

Bruno Lemaitre, Nichole Broderick, Sveta Chakrabarti

Gut homeostasis is controlled by both immune and developmental mechanisms, and its disruption can lead to inflammatory disorders or cancerous lesions of the intestine. While the impact of bacteria on the mucosal immune system is beginning to be precisely u ...

Multiple roles of Notch signaling in the regulation of epidermal development

Freddy Radtke

Recent studies have shown that Notch signaling plays an important role in epidermal development, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. Here, by integrating loss- and gain-of-function studies of Notch receptors and Hes1, we describe molecu ...

Paradigms of notch signaling in mammals

Freddy Radtke, Anne Wilson

Notch proteins regulate a broad spectrum of cell fate decisions and differentiation processes during fetal and postnatal life. These proteins are involved in organogenesis during embryonic development as well as in the maintenance of homeostasis of self-re ...
