Ultra-High Sensitivity Silicon Nanowire Array Biosensor Based on a Constant-Current Method for Continuous Real-Time pH and Protein Monitoring in Interstitial Fluid

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Ali Saeidi, Yann Christophe Sprunger, Luca Capua

In this paper we demonstrate ultra-high sensitivity silicon nanowires pH and protein sensing on the same Silicon nanowire array platform by using a constant current method and monitoring the drain voltage as function of analyte concentration. The injected ...

Label-Free C-Reactive Protein Si Nanowire FET Sensor Arrays With Super-Nernstian Back-Gate Operation

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Yann Christophe Sprunger, Luca Capua, Felix Risch, Ron Gill, Aristea Grammoustianou

We present a CMOS-compatible double gate and label-free C-reactive protein (CRP) sensor, based on silicon on insulator (SOI) silicon nanowires arrays. We exploit a reference subtracted detection method and a super-Nernstian internal amplification given by ...

Tumor-associated factors are enriched in lymphatic exudate compared to plasma in metastatic melanoma patients

Davide Demurtas, Melody Swartz, Romain Hamelin, Lambert Charles François Potin, Patricia Corthésy Henrioud, Natacha Anne-Sophie Bordry, Maria Anna Sofia Broggi, Léa Maillat, Alexandre Harari

Liquid biopsies allow monitoring of cancer progression and detection of relapse, but reliable biomarkers in melanoma are lacking. Because secreted factors preferentially drain to lymphatic vessels before dilution in the blood, we hypothesized that lymph sh ...

Inherent biomechanical traits enable infective filariae to disseminate through collecting lymphatic vessels

Melody Swartz, Marco Pisano, Witold Waldemar Kilarski

Filariases are diseases caused by arthropod-borne filaria nematodes. The related pathologies depend on the location of the infective larvae when their migration, the asymptomatic and least studied phase of the disease, comes to an end. To determine factors ...

Experimental Drainage Device to Reduce Lymphoedema in a Rat Model

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Marco Pisano, Melody Swartz, Valentina Triacca

Objective: Despite recent advances in pharmacological research and microsurgery, lymphoedema remains an incurable disease that deeply affects quality of life. There is an urgent need for innovative approaches to restore continuous lymph flow in affected ti ...

Multiple roles of lymphatic vessels in peripheral lymph node development

Borja Prat Luri, Esther Bovay, Ann-Helen Willrodt

The mammalian lymphatic system consists of strategically located lymph nodes (LNs) embedded into a lymphatic vascular network. Mechanisms underlying development of this highly organized system are not fully understood. Using highresolution imaging, we show ...

Lymphatic vessel density is associated with CD8(+) T cell infiltration and immunosuppressive factors in human melanoma

Melody Swartz, Olivier Michielin, Manuel Andreas Fankhauser, Timothy Murray, Natacha Anne-Sophie Bordry, Maria Anna Sofia Broggi, Esther Danenberg

Increased density of tumor-associated lymphatic vessels correlates with poor patient survival in melanoma and other cancers, yet lymphatic drainage is essential for initiating an immune response. Here we asked whether and how lymphatic vessel density (LVD) ...

Chemo-manipulation of tumor blood vessels by a metal-based anticancer complex enhances antitumor therapy

Paul Joseph Dyson, Hubert van den Bergh, Tina Riedel

Human pleural mesothelioma is an incurable and chemoresistant cancer. Using a nude mouse xenograft model of human pleural mesothelioma, we show that RAPTA-T, a compound undergoing preclinical evaluation, enhances tumor vascular function by decreasing blood ...
