Alpha-Synuclein oligomerization and aggregation: All models are useful but only if we know what they model This is the reply to a comment "Alpha-synuclein oligomerization and aggregation: A model will always be a model" on the original article "Monitoring alpha-synuclein oligomerization and aggregation using bimolecular fluorescence complementation assays: What you see is not always what you get". The articles are accompanied by a Preface "How good are cellular models?".

Hilal Lashuel

Alpha-synuclein oligomerization is one of the early events on the pathway to Lewy body formation. Therefore, interfering with this process holds tremendous potential for developing therapies that block alpha-Syn pathology formation and toxicity. The develo ...

Linear triglycerol-based fluorosurfactants show high potential for droplet-microfluidics-based biochemical assays

Esther Amstad, Irvine Lian Hao Ong, Abhishek Kumar Singh

Fluorosurfactants have expanded the landscape of high-value biochemical assays in microfluidic droplets, but little is known about how the spatial geometries and polarity of the head group contribute to the performance of fluorosurfactants. To decouple thi ...

Planar hydrodynamic traps and buried channels for bead and cell trapping and releasing

Philippe Renaud, Arnaud Bertsch, Daniel Migliozzi, Clémentine Sophie Sarah Lipp, Jonathan Bastien Cottet

We present a novel concept for the controlled trapping and releasing of beads and cells in a PDMS microfluidic channel without obstacles present around the particle or in the channel. The trapping principle relies on a two-level microfluidic configuration: ...
