Quantifying electron transfer reactions in biological systems: what interactions play the major role?

Various biological processes involve the conversion of energy into forms that are usable for chemical transformations and are quantum mechanical in nature. Such processes involve light absorption, excited electronic states formation, excitation energy tran ...

Revealing GPCR oligomerization at the single-molecule level through a nanoscopic lens: methods, dynamics and biological function

Aleksandra Radenovic, Paolo Annibale, Marco Scarselli

The introduction of super-resolution fluorescence microscopy has allowed the visualization of single proteins in their biological environment. Recently, these techniques have been applied to determine the organization of class A G-protein-coupled receptors ...

Portable oxidative stress sensor: Dynamic and non-invasive measurements of extracellular H2O2 released by algae

Olivier Martin, Christian Santschi, Volodymyr Koman

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated by aerobic organisms are essential for physiological processes such as cell signaling, apoptosis, immune defense and oxidative stress mechanisms. Unbalanced oxidant/antioxidant budgets are involved in many diseases a ...

Endocrine hormones and local signals during the development of the mouse mammary gland

Cathrin Brisken, Dalya Ataca

Most of mammary gland development occurs postnatally under the control of female reproductive hormones, which in turn interact with other endocrine factors. While hormones impinge on many tissues and trigger very complex biological responses, tissue recomb ...

Direct visualization of dispersed lipid bicontinuous cubic phases by cryo-electron tomography

Cécile Hébert, Davide Demurtas, Paul Guichard, Raffaele Mezzenga

Bulk and dispersed cubic liquid crystalline phases (cubosomes), present in the body and in living cell membranes, are believed to play an essential role in biological phenomena. Moreover, their biocompatibility is attractive for nutrient or drug delivery s ...

A biocompatible "split luciferin" reaction and its application for non-invasive bioluminescent imaging of protease activity in living animals

Aurélien Godinat, Alma Rosa Morales Morales, Ghyslain Martial Alain Budin

The great complexity of many human pathologies, such as cancer, diabetes, and neurodegenerative diseases, requires new tools for studies of biological processes on the whole organism level. The discovery of novel biocompatible reactions has tremendously ad ...

Model Organisms Proteomics-From Holobionts to Human Nutrition

Martin Kussmann

Model organisms are an important tool for the development and validation of analytical approaches for proteomics and for the study of basic mechanisms of biological processes. The Initiative on Model Organism Proteomics (iMOP) organized a session during th ...

Organometallic anticancer agents that interfere with cellular energy processes: a subtle approach to inducing cancer cell death

Paul Joseph Dyson, Rosario Scopelliti, Alexey Nazarov, Mathurin Baquié, Daniel Gardini

Two hybrid compounds comprising an antimetastatic rutheniumarene fragment tethered to an indazole-3-carboxylic acid derivative that inhibits aerobic glycolysis in cancer cells have been prepared and evaluated in a variety of cancer cell lines, including hi ...

The Digestive Tract of Drosophila melanogaster

Bruno Lemaitre

The digestive tract plays a central role in the digestion and absorption of nutrients. Far from being a passive tube, it provides the first line of defense against pathogens and maintains energy homeostasis by exchanging neuronal and endocrine signals with ...
