Novel High-Throughput Fluorescence-Based Assay for the Identification of Nematocidal Compounds That Target the Blood-Feeding Pathway

Gerardo Turcatti, Marc Chambon, Anthony Marchand, Nicola Harris, Tiffany Babette Angélique Bouchery, Mati André Marie Moyat

Hookworm infections cause a neglected tropical disease (NTD) affecting ~740 million people worldwide, principally those living in disadvantaged communities. Infections can cause high morbidity due to their impact on nutrient uptake and their need to feed o ...

The FDA-Approved Drug Nelfinavir Inhibits Lytic Cell-Free but Not Cell-Associated Nonlytic Transmission of Human Adenovirus

Gerardo Turcatti, Fabien Kuttler

Adenoviruses (AdVs) are prevalent and give rise to chronic and re-current disease. Human AdV (HAdV) species B and C, such as HAdV-C2, -C5, and-B14, cause respiratory disease and constitute a health threat for immunocom-promised individuals. HAdV-Cs are wel ...

Elastomer-based pneumatic device to measure the mechanical properties of cell monolayers

Francesca Sorba

Everyday life physiological functions such as breathing, muscle contraction, and blood circulation rely on the ability of single cells to organize into higher complexity structures and sustain mechanical deformations. Cell monolayers are the simplest tissu ...

Quantification of stored red blood cell fluctuations by time-lapse holographic cell imaging

Gerardo Turcatti, Benjamin Rappaz, Pierre Marquet, Michel Prudent, Manon Sandra Bardyn

We propose methods to quantitatively calculate the fluctuation rate of red blood cells with nanometric axial and millisecond temporal sensitivity at the single-cell level by using time-lapse holographic cell imaging. For this quantitative analysis, cell me ...

De novo identification of lipid II binding lipopeptides with antibacterial activity against vancomycin-resistant bacteria

Inmaculada Rentero Rebollo

Creative strategies for identifying new antibiotics are essential to addressing the looming threat of a post-antibiotic era. We here report the use of a targeted peptide phage display screen as a means of generating novel antimicrobial lipopeptides. Specif ...

An electrochemical sensor for quantitative analysis of Rhesus D antibodies in blood

Giovanni De Micheli, Sandro Carrara, Irene Taurino, Francesca Criscuolo, Tugba Kilic

The Hemolytic Disease of the Fetus and Newborn (HDFN), if untreated, can have severe consequences on baby’s health, eventually causing death. Prevention and diagnosis of pregnancies at risk of HDFN consists in quantitative analysis in hospital every 2-4 we ...

Automated tracking of temporal displacements of a red blood cell obtained by time-lapse digital holographic microscopy

Benjamin Rappaz

Red blood cell (RBC) phase images that are numerically reconstructed by digital holographic microscopy (DHM) can describe the cell structure and dynamics information beneficial for a quantitative analysis of RBCs. However, RBCs investigated with time-lapse ...

Insight into the evolution and origin of leprosy bacilli from the genome sequence of Mycobacterium lepromatosis

Stewart Cole, Andrej Benjak, Charlotte Avanzi, Philippe Busso, Pushpendra Singh

Mycobacterium lepromatosis is an uncultured human pathogen associated with diffuse lepromatous leprosy and a reactional state known as Lucio's phenomenon. By using deep sequencing with and without DNA enrichment, we obtained the near-complete genome sequen ...

Microstructural influence on the scatter in the fatigue life of steel reinforcement bars

Alain Nussbaumer, Marina Rocha Pinto Portela Nunes

Fatigue damage accumulation and failure of steel reinforcement bars (rebars) is a stochastic process. Scatter can be influenced by the sensitivity of the short crack growth to the microstructural features, especially near the fatigue limit. This work inves ...

Orphan nuclear receptor TR3 acts in autophagic cell death via mitochondrial signaling pathway

Yi Zhang, Friedrich Beermann, Jie Zhang, Yuan Liu, Qian Zhang, Li Li, Ang Li, Ping Chen, Bo Zhou, Rong Wu

Autophagy is linked to cell death, yet the associated mechanisms are largely undercharacterized. We discovered that melanoma, which is generally resistant to drug-induced apoptosis, can undergo autophagic cell death with the participation of orphan nuclear ...
