Kidney-Specific CAP1/Prss8-Deficient Mice Maintain ENaC-Mediated Sodium Balance through an Aldosterone Independent Pathway

The serine protease prostasin (CAP1/Prss8, channel-activating protease-1) is a confirmed in vitro and in vivo activator of the epithelial sodium channel ENaC. To test whether proteolytic activity or CAP1/Prss8 abundance itself are required for ENaC activat ...

Extreme points in non-positive curvature

Nicolas Monod

A natural analogue of the Krein-Milman theorem is shown to fail for CAT(0) spaces. ...

Actions of amenable equivalence relations on CAT(0) fields

Martin Anderegg, Philippe Paul Antoine Henry

We present the general notion of Borel fields of metric spaces and show some properties of such fields. Then we make the study specific to the Borel fields of proper CAT(0) spaces and we show that the standard tools we need behave in a Borel way. We also i ...

Fixed points and amenability in non-positive curvature

Nicolas Monod

Consider a proper cocompact CAT(0) space X. We give a complete algebraic characterisation of amenable groups of isometries of X. For amenable discrete subgroups, an even narrower description is derived, implying Q-linearity in the torsion-free case. We est ...

A lattice in more than two Kac–Moody groups is arithmetic

Nicolas Monod

Let Gamma be an irreducible lattice in a product of n infinite irreducible complete Kac–Moody groups of simply laced type over finite fields. We show that if n>2, then each Kac–Moody groups is in fact a simple algebraic group over a local field and Gamma i ...

Dwarf Galaxies and Galaxy Halos

Martin Tafelmeyer

The various projects presented in this thesis contribute to the expansion of our knowledge and understanding of the fundamental processes involved in the formation of a galaxy and its stellar populations. For this purpose, two different techniques are appl ...

Arithmeticity vs. non-linearity for irreducible lattices

Nicolas Monod

We establish an arithmeticity vs. non-linearity alternative for irreducible lattices in suitable product groups, such as for instance products of topologically simple groups. This applies notably to (a large class of) Kac–Moody groups. The alternative reli ...

Acute stress-induced impairment of spatial memory is associated with decreased expression of neural cell adhesion molecule in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez

BACKGROUND: There is an extensive literature describing how stress disturbs cognitive processing and can exacerbate psychiatric disorders. There is, however, an insufficient understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in stress effects on brain and ...

Nonstructural protein of parvoviruses B19 and minute virus of mice controls transcription

Peter Martin Beard

The genome of the human parvovirus B19 contains a transcriptional promoter (BP06) at map position 6, upstream from the nonstructural protein genes. By cotransfecting HeLa cells with this promoter cloned before the chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) ge ...
