Methods of protein corona isolation for magnetic nanoparticles

Heinrich Hofmann, Diego Chiappe, Marc Moniatte, Marijana Mionic Ebersold, Débora Bonvin

Nanoparticles (NPs) in contact with a biological environment get covered by proteins and some are loosely bound and some are tightly bound. The latter form a hard protein corona (HPC) which is known to determine their biological behavior. Therefore, in ord ...

A comparative study of simulated body fluids in the presence of proteins

Paul Bowen, Jacques Lemaître, Weitian Zhao

Simulated body fluid (SBF) is widely used as part of an in vitro method to evaluate implant materials such as their apatite forming ability (AFA), a typical indication of potential bone-bonding ability in vivo. We report the use of carbonate-buffered SBFs ...

MATHICSE Technical Report : Biomembrane modeling with Isogeometric Analysis

Alfio Quarteroni, Luca Dede', Andrea Bartezzaghi

We consider the numerical approximation of lipid biomembranes, including red blood cells, described through the Canham-Helfrich model, according to which the shape minimizes the bending energy under area and volume constraints. Energy minimization is perfo ...

Peptide macrocycle inhibitor of coagulation factor XII with subnanomolar affinity and high target selectivity

Christian Heinis, Jonas Alfred Karl Wilbs, Simon Jan Middendorp

Factor XII (FXII) is a plasma protease that has emerged in recent years as a potential target to treat or prevent pathological thrombosis, to inhibit contact activation in extracorporeal circulation, and to treat the swelling disorder hereditary angioedema ...

ATP and NADPH coated iron oxide nanoparticles for targeting of highly metabolic tumor cells

Dominique Bonvin, Heinrich Hofmann

The metabolic activity of tumor cells is known to be higher as compared to that of normal cells, which has been previously exploited to deliver nanomedicines to highly metabolic tumor cells. Unfortunately, current strategies, which are mostly based on comp ...

Local induction of lymphangiogenesis with engineered fibrin-binding VEGF-C promotes wound healing by increasing immune cell trafficking and matrix remodeling

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz, Witold Waldemar Kilarski, Priscilla Suhasna Maithili Briquez, Esra Güç, Manuel Andreas Fankhauser

Lymphangiogenesis occurs in inflammation and wound healing, yet its functional roles in these processes are not fully understood. Consequently, clinically relevant strategies for therapeutic lymphangiogenesis remain underdeveloped, particularly using growt ...

3D Time-lapse Imaging and Quantification of Mitochondrial Dynamics

Theo Lasser, Paul James Marchand, Jérôme Extermann, Antonio Lopez, Miguel Sison, Amir Jean Nahas

We present a 3D time-lapse imaging method for monitoring mitochondrial dynamics in living HeLa cells based on photothermal optical coherence microscopy and using novel surface functionalization of gold nanoparticles. The biocompatible protein-based biopoly ...

Active Nanorheology with Plasmonics

Peer Fischer, Tian Qiu, Hyeonho Jeong

Nanoplasmonic systems are valued for their strong optical response and their small size. Most plasmonic sensors and systems to date have been rigid and passive. However, rendering these structures dynamic opens new possibilities for applications. Here we d ...

Molecular landscapes of human hematopoietic stem cells in health and leukemia

Cyrille Dunant

Blood cells are organized as a hierarchy with hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) at the root. The advent of genomic technologies has opened the way for global characterization of the molecular landscape of HSCs and their progeny, both in mouse and human model ...

Sensitive and fast identification of bacteria in blood samples by immunoaffinity mass spectrometry for quick BSI diagnosis

Hubert Girault, Horst Pick, Niels Erik Lion, Natalia Gasilova, Liang Qiao, Michel Prudent, Yingdi Zhu, Alexandra Bondarenko

Bloodstream infections rank among the most serious causes of morbidity and mortality in hospitalized patients, partly due to the long period (up to one week) required for clinical diagnosis. In this work, we have developed a sensitive method to quickly and ...
