Multiscale Porosity Microfluidics to Study Bacterial Transport in Heterogeneous Chemical Landscapes
Francesco Carrara, Jiande Zhou
Microfluidic models are proving to be powerful systems to study fundamental processes in porous media, due to their ability to replicate topologically complex environments while allowing detailed, quantitative observations at the pore scale. Yet, while por ...
Hoboken2024A generic diffusion-based approach for 3D human pose prediction in the wild
Alexandre Massoud Alahi, Saeed Saadatnejad, Taylor Ferdinand Mordan
Predicting 3D human poses in real-world scenarios, also known as human pose forecasting, is inevitably subject to noisy inputs arising from inaccurate 3D pose estimations and occlusions. To address these challenges, we propose a diffusion-based approach th ...
IEEE2023Characterization of Pseudomonas aeruginosa mechanosensing through label-free imaging of type IV pili
Bacteria are ubiquitously found in all sorts of environment. They're found in the ocean, soil, or even in our guts or on our skin. Independently of their niche, they can transition from a planktonic state were they freely swim in an aqueous environment to ...
EPFL2022Aberrant hyperexpression of the RNA binding protein FMRP in tumors mediates immune evasion
Douglas Hanahan, Nadine Fournier, Krisztian Homicsko, Mélanie Louise Tichet, Agnieszka Alicja Chryplewicz, Jeremy Gilles Louis Guillot, Simge Yücel, Mohammad Sadegh Saghafinia, Inti Zlobec, Yuqing Xie, Dalya Ataca, Qiqun Zeng, Fleuriane Marie Tryskele Laurene Gallean, Peng Zhang, Lucine Christe
Many human cancers manifest the capability to circumvent attack by the adaptive immune system. In this work, we identified a component of immune evasion that involves frequent up-regulation of fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP) in solid tumors. FM ...
Washington2022Preexisting Heterogeneity of Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase Expression Drives Differential Growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in Macrophages
John McKinney, Ophélie Rutschmann, Chiara Toniolo
Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection is initiated by the inhalation and implantation of bacteria in the lung alveoli, where they are phagocytosed by macrophages. Even a single bacterium may be sufficient to initiate infection. Thereafter, the clinical outc ...
AMER SOC MICROBIOLOGY2022Immune serum-activated human macrophages coordinate with eosinophils to immobilize Ascaris suum larvae
Beatrice Volpe, Julia Esser-von Bieren, Tiffany Babette Angélique Bouchery, Kathleen Shah
Helminth infection represents a major health problem causing approximately 5 million disability-adjusted life years worldwide. Concerns that repeated anti-helminthic treatment may lead to drug resistance render it important that vaccines are developed but ...
