Development of Standardized Fetal Progenitor Cell Therapy for Cartilage Regenerative Medicine: Industrial Transposition and Preliminary Safety in Xenogeneic Transplantation

Dominique Pioletti, Sandra Jaccoud, Corinne Scaletta, Philippe Abdel Sayed, Nathalie Hirt-Burri, Salim Elias Darwiche, Alexis Laurent

Diverse cell therapy approaches constitute prime developmental prospects for managing acute or degenerative cartilaginous tissue affections, synergistically complementing specific surgical solutions. Bone marrow stimulation (i.e., microfracture) remains a ...

An objective comparison of detection and segmentation algorithms for artefacts in clinical endoscopy

Georges Wagnières, Xiaokang Wang, Sharib Ali

We present a comprehensive analysis of the submissions to the first edition of the Endoscopy Artefact Detection challenge (EAD). Using crowd-sourcing, this initiative is a step towards understanding the limitations of existing state-of-the-art computer vis ...

Variably Scaled Kernels Improve Classification of Hormonally-Treated Patient-Derived Xenografts

Cathrin Brisken, Fabio De Martino, Marie Shamseddin, Francesco Marchetti

Little is known about the biological functions which are exerted by hormone receptors in physiological conditions. Here, we made use of the Mouse INtraDuctal (MIND) model, an innovative patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model, to characterize global gene exp ...

In vivo cerebral metabolism of glioblastoma xenografts assessed with ¹H MRS, ¹³C MRS and ¹⁸F-FDG PET

Marta Lai

Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is a powerful tool when studying metabolism in intact and living organs preserving cells in their natural microenvironment with minimal external interference. The unique insights offered by the observation of metabolic ...

Pancreatic islet cells isolation and transplantation into the bone marrow

Sandrine Gerber

Bone marrow is currently being considered as an alternative site for pancreatic islet transplantation. The goal of the present review is to report preclinical and clinical studies taking advantage of this new implantation site. Preclinical studies in mice ...

A photopolymerized composite hydrogel and surgical implanting tool for a nucleus pulposus replacement

Dominique Pioletti, Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Christophe Moser, Andreas Schmocker, Azadeh Khoushabi

Nucleus pulposus replacements have been subjected to highly controversial discussions over the last 40 years. Their use has not yet resulted in a positive outcome to treat herniated disc or degenerated disc disease. The main reason is that not a single imp ...

Nano Fibrillated Cellulose Based Composite Hydrogels for an Injectable Intervertebral Disc Implant

Azadeh Khoushabi

Replacing the gel-like central part of the intervertebral disc (IVD), so-called nucleus pulposus (NP), via a minimally invasive surgery is one of the most recent approaches in the lower back pain treatments. An appropriate biomaterial for NP replacement (N ...

Anti-apoA-1 auto-antibodies increase mouse atherosclerotic plaque vulnerability, myocardial necrosis and mortality triggering TLR2 and TLR4

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos

Auto-antibodies to apolipoprotein A-1 (anti-apoA-1 IgG) were shown to promote inflammation and atherogenesis, possibly through innate immune receptors signalling. Here, we aimed at investigating the role of Toll-like receptors (TLR) 2 and 4 on anti-apoA-1 ...

Mycobacterium tuberculosis persistence mutants identified by screening in isoniazid-treated mice

John McKinney, Neeraj Dhar

Tuberculosis (TB) is notoriously difficult to cure, requiring administration of multiple antibiotics for 6 mo or longer. Conventional anti-TB drugs inhibit biosynthetic processes involved in cell growth and division, such as DNA replication, RNA transcript ...
