Aurora A depletion reveals centrosome-independent polarization mechanism in Caenorhabditis elegans

Pierre Gönczy, Coralie Busso, Kerstin Klinkert Fabbri, Lukas von Tobel, Christian Gentili, Marie Juliette Ségolène Pierron, Sarah Herrman

How living systems break symmetry in an organized manner is a fundamental question in biology. In wild-type Caenorhabditis elegans zygotes, symmetry breaking during anterior-posterior axis specification is guided by centrosomes, resulting in anterior-direc ...

Microfluidic and micromechanical in vivo studies of Caenorhabditis elegans

Roger Philippe Krenger

Caenorhabditis elegans is one of the most attractive model organisms in biomedical research for understanding human diseases and for drug testing at a whole-organism level, since many biological pathways and genes have been conserved between itself and hum ...

8-Channel Single Embryo Pipette For Accurate C-Elegans Bioassays

Martinus Gijs, Thomas Lehnert, Li Dong, Jingwei Zhang

The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) is a powerful model organism for addressing fundamental biological questions related to human disease and aging. Accurate control of the number of worms is a primary step for quantitative biological or bioch ...

Lab-on-a-chip technologies for manipulation and imaging of C. elegans worms and embryos

Li Dong

The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is an attractive model organism, owing notably to its short life cycle, genetic tractability, and optical transparency facilitating microscopic observation. This thesis deals with the realization of technological tools f ...

Microfluidic high-content phenotypic screening on a Caenorhabditis elegans model

Maria Cristina Letizia

Caenorhabditis elegans is a performant model system for studying human biological processes and diseases and for pre-clinical phenotyping screenings of compounds. Microfluidics has been instrumental in enabling C. elegans-based drug assays, facilitating th ...

A microfluidic platform for automated phenotyping during full lifespan of Caenorhabditis elegans at high-throughput

Johan Auwerx, Martinus Gijs, Matteo Cornaglia, Laurent Mouchiroud, Hüseyin Baris Atakan

We present a multiplexed and automated microfluidic platform for phenotyping of C. elegans during their full lifespan and at high-throughput. We used the fluorescent hsp-6::gfp strain of worms and performed experiments to observe the effect of four differe ...

Label-free three-dimensional imaging of Caenorhabditis elegans with visible optical coherence microscopy

Johan Auwerx, Theo Lasser, Laurent Mouchiroud, Paul James Marchand, Arno Pino Bouwens, Vincenzo Sorrentino, Séverine Coquoz, Daniel Pawel Szlag

Fast, label-free, high-resolution, three-dimensional imaging platforms are crucial for high-throughput in vivo time-lapse studies of the anatomy of Caenorhabditis elegans, one of the most commonly used model organisms in biomedical research. Despite the ne ...

Enhancing mitochondrial proteostasis reduces amyloid-beta proteotoxicity

Johan Auwerx, Davide D'Amico, Adrian Schmid, Mario Romani, Norman Lionel Moullan, Vincenzo Sorrentino, Hongbo Zhang, Francesca Potenza, Solene Rietsch

Alzheimer's disease is a common and devastating disease characterized by aggregation of the amyloid-beta peptide. However, we know relatively little about the underlying molecular mechanisms or how to treat patients with Alzheimer's disease. Here we provid ...

Versatile size-dependent sorting of C-elegans nematodes and embryos using a tunable microfluidic filter structure

Martinus Gijs, Thomas Lehnert, Matteo Cornaglia, Li Dong

The roundworm Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) is a powerful model organism for addressing fundamental biological questions related to human disease and aging. Its life cycle consists of an embryo stage, four larval stages that can be clearly distinguis ...

On-chip microfluidic biocommunication assay for studying male-induced demise in C. elegans hermaphrodites

Martinus Gijs, Thomas Lehnert, Matteo Cornaglia, Li Dong

Like other animals, C. elegans nematodes have the ability to socially interact and to communicate through exchange and sensing of small soluble signaling compounds that help them cope with complex environmental conditions. For the time being, worm biocommu ...
