EPFL2023BET1 variants establish impaired vesicular transport as a cause for muscular dystrophy with epilepsy
Matteo Dal Peraro, Mykola Dergai, Ying Hu
BET1 is required, together with its SNARE complex partners GOSR2, SEC22b, and Syntaxin-5 for fusion of endoplasmic reticulum-derived vesicles with the ER-Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC) and the cis-Golgi. Here, we report three individuals, from two ...
WILEY2021Wearable exoskeletons to support ambulation in people with neuromuscular diseases, design rules and control
Neuromuscular diseases are degenerative and, thus far, incurable disorders that lead to large muscle wasting. They result in constant deterioration of activities of daily living and in particular of ambulation. Some common types include Duchenne muscular d ...
EPFL2019Elucidating the role of neuron-astrocyte metabolic coupling in learning and memory
The brain has very high energy demands that are mainly met by the circulating blood glucose to ensure its proper functioning. Thus, it is not surprising that though the human brain weighs only 2- 3% of the body weight, it consumes approximately 25% of tota ...
