Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
Carcinogenesis is commonly described as a multistage process, in which stem cells are transformed into cancer cells via a series of mutations. In this article, we consider extensions of the multistage carcinogenesis model by mixture modeling. This approach ...
Classical antineoplastic treatments such as chemotherapy or radiation can efficiently eradicate the majority of proliferating and genetically unstable malignant cells within neoplastic lesions. There is increasing evidence, however, that these regimens fre ...
Missense mutations and extra copies of the alpha-Synuclein gene result in Parkinson disease (PD). Human stem and progenitor cells can be expanded from embryonic tissues and provide a source of non-transformed neural cells to explore the effects of these pa ...
Embryonic stem cells provide an in vitro model for developmental biologists to study cell fate decisions during ontogenesis, while somatic stem cells allow physiologists to understand tissue homeostasis in the adult. The behavior of stem cells is dependent ...
Rifampin is currently the most potent drug used in leprosy control programs. We show that the rifampin resistance which emerged in nine patients with lepromatous leprosy, who had received rifampin monotherapy, stemmed from mutations in the rpoB gene, which ...
This paper presents social sciences modeling approaches (SSMA) that have been coupled to material flow analyses in order to support management of material flows. The presented literature review revealed that the large share of these approaches stem from ec ...
Carcinogenesis is commonly described as a multistage process. In a first step, a stem cell is transformed via a series of mutations into an intermediate cell having a growth advantage. Under favorable conditions, such a cell will give rise to a clone of in ...
The site-specific incorporation of non-natural amino acids into proteins by nonsense suppression has been widely used to investigate protein structure and function. Usually this technique exhibits low incorporation efficiencies of non-natural amino acids i ...
In budding yeast, the silent information regulator Sir2p is a nuclear NAD-dependent deacetylase that is essential for both telomeric and rDNA silencing. All eukaryotic species examined to date have multiple homologues of Sir two (HSTs), which share a highl ...
Functional studies of large transcription units, clustered genes and chromosomal loci require the design of novel experimental tools to engineer genomic macro-rearrangements. Here, we present a strategy to produce deficiencies or duplications by crossing m ...
