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.
Corneal diseases account for eight million blind people worldwide, making up to 10% of all causes of blindness. As 80% of the information is collected by our senses, blindness is a very invalidating condition which lowers greatly patients’ quality of life. ...
Nowadays the mechanism regulating the corneal epithelium renewal still remains unclear. Until now it was thought to be the fact of stem cells distributed in the limbus, generating TA cells migrating towards the central cornea and responsible for its renewa ...
The goals of tissue engineering include recapitulating specific tissue functions for regenerative medicine and developing in vitro models of human tissues to study human physiology and pathophysiology and for testing and screening drugs before expensive cl ...
PURPOSE. The Pbx TALE (three-amino-acid loop extension) homeodomain proteins interact with class 1 Hox proteins, which are master regulators of cell fate decisions. This study was performed to elucidate the role of the Pbx1 TALE protein in the corneal epit ...
PTEN acts as a tumor suppressor in a range of tissue types and has been implicated in the regulation of intestinal stem cells. To study Pten function in the intestine, we used various conditional transgenic strategies to specifically delete Pten from the m ...
The integrity of the cornea, the most anterior part of the eye, is indispensable for vision. Forty- five million individuals worldwide are bilaterally blind and another 135 million have severely impaired vision in both eyes because of loss of corneal trans ...
We present a novel, inexpensive, and fast microimpedance tomography system for two-dimensional imaging of cell and tissue cultures. The system is based on four-electrode measurements using 16 planar microelectrodes (5 mum x 4 mm) integrated into a culture ...
Hes1, a major target gene in Notch signaling, regulates the fate and differentiation of various cell types in many developmental systems. To gain a novel insight into the role of Hes1 in corneal tissue, we performed gain-of-function and loss-of-function st ...
We present a miniaturized impedance imaging system, developed for 2D imaging of cell and tissue culture. The system is based on 16 microelectrodes (5 µm × 4 mm). An equivalent circuit for four-point (tetrapolar) impedance spectra was developed and validate ...
Integrity and preservation of a transparent cornea are essential for good vision. The corneal epithelium is stratified and nonkeratinized and is maintained and repaired by corneal stem cells. Here we demonstrate that Notch1 signaling is essential for cell ...
