In vivo marker of brainstem myelin is associated to quantitative sleep parameters in healthy young men

Scientific Reports, 2023
The regional integrity of brain subcortical structures has been implicated in sleep–wake regulation, however, their associations with sleep parameters remain largely unexplored.

CRISPR/Cas9 generated knockout mice lacking phenylalanine hydroxylase protein as a novel preclinical model for human phenylketonuria

Scientific Reports, 2021
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is an autosomal recessive inborn error of l-phenylalanine (Phe) metabolism. It is caused by a partial or complete deficiency of the enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH), which is necessary for conversion of Phe to tyrosine (Tyr ...

Fully automated 18F-fluorination of N-succinimidyl-4-[18F]fluorobenzoate ([18F]SFB) for indirect labelling of nanobodies

Scientific Reports, 2022
N-succinimidyl-4-[18F]fluorobenzoate ([18F]SFB), a widely used labeling agent to introduce the 4-[18F]fluorobenzoyl-prosthetic group, is normally obtained in three consecutive steps from [18F]fluoride ion. Here, we describe an efficient one-step labeling

Brain correlates of perceived cognitive impairment after covid-19 infection: a multimodal MRI study.

European Psychiatry, 2023
Introduction Many different long-term neuropsychiatric sequelae of the novel Coronavirus have been described after the pandemic outbreak. One of the most common symptoms in the months following infection is related to “brain fog”.

Influence of sperm cryopreservation on sperm motility and proAKAP4 concentration in mice

Reproductive Medicine and Biology, 2022
Background The protein proAKAP4 is crucial for sperm motility and has been suggested as an indicator of male fertility. We determined the relationship between proAKAP4 concentration and sperm motility parameters in mice, and investigated the effects of ...

The impact of percutaneous epididymal sperm aspiration on sperm quality in mice

Reproduction and Fertility, 2023
In laboratory mice, sperm quality is usually assessed in spermatozoa collected from the cauda epididymidis of freshly sacrificed males. Percutaneous epididymal sperm aspiration (PESA) is a non-terminal alternative that would allow repeated sperm ...

Light as a Modulator of Non-Image-Forming Brain Functions—Positive and Negative Impacts of Increasing Light Availability

Clocks & Sleep, 2023
Light use is rising steeply, mainly because of the advent of light-emitting diode (LED) devices. LEDs are frequently blue-enriched light sources and may have different impacts on the non-image forming (NIF) system, which is maximally sensitive to blue ...

LV305, a dendritic cell-targeting integration-deficient ZVexTM-based lentiviral vector encoding NY-ESO-1, induces potent anti-tumor immune response

Molecular Therapy: Oncolytics, 2016
We have engineered an integration-deficient lentiviral vector, LV305, to deliver the tumor antigen NY-ESO-1 to human dendritic cells in vivo through pseudotyping with a modified Sindbis virus envelop protein.

Macrophage plasticity and polarization: in vivo veritas.

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2012
Diversity and plasticity are hallmarks of cells of the monocyte-macrophage lineage. In response to IFNs, Toll-like receptor engagement, or IL-4/IL-13 signaling, macrophages undergo M1 (classical) or M2 (alternative) activation, which represent extremes ...
