Counterflow dielectrophoresis for trypanosome enrichment and detection in blood [PDF]
, 2012 Human African trypanosomiasis or sleeping sickness is a deadly disease endemic in sub-Saharan Africa, caused by single-celled protozoan parasites. Although it has been targeted for elimination by 2020, this will only be realized if diagnosis can be ...

Autophagy in cancer and protein conformational disorders
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Autophagy plays a crucial role in numerous biological processes, including protein and organelle quality control, development, immunity, and metabolism. Hence, dysregulation or mutations in autophagy‐related genes have been implicated in a wide range of human diseases.

, 2021 Many processors are available for separating particles and/or cells, but few can match the capacity of flow cytometry – in particular the sorting component. Several aspects unique to cell sorting give it such power. First, particles can be separated based on size, complexity, fluorescence, or any combination of these parameters.

A stepwise emergence of evolution in the RNA world
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.How did biological evolution emerge from chemical reactions? This perspective proposes a gradual scenario of self‐organization among RNA molecules, where catalytic feedback on random mixtures plays the central role. Short oligomers cross‐ligate, and self‐assembly enables heritable variations. An event of template‐externalization marks the transition to

Numerical Simulation of a Lab-on-Chip for Dielectrophoretic Separation of Circulating Tumor Cells
Micromachines, 2023 Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are cancer cells detached from tumors that enter the bloodstream with the rest of the blood cells before settling on remote organs and growing. CTCs play a major role as a target for cancer diagnosis.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.B cells sense external mechanical forces and convert them into biochemical signals through mechanotransduction. Understanding how malignant B cells respond to physical stimuli represents a groundbreaking area of research. This review examines the key mechano‐related molecules and pathways in B lymphocytes, highlights the most relevant techniques to ...
