The Helmbacher team identified the Fat1 Cadherin as a novel regulator of retinal vascular integrity, and investigated the underlying mechanisms.

Our work demonstrates that by activating the NF-kB pathway, cell wall peptidoglycan produced by these same bacteria, counteracts SREBP activation in adipocytes in a cell-autonomous manner.

Our results allow us to propose a simple and efficient model of how life could generate new functions through the use of new actin isoforms.

Data published in Hum Mol Genet. confirm that Tshz3 heterozygous mice constitute a model that replicates many of the clinical problems reported in patients with TSHZ3 heterozygous conditions.

The selected candidates will receive support to establish a group in a fully renovated building, have access to cutting-edge scientific core facilities, and will be assisted in obtaining a tenured position, and in securing extramural funding.

Our findings provide mechanistic insight into the mechanism by which TAFA4 reverses injury-induced mechanical hypersensitivity, by restoring normal spinal neuron activity, and highlight the considerable potential of TAFA4 as a treatment for injury-induced mechanical pain.

Through an international collaboration, using breast cancer as a biological paradigm, Flavio Maina Team publishes a work in the Theranostics journal exemplifying how specificity in targeting cell cycle regulators is essential for combinatorial cancer therapies.

Lydia Kerkerian-Le Goff was awarded the Chevalier de la Légion d’Honneur by Geneviève Rougon on Friday 1 October at the Hexagon, Emeritus researcher at the Institute of Neurosciences at La Timone…

Americans David Julius, born in 1955 in New York, and Ardem Patapoutian, born in 1967 in Beirut and of Lebanese-Armenian origin, were awarded the prize for their discoveries of temperature and touch receptors.
