The Crosstalk Between Red And White Blood Cells: The Case Of Fish (BLOODCELLSCROSSTALK)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2015, Date de fin: 31 mars 2020,
Fish are the phylogenetically oldest vertebrate group with an immune system with clear similarities to the immune system of mammals. However, it is an actual matter of fact that the current knowledge of the fish immune system seems to lack the key piece to complete the puzzle. In 1953 Nelson described a new role of human red blood cells (RBCs) which would go beyond the simple transport of O2 to th ...

Smart Wearable Robots with Bioinspired Sensory-Motor Skills (BioMot)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2013, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2016,
Wearable robots (WR) are person-oriented devices, usually in the form of exoskeletons. These devices are worn by human operators to enhance or support a daily function, such as walking. WRs find applications in the enhancement of intact operators or in clinical environments, e.g. rehabilitation of gait function in neurologically injured patients. Most advanced WRs for human locomotion still fail t ...

Marine Microorganisms: Cultivation Methods for Improving their Biotechnological Applications (MACUMBA)
Date du début: 1 août 2012, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2016,
Marine microorganisms form an almost untapped resource of biotechnological potential. However, its use is hindered by the low success rate of isolation of novel microorganisms and often by poor growth efficiency. Hence, the vast majority of marine microorganisms has not been cultivated and is often considered as ‘unculturable’. MaCuMBA aims at improving the isolation rate and growth efficiency of ...

Uncovering the postembryonic function of embryonic lethal genes in Arabidopsis thaliana (CLONAL)
Date du début: 1 juin 2009, Date de fin: 31 mai 2013,
"Genes with essential functions have been identified in plants through the isolation of gametophytic-lethal and embryonic-lethal mutations. If lethality is a sign of the important metabolic, cellular or developmental function of a given gene, then we may expect some of these genes to also play crucial roles later in plant development. Because homozygotes are not viable or cannot be obtained, the f ...

Cancer is often characterized as a disease of signal transduction pathways, since it is frequently associated with inappropriate activation of such pathways. Indeed, new therapeutic approaches in cancer therapy, such as Herceptin, frequently target signaling pathway components to revert their pathophysiological aberrations. Most oncogenic pathways have been highly conserved throughout evolution wi ...
