Environmental cues profoundly modulate cell proliferation and cell elongation to inform and
direct plant growth and development. External phosphate (Pi) limitation inhibits primary root …

The perpetuation of inflammation is an important pathophysiological contributor to the global
medical burden. Chronic inflammation is promoted by non-programmed cell death 1 , 2 ; …

We present a procedure that allows a reliable determination of the elastic (Young’s) modulus
of soft samples, including living cells, by atomic force microscopy (AFM). The standardized …

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are key regulatory molecules, but unlike with other RNAs,
the direct link between their tertiary structure motifs and their function has proven elusive. …

Tardigrades are remarkable for their ability to survive harsh stress conditions as diverse as
extreme temperature and desiccation. The molecular mechanisms that confer this unusual …

Novel 2-arylbenzimidazoles and azabenzimidazoles were synthesized, and their inotropic
action was evaluated. Changes in left ventricular pressure, dP/dt max, were measured as an …

Thanks to Dynamic Force Spectroscopy (DFS) and developments of massive data analysis
tools, such as YieldFinder, Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) becomes a powerful method for …

Influenza virus genome encapsidation is essential for the formation of a helical viral
ribonucleoprotein (vRNP) complex composed of nucleoproteins (NP), the trimeric polymerase, and …

Nanoparticles are defined as elementary particles with a size between 1 and 100 nm for at
least 50% (in number). They can be made from natural materials, or manufactured. Due to …

The type three secretion system (T3SS) is a macromolecular protein nano-syringe used by
different bacterial pathogens to inject effectors into host cells. The extracellular part of the …
