Ribosome profiling of selenoproteins in vivo reveals consequences of pathogenic Secisbp2 missense mutations: The establishment of translating ribosome affinity purification
(2020-11-04)
Recoding of in-frame UGA/Seccodon in selenoproteins requires a complex translational machinery. The core of this event is the interaction between selenocysteine insertion sequence (SECIS element) in the 3’UTR of ...
Low Endotoxin Recovery: Wiederfindung und pyrogene Aktivität von Endotoxinen in pharmazeutischen Produkten
(2021-08-06)
Eine zuverlässige Überwachung bakterieller Kontaminationen ist entscheidend für die Herstellung und Sicherheit biopharmazeutischer Produkte. Die mikrobielle Sicherheit wird in der Regel (zusätzlich zu Sterilitätstests und ...
Structural and functional principles of long-range connectivity in the rat vibrissal system
(2020-11-05)
Pyramidal tract neurons (PTs) represent the major output cell type of the mammalian neocortex. Integrating feedforward thalamo-cortical (TC) and recurrent intracortical (IC) inputs with those from top down cortical-cortical ...
Functional impact of Kir4.1 channels in hippocampal NG2 glia on neuronal plasticity and behavior
(2020-08-25)
NG2 glia represents the 4th type of CNS glial cells. In white matter, most of them differentiate into myelinating oligodendrocytes but in grey matter a majority retains their NG2 phenotype throughout life. Intriguingly, ...
Investigation of the procoagulant role of labile heme under hemolytic conditions
(2021-07-19)
Severe intravascular hemolysis leads to the excessive release of labile heme into the vascular compartment, thereby overwhelming the heme-binding capacity of the protective heme- scavenging system. As a consequence, labile ...
Design and Synthesis of Covalent Peptidomimetic Inhibitors for Human Cysteine Cathepsins
(2020-02-07)
The present thesis elucidates the development of (i) a series of small molecule inhibitors reacting in a covalent-irreversible manner with the targeted proteases and (ii) a fluorescently labeled activity-based probe as a ......
Impact of chronic liver inflammation on adaptive immune responses to viral infection
(2020-03-11)
A common complication in patients suffering from chronic liver inflammation and fibrosis is the enhanced susceptibility to viral infections and weak responses to vaccination, which are associated with significant co-morbidities. ...
Immune defense mechanisms against Legionella longbeachae
(2020-01-30)
The pulmonary epithelial barrier is the first line of defense against pathogens invading the lungs. If those are able to overcome this first barrier, myeloid cells of the innate immune system are instrumental for the ......
Mechanisms of epileptogenesis in animal models of developmental brain lesions
(2021-11-05)
Developmental brain lesions, including glioneuronal tumors (GNT) and malformations of cortical development (MCD), are among the most common causes for pharmaco-resistant epilepsy. Despite substantial differences, their ...
Design, Entwicklung und Herstellung modifizierter gastroretentiver schwimmender Systeme auf Basis von schmelzextrudierten hohlen Zylindermatrices
(2020-04-15)
Die Entwicklung gastroretentiver Arzneiformen ist komplex, da neben der kontrollierten Freisetzung des Wirkstoffs zusätzlich die Verlängerung der Verweilzeit im Magen gewährleistet werden muss. Hierfür werden meist hydrophile ...
