disease-specific human motoneuron- muscle co-cultures with muscle cells to study pathologies and applications [...] progressively blocks the control and the force of muscle voluntary movement by affecting motoneurons and [...] induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (iPSC) and human muscle cells to form numerous NMJs, a cell model which
Going beyond the limits of myoelectric upper-arm prostheses: phantom hand movements for natural control – PhantoMovControl
of functionally distinct muscle volumes within the same muscle, i.e., muscle volumes that are distinctly [...] associated to specific activities of residual limb muscles according to the type of performed phantom movement [...] use these patterns of activation of the distinct muscle volumes to make the prosthesis mimicking the executed
FGF21 links hepatic ChREBP and PPARa to systemic glucose control – Hepatokind
beneficial action in peripheral tissues (skeletal muscles, white and brown adipose tissue) and in pancreatic
Development of in vitro micropatterned neuromuscular junctions – MIMETiC
which the activity of spinal motoneurons controls muscle contraction or relaxation during movement. As existing [...] explore electrophysiological features of motoneuron-muscle synaptic transmission and/or to evaluate new drugs
Design of a novel class of biodegradable and functionalized polyesters for cardiac application – NANOCARDIOROP
cross-linked polyesters to promote contractile muscle formation limiting the remodeling process and therefore
