Abstract:

La maladie d'Alzheimer (MA) est une neuropathologie complexe qui constitue la principale forme de démence chez l'être humain. Étroitement associée au vieillissement, elle se manifeste par une perte progressive de la mémoire et des fonctions cognitives. Avec 30 millions d’individus concernés au niveau mondial et des estimations voyant ce chiffre quadrupler d'ici 2050, elle constitue aujourd’hui une menace sociétale majeure. L’atrophie cérébrale observée chez les patients atteints de la MA est la conséquence d’un long processus de neurodégénérescence qui intervient au niveau moléculaire et s’amo

Abstract:

Les maladies neurodégénératives, telles que les maladies d'Alzheimer et de Parkinson, affectent les fonctions cognitives et motrices. Elles se caractérisent par une perte progressive de neurones, sans possibilité de régénération. Avec le vieillissement de la population, ces pathologies, principalement liées à l'âge, représentent un enjeu sociétal majeur. L'absence de diagnostic précoce, de traitements efficaces et la méconnaissance des mécanismes en jeu soulignent la nécessité d'en approfondir la compréhension.

Abstract:

A detailed description of the characteristics of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) is highly demanded, since the resistance against traditional antibiotics is an emerging problem in medicine. They are part of the innate immune system in every organism, and they are very efficient in the protection against bacteria, viruses, fungi and even cancer cells. Their advantage is that their target is the cell membrane, in contrast to antibiotics which disturb the metabolism of the respective cell type. This allows AMPs to be more active and faster. The lack of an efficient therapy for some cancer types and

Abstract:

The biological membranes of eukaryotic organisms contain functional, highly dynamic nano-domains called "lipid rafts" (LRs) which are enriched in cholesterol, sphingolipids and GPI-anchor proteins. They are involved in several biological processes which implicate or are mediated by the plasma membrane. Moreover, LRs seem to have a critical role in the onset of some neurodegenerative diseases such as the Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Parkinson’s disease (PD) and Prion protein disorders. In the last two decades, the complexity of studying such domains in living cells has caused a growing interest in

Abstract:

In the spontaneous curvature model for two-phase lipid bilayer membranes the shape of vesicles is governed by a combination of an elastic bending energy and an interface energy that penalises the size of phase boundaries. Each lipid phase induces a preferred curvature to the membrane surface, and these curvatures as well as phase boundaries may lead to the development of kinks. In a rotationally symmetric setting we introduce a family of energies for smooth surfaces and phase fields for the lipid components and study convergence to a sharp-interface limit, which depends on the choice of the be

PEG-lipid stabilized bilayer disks have been found in lipid mixtures containing polyethylene glycol (PEG)-lipids where the combination of a high bending rigidity and low PEG-lipid/lipid miscibility favours disk formation. The disks are planar and circular in shape and their long-term stability is excellent. Theoretical calculations and experimental observations suggest that the micelle forming PEG-lipid are situated at the rim of the aggregate, protecting the hydrophobic lipid chains in the bulk of the aggregate from contact with water.
