Full textUn important travail de terrain a permis de collecter et d'étudier les rongeurs murins dans différents milieux représentatifs de leur diversité. Parallèlement, une enquête conduite dans la province de Phrae a montré la variabilité du système de soins et des comportements de santé. Un Système d'Information Géographique « Rongeurs et santé » centralise l'intégralité des données sur l'ensemble du territoire pour une analyse spatio-temporelle.
Cette recherche a permis de mettre à jour la description et la distribution par télédétection des principaux rongeurs murins thaïlandais ainsi que leur implication dans la transmission de germes pathogènes. La géographie de ces zoonoses reflète des différences de niveau de vie : l'exposition de l'Homme à ces maladies résulte de la chasse et de la consommation de rongeurs mais aussi d'un accès et d'un recours aux soins limités, traduisant ainsi la pauvreté des populations touchées.
Ce travail offre une approche critique des méthodes alliant les outils de la géomatique, l'analyse spatiale et la télédétection, pour l'étude des zoonoses.

Full textOrthohantaviruses are globally widespread emerging viruses hosted by small mammals. In these natural reservoirs, orthohantavirus establish asymptomatic chronic infection. Nevertheless, orthohantavirus can be occasionally transmitted to humans and may cause hemorrhagic fevers with renal syndrome in Eurasia.we carried out a comparative study of Puumala orthohantavirus, responsible for an attenuated form of HFRS, with non-pathogenic orthohantavirus Tula and Prospect Hill. We first identified suitable cellular models for our studies and we described differences in the production of viral particles depending on the host from which cells were obtained. Secondly, we shed light on the interactions of viral proteins with cellular compartments and factors during the viral cycle by 1) analyzing the regulation of protein expression, especially implicated in the immune reponse, in infected human cell line, 2) detecting the localization and interaction of viral proteins with cellular compartments in the infection, 3) defining how viral proteins antagonize the interferon signaling pathways and 4) discovering by mass spectrometry the cellular factors interacting with the nucleocapsid of our three orthohantaviruses. We showed that these viruses share common characteristics in the interaction with the cell during the viral cycle. However, we also revealed differences of regulation of cellular pathways, depending on the virus and on the viral proteins.These studies allowed to identify adapted cellular models for further studies on these viruses, as well as cellular factors that are currently been investigated for their role in the viral proteins

Full textA. phagocytophilum, a tick-borne bacterium, is responsible of the granulocytic anaplasmosis, an emerging disease that infects a large range of mammals including humans. Currently, the description of the epidemiological cycles of this bacterium is incomplete. The objective of this thesis was to characterize the genetic diversity of A. phagocytophilum in different host species to determine those involved in the same epidemiological cycle. First, we characterized the genetic diversity of A. phagocytophilum in sick domestic animals with a MLSA. We identified three groups of genotypes infecting cattle, including one group shared with horses and dogs, and another shared with roe deer. Then, we investigated what species of ticks can transmit the bacteria, and what wild mammals could be reservoirs. In Camargue, a genotype with high zoonotic potential was identified in five species of ticks of the genus Rhipicephalus, Dermacentor and Hyalomma. The prevalence in French rodents suggests that they may be reservoir hosts, but the presence of genotypes infecting cattle in rodents must be checked. Finally, comparing the bacterial genotypes in ticks and roe deer by 454 sequencing, showed that the contribution of the roe deer to tick infection was low in the site of “Vallons de Gascogne”. The absence of infected rodents in this location suggests that other reservoir mammals are present. This study demonstrates the complexity of the A. phagocytophilum cycle and the contribution of molecular tools

Full textThis work focused on the leishmaniases in Iran. It includes three topics: i) the Phlebotomine sand flies, ii) the rodent reservoirs of Leishmania major and iii) the Humans.The entomological studies concern both systematics and epidemiology.The systematic part of the study of Phlebotomine sand flies includes several inventories carrired out in several provinces of Iran (North-West, North-East, East and Center of the country). Our results update the distribution of the subgenus Adlerius. We also recorded two new species for the fauna of Iran: Phlebotomus turanicus and P. salangensis. We also carried out evolutive and comparative systematics including specimens from Iran, neighbouring and Mediterranean countries. We coupled morphology to morphometrics and molecular systematics. In the latter approach, we coupled a ribosomal DNA marker to a mitochondrial one. We studied P. perfiliewi s.l. and the subgenus Adlerius. Our epidemiological works focusing on the epidemiology in several parts of the country showed that the studied foci are classical: P. papatasi, and also the females of the Caucasicus group transmit Leishmania major whereas P. sergenti is the vector of L. tropica.The identification of the Leishmania has been done using PCR then RFLP and/or sequencing of rDNA Internal Transcribed Spacer 1.We studied the rodent reservoirs of L. major. Rhombomys opimus and Meriones libycus play an important role and the percentage of L. major infection is high (> 30%).Lastly, we carried out a study on patients from the province of Fars. In this area, leishmaniases are due to L. major, L. tropica and L. infantum. We have typed strains isolated from 42 ot 44 patients. The majority of the strains have been identified as L. major and a few L. tropica

Full textLearning and memory contribute to animals' fitness by allowing them adapting to variable environments. Thses two processes make them able to extract and use information from their environment in order to reduce the uncertainty associated with unpredictible environments. Among insects, fruit flies and honeybees are considered as classical models for the study of learning and memory. The amount of work that has been done on these models provide a considerable amount of information regarding the genetic, neurobiological and molecular basis of these processes and revealed the complexity of insects' cognitive abilities. All this knowledge acquired in model species, contrasts surprisingly with the lack of knowledge available regarding insect species that are involved in animal and human diseases transmission. Yet, it has been aknowledge that the detailed study of vectors cognitive abilities would allow the understanding of their adaptation to haematophagy, of their vectorial importance and provide new tools for diseases control. Up to date, studies focusing on disaese vectors, mainly in mosquitoes, were conducted in natural or not completely controled contexts and thus no clear demonstration of learning and memory is availaible.The main goal of this work was to provide a controled experimental context allowing the strudy of learning abilities in the haematophagous bug \textit{Rhodnius prolixus}. Our results show that these insectes are able to learn to associate the delivery of a same neutral odour either with the possibility to obtain a reward (blood-meal, appetitive conditioning) or with the possibility to receive a punishment (mechanical shock, aversive conditioning). We also showed that learning ans memory are involved in host selection processes. In a second part, we adapted to our biological model the paradigm of proboscis extension response conditioning, which allowed us to analyse and characterize its learning abilities. The maximal retention duration as well as the modulation of learning abilities by circadian clocks were evinced. Taken as a whole, this work provides the first experimental demonstration of learning abilities in Chagas disease vectors and provides experimental and methodological tools; These latters should allow improving the understanding of the mechanisms that are underlying cearning abilities of haematophagous insects in general. Results are also discussed in the context of host selection and parasite transmission

Full textEmerging diseases currently represent 65% of recent major disease outbreaks. Of them, 75% are associated with wildlife. Recently, an increasing number of newly discovered viruses have been associated with small terrestrial mammals, particularly with rodents, pointing at this group as one of the most dangerous potential sources of emerging or re-emerging diseases. To meet these challenges for public health, a proper surveillance becomes necessary, which passes by detection of pathogens in human and risky groups of animals, including field investigations. Yet this can be achieved only by using proper techniques of samples treatment and pathogen detection. Currently, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is the main tool used for the detection of pathogens in routine diagnostic and research. Yet, several researches showed that some substances can inhibit PCR, causing false-negative results. Therefore, we initiated a screening program targeting rodents for the presence of known and unidentified viruses. A total of 1441 rodents were trapped during field campaigns organized in Europe and Africa, between 2002 and 2011. At first we investigated on PCR inhibitors and discussed techniques of treatment of samples allowing reducing the influence of inhibitors in rodent samples. Among the extraction techniques tested, EZ1 virus mini kit and RNAnow extraction reagent were more effective than NucleoSpin virus kit or TRIzol extraction reagent. Also, the use of lungs and kidneys was preferable to the use of liver and spleen, the quantity of inhibitors being higher in the last two organs. No significant difference was observed between storage at -80°C, or in RNAlater RNA stabilization reagent

Full textThe recent epidemics of Chikungunya confirmed the potential of Ae. Albopictus as a vector. For implementation of Sterile Insect Technique (SIT), Mark-Release-Recapture (MLR) experiments were conducted in La Réunion Island. A mouse baited BG-Sentinel trap shown to be efficient at trapping both males and females. Results indicates that Ae. Albopictus has a limited dispersal range, higher activity during wet season, similar survival for both sexes but higher during wet season, mates before bloodmeal during dry season and preferred heavily shaded vegetated areas. We conclude that SIT should settle close release points, a low frequency of releases, adapt to season number released and places of releases. There is still a lot of work to be done before application of SIT, experiments with sterile males will be necessary for optimisation of vector population control

Full textMotor neuron diseases (MND) such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), are incurable degenerative disorders characterised by the selective loss of motor neurons (MNs) localised in the motor cortex, the brainstem and/or the spinal cord. To date, there is no treatment for these disorders because of the blood brain barrier (BBB) which hindered the crossing of the therapeutic molecules from the circulation flow to the central nervous System (CNS) parenchyma. New therapeutic strategies, based on gene transfer using viral vectors have thus been developed. This study aimed to evaluate new strategies for increasing the efficiency of MNs transduction using AAV vectors. The fîrst approach bypasses the problem of the BBB by injecting the viral vectors directly into brain areas at the origin of the descending spinal pathways. The injection of AAV vectors expressing therapeutic transgenes into these specific brain structures could indeed lead to the production and traffîcking of therapeutic proteins through descending pathways to the spinal cord by anterograde axonal transport mechanisms. The subsequent secretion of these proteins could thus influence the survival and the activity of the spinal cord MNs. The second approach is based on the systemic administration of a new serotype and genome AAV vectors, the self-complementary AAV9 vector. We identifîed the remarkable ability of AAV9 vectors to transduce cells of the CNS, including MNs, after a single intravenous injection in adult mice. This gene transfer strategy represents an efficient and non-invasive procedure to reach the CNS. This result raises thus great hopes for the treatment of MN disease and other neurological disorders

Full textEcological-biological interactions of Flavescence dorée phytoplasma (FDP), host plants and vectors were investigated in field and laboratory conditions. Main results showed that (i) FDP reduced the fitness of its natural vector Scaphoideus titanus Ball and of the experimental vector Euscelidius variegatus Kirschbaum, congenital infection in S. Titanus offspring did not occur; (ii) FDP-affected tolerant grapevine cultivar Merlot was shown to be a poorer source of FDP for S. Titanus acquisition than the susceptible grapevine cultivar White Pinot; (iii) a statistical model describing the pattern of infected and infective S. Titanus occurrence in the vineyards was proposed on the basis of experimental data of a 4-year survey of the leafhopper species populations collected in severely FDP-affected vineyards; (iiii) results of assays of insect injection and artificial feeding suggested that vector specificity of FDP is restricted to the Cicadellidae family, subfamily Deltocephalinae

Full textIdentification of genetic discontinuities between populations is important for managing species in particular in the case of pests because it permits to define population management units. The aphid Sitobion avenae is a major pest of cereals in Europe and colonises a broad spectrum of Poaceae. Population buid ups are sporadic and induce important crop losses on wheat. The proper use of insecticide sprays requires then the help of decision making tools to treat only when necessary. The objectives of this thesis are (i) to analyse the S. Avenae population genetic structure in an agricultural landscape and the migratory movements associated in order to estimate the respective role of the diffenrent potential sources in the migrand productin and (ii) to use these ecological informations to design a decision making tool. Genetic diversity analysis of the populations from several wild and cultivated hosts was perfored during two years using microsatellite markers. The first year shows a strong genetic differentiation between populations from the cultivated and wild compartments. Moreover populations were grouped in genetic clusters corresponding to the host tribes. Stability vs. Instability to the wild and cultivated compartments seems to be a key factor of this structure. During the second year the genetic differentiation between the two compartments was much lower. This genetic proximity between all host populations suggest a homogenisation phenomenon between the two years of study. The survival and the reproductive success of parthenogenetic populations overwintering in cltivated reservoirs such as early sowings of cereals and regrowths probably dependant to local climatic conditions may be at the origin of this phenomenon at the landscape scale

Full textBarley yellow dwarf disease (BYDD) is an important cereal disease caused by a complex of viruses (B/CYDV, Luteoviridae) aphid-transmitted in a persisten manner. The BYDV-PAV species based on aphicid treatments two resistance genes deriving fro mThinopyrum intermedium have been itrogressed in wheat to produce Zhong ZH and TC14 lines. Those lines have been evaluated for their ability to limit the infection progression of BYDV-PAV isolates by monitoring viral infection. Both lines show partial resistance properties and could interfere with mechanisms of viral particles in plant. In other respects, durabilities of resistance of these lines have been analysed in laboratory conditions. A hundred serial passages enables a forced replication of one BYDV-PAV isolate in each line. Isolates resulting from passages on resistant hosts overcame partial resistance at passge 5 and induced increased damages when compared to reference isolates, both on susceptible and resistant hosts. These isolates have then been tested in natural conditions to assess the stability of these propoerties. Resuslts from a three-year field trial indicate that isolates issued from passages on Zhong ZH or on TC14 induce more severe yield losses than reference isolates. As a conclusion both resistance genes may be overcome. However their use in wheat breeding against BYDD may be pursued. Indeed, ecological conditions encountered by the virus in nature (obligatory host change) differ from those on the laboratory and could prevent the overcoming. Finally the association of both genes in one line could enable to obtaining of a stronger and more durable resistance than those they individually provide

Full textPrevious studies on the Turnip yellows virus (TuYV) have shown that a deglycosylation of virus structural proteins inhibit the transmission of the virus by aphids. This suggested that TuYV structural proteins were glycosylated and that glycosylation could have a leading role in the vection mechanism of the virus. First, this manuscript describes how we try to dermine the presence of glycosylation on the Cucurbit aphid-borne yellows virus (CABYV) structural proteins. Different approaches were used as point mutation of potential N-glycosylated sites, immunodetection and mass-spectrometry. All this approaches lead to an absence of glycosylation on CABYV structural proteins. However a plant protein copurifying with the virus was glycosylated and could explain the results obtained in the previous studies. The second part of this manuscript describes the study of the role of different plants protein in the transmission mechanism by aphid of polervoris. A stimulating effect is observed on the transmission process, however this effect is not specific

Full textArboviruses are characterized by high rates of mutation. However, it has been assumed that their evolution is constrained by requirement for alternate replication in vertebrate and invertebrate hosts. Host change would favor the emergence of new viral variants pre-existing in the viral population. Indeed, during the 2004 outbreak of chikungunya virus (CHIKV) in the Indian Ocean, a newly emerged epidemic variant harboring a single amino-acid substitution in the E1 glycoprotein was highly transmitted by an unusual mosquito vector, Aedes albopictus. We showed that when the original and the newly emerged epidemic variants were provided at equal titers in blood-meals, the epidemic variant was preferentially transmitted by Ae. Albopictus. Interestingly, when inoculating both variants into mosquitoes bypassing the midgut barrier, the epidemic variant was no longer selected in Ae. Albopictus. Our findings suggest that the midgut barrier plays a key role in the selection of the epidemic variant. Subsequent adaptive mutations in the CHIKV genome are likely to emerge questioning on the evolution of CHIKV. We evaluated if host alternation can limit CHIKV evolution and results in fitness trade-offs. To test this hypothesis, the newly emerging variant of CHIKV was serially or alternately passaged in mammalian or mosquito cells. After 30 passages, obtained CHIKV strains were genetically and phenotypically characterized. Our results were not in line with the general assumption stating that host alternation constrains CHIKV evolution. However, our experimental approach suggested that new amino-acid substitutions in the E2 glycoprotein could modulate the vector competence in mosquitoes

Full textThe human body louse is currently recognized as the vector of three human pathogens: Rickettsia prowazekii, Borrelia recurrentis and Bartonella quintana. In this thesis, we first established an efficient experimental model of human body louse infection with R. Prowazekii, which reproduces the natural infection. Then, we studied the infection of the louse with B. Recurrentis. We demonstrated for the first time that the louse excretes living borreliae within its feces. In addition, we assessed the role that it would play in the transmission of Acinetobacter baumannii to humans, previously isolated in our laboratory from lice naturally infected and collected worldwide. Finally, we demonstrated for the first time that the louse is able to transmit Rickettsia typhi (naturally transmitted by the Oriental rat flea), R. Rickettsii and R. Conorii (naturally transmitted by ticks). Moreover, we produced and efficiently applied monoclonal antibodies directed against R. Prowazekii, R. Typhi and R. Felis for their detection from their arthropod vectors

Full textTick borne rickettsioses have limited geographic distributions that are determined by their tick vectors. During the last 20 years, 16 additional rickettsial species or subspecies were identified and characterized by epidemiologic, microbiological and molecular tools, but there are many unknown questions on the relation between the rickettsiae and their vectors. We used a simple and effective molecular approach to study the epidemiology of the tick borne rickettsioses in France, in Morocco, in Chad, in Djibouti, in Ethiopia, in Uganda and French Guiana. The same approach can be extended to other countries. Three colonies of the naturally infected ticks: Rhipicephalus sanguineus infected with R. Conorii, Amblyomma variegatum infected with R. Africae and Dermacentor marginatus infected with Rickettsia sp. DmS1 and some colonies of not infected ticks were established in the laboratory. Studies of transmission, maintenance, infectivity, virulence, and pathogenicity of tick borne agents require the use of large numbers of live laboratory-raised ticks. A protocol of maintenance of laboratory ticks was established. The vertical transmission of these rickettsiae was studied and these infected ticks could be used to study other aspects of the relations ticks-rickettsiae. One of important point of our work is the results obtained on the relation of Rh. Sanguineus and R. Conorii, agent of the Mediterranean spotted fever (MSF) endemic in the countries of the Mediterranean area. Rh. Sanguineus are not only a vector but could be a reservoir of R. Conorii. A focus of spotted fever was investigated in France in May 2007. In addition to the originality of theses cases (ophthalmic involvements, the second reported case of R. Massiliae infection), we provide evidence that this cluster of cases was related to a warming-mediated increase in the aggressiveness of Rh. Sanguineus, leading to increased human attacks. The temperature seems to be essential on the ecology and the epidemiology of the tick borne rickettsioses. New studies are necessary to better understand the relation between the rickettsies and their vector - ticks

Full textEmerging and re-emerging diseases can give rise to serious economical - and even social - crises. Improving the knowledge that allows coping with such diseases is an immediate stake in this field of research. An approach to this issue is proposed and applied to European stone fruit yellows (ESFY), a disease of Prunus trees that re-emerges in Europe. This disease is responsible for an incurable decline, mainly on apricot and Japanese plum. It is caused by a phytoplasma ('Candida/us Phytoplasma prunorum') specifically transmitted by Cacopsylla pruni on the persistent mode. Wc analysed the risk factors and the processes of ESFY epidemics through integrating several approaches: a statistical model at a regional scale for analysing the factors correlated to ESFY prevalence, experiments on the cycle of the vector and on the potential infectivity of its different stages, and hypothesis tests based on the location of diseased trees. The statistical approaches highlight the major impact on disease dynamics of the cultivar/rootstock combination. The experiments demonstrate that C. Prumi is a univoltine vector whose young stages acquire the phytoplasma, multiply it, and then conserve it during their summering and overwintering on conifers (alternative hosts). In the most probable scenario arising from the comparison of the different approaches, the reimmigrants infected since the year before would be the only efficient vectors of ESFY in apricot orchards, where they would land at random and independently; then, they would often perform several short-distance primary inoculations: therefore, this disease would be monocyclic in apricot orchards. This scenario was incorporated into a simulation model at the orchard scale, which, in the future, will unable estimating the parameters linked to the local behaviour of the vector

Full textDue to their efficiency and safety, recombinant adenoassociated virus (rAAV) vectors have been widely used for gene therapy. ln the past few years, there have been a large number of positive clinical outputs using AAVbased products spanning broad therapeutic areas. However, the generation of rAAV at sufficient quantity and quality appears as a bottleneck on the path to commercialization. The baculovirus-infected insect cell platform has proven to tackle this challenge, yet, surprisingly, the biology of rAAV in insect cells remains largely unknown. As a result, current vectors suffer from quality problems such as generation of empty particles or reduced infectivity. The objectives of the present work are 1) to determine the rAAV packaging efficiency and specificity in insect cells 2) to investigate the link between packaging and Rep proteins expression, and 3) to decipher the role of the assembly-activating protein (AAP). First, we showed that less than 30% of rAAV particles contained the gene of interest in S19 cells cleared lysate. Second, we found that baculoviral DNA contamination is below 2.1% of encapsidated DNA, with a higher representativity for sequences close to the inverted terminal repeats. Finally, we demonstrated that functional AAP is strictly required for rAAV2 particles assembly in insect cells. Altogether, our data provide novel insights into the biological mechanism of rAAV genome packaging in insect cells and suggest that there is still room for improvement in order to increase vector quality. From a safety perspective, this project has allowed the development of an accurate quality control method to assess DNA contamination in viral vector stocks

Full textIn the plant pathogenic mollicute Spiroplasma citri, spiralin is the most abundant lipoprotein at the cell surface. Spiralin is not essential for helicity, motility, or pathogenicity but is required for efficient transmission of the spiroplasma by its vector insect. Adhesin-like proteins (Scarp), which are thought to be involved in adherence of spiroplasmas to insect cells, are present in S. Citri GII-3 but absent in non insect-transmissible strains. The eight scarp genes are carried by conjugative plasmids. A survey of transmissible and non transmissible strains of S. Citri established a correlation between transmissibility by insect and the presence of plasmids pSci-6. Plasmid transfer though electrotransformation from S. Citri GII-3 to the non transmissible strain 44 revealed that the only plasmid pSci6 conferred transmissibility. The genetic determinants encoded by this plasmid are still to be characterized

Full textD. Gallinae or the poultry red mite is the most important ectoparasite of laying hens in Europe. This hematophagous mite can, in fowl, induce anemia, loss of weight and reduced egg production. Moreover, it is suspected to be a vector for various pathogenic agents. The large number of salmonellosis infections declared in avian poultry farms and the simultaneous presence of mites have raised the question of the role of D. Gallinae in the transmission of S. Enteritidis. We set up efficient, reliable techniques for extracting DNA from mites as well as methods for detecting Salmonella and so evaluate the presence of this bacterium in mites and we have shown that D. Gallinae is a biological and experimental vector of S. Enteritidis. Naturally infected mites were also recovered from farms previously or currently contaminated with Salmonella suggesting the potential reservoir role of D. Gallinae in poultry farms. The further objective of this work was the study of the bacteria colonising mites in standard poultry farms in the Brittany region. The use of « broad range PCR-TTGE » allowed us, for the first time, to detect environmental bacteria, opportunistic pathogens, strict pathogens and symbiotic bacteria. We also determined the common microflora associated with the mites. In the future, it would be interesting to compare these bacteria to species detected in mites collected from different types of poultry farms or in other geographical regions

Full textLe traitement de maladies oculaires par voie topique est simple pour le patient. Il est préconisé dans plus de 90% des cas puisqu’il est généralement moins invasif que les traitements alternatifs. Cependant, l’efficacité des médicaments administrés par voie topique demeure limitée en raison de processus physiologiques qui entraînent une faible absorption. Les travaux réalisés au cours de cette maîtrise visent l’amélioration de la biodisponibilité des médicaments pour la thérapie oculaire grâce à un vecteur à base de nanoparticules d’or. L’intérêt de l’utilisation des nanoparticules d’or comme vecteur consiste à utiliser leurs propriétés mucoadhésives afin d’augmenter le temps de rétention des médicaments à la cornée, et ainsi, d’en permettre une plus grande absorption. Ce projet se divise en cinq volets. Le premier volet vise l’étude des connaissances actuelles sur les nanoparticules d’or en ophtalmologie, et souligne les caractéristiques qui mènent à la synthèse de nanoparticules non-toxiques. Le deuxième volet présente l’évaluation des propriétés mucoadhésives des nanoparticules d’or. Cela implique d’évaluer leur affinité pour les mucines, soit des protéines du film pré-cornéen. Afin d’obtenir des nanoparticules pouvant supporter les conditions nécessaires à leur usage in vivo, la synthèse et la caractérisation de nanoparticules d’or ultrastables ont été réalisées. L’optimisation de l’encapsulation de médicaments dans la couronne périphérique de la nanoparticule constitue le quatrième volet. Finalement, l’étude de la cytotoxicité des nanoparticules d’or représente le cinquième volet. Les expériences ont démontré que nos nanoparticules d’or mucoadhésives et ultrastables supportent des conditions drastiques, dont l’autoclave, permettant leur stérilisation pour des usages in vivo. Des molécules actives utilisées en thérapie oculaire peuvent y être encapsulées. De plus, les nanoparticules ne semblent pas affecter les mécanismes biologiques. Ces données suggèrent l’amélioration potentielle de la thérapie oculaire grâce aux nanoparticules d’or.
Topical ocular therapy is a simple administration route used in more than 90% of cases when a patient need ocular treatment. It is generally less invasive than other available treatments which often involve intraocular injections and puncture wounds. However, efficiency of active molecules administered topically is limited considering that less than 0.02 % is successfully absorbed by the cornea. This master’s project aims the amelioration of ocular therapy by enhancing biodisponibility of active molecules thanks to a drug vector based on gold nanoparticles. Gold nanoparticles present mucoadhesive properties, leading to the increase of the retention time of drugs at the cornea, thus enhancing their absorption. This project is divided in 5 aspects. The first aspect aims to overview the actual knowledge on gold nanoparticles in ophthalmology and to highlight synthesis parameters leading to non-toxic nanoparticles. Second part presents the evaluation of gold nanoparticles’ mucoadhesive properties, which imply the evaluation of their affinity for pre-corneal film proteins, as mucins. To be used in vivo , gold nanoparticles must support sterilization, formulation treatments as well as physiological media. Third aspect presents the synthesis and characterization of ultrastable gold nanoparticles. Their capacity to encapsulate active molecules within their polymeric crown is evaluated as the fourth aspect. Finally, as the fifth aspect, the cytotoxicity of the nanoparticles was evaluated. The mucoadhesive ultrastable gold nanoparticles support drastic conditions, as autoclave sterilization predicting their use in vivo. Active molecules were successfully encapsulated within their ligands. Furthermore, they do not seem to cause any alteration of biological mechanism in cells. These results suggest potential improvement of ocular therapy thanks to gold nanoparticles.

Full textTransplantation of hepatocytes is a promising approche for the treatment of severe liver disease. The hurdles faced with adult hepatocytes could be surmounted with the use of human fetal hepatoblasts. Intra-uterine transplantation could improve chimerism and avoid termination of pregnancy in case of prenatal diagnosis. Primate fetal hepatocytes can be isolated, cryopreserved and immortalized. In utero allo-transplantation is feasible, allowing for short-term detection of donor hepatocytes. We have isolated, characterized,transduced and cryopreserved hepatoblasts from human livers at an early stage of development (11-13 weeks of gestation). After transplantation, cryopreserved cells engrafted into the liver of athymic mice for long term (12 sem), proliferated(up to 10% repopulation) and matured expressing Alb, Alpha-1-Antitrypsin, Cytochrome P450.

Full textBabesia divergens is a protozoan parasite of bovine red blood cells. It is transmitted by the hard tick Ixodes ricinus. The life cycle of this parasite inside its vector is not precisely known. The aim was here to identify the transmission stages of B. Divergens, on one hand the sporozoite (transmission from the vector to the vertebrate host) and on the other hand the gametocyte (transmission from the vertebrate to the vector). First numerous tick experimental infections were conducted to isolate the sporozoites from the tick transmitting organ, the salivary glands. Even if no parasite could be isolated for B. Divergens, the identification of sporozoites from another species B. Sp. EU1 inside I. Ricinus confirmed that the developed methods were appropriate. Concerning the gametocyte, genes, that are conserved among the Apicomplexa and specific of sexual stages, were selected in P. Falciparum genome by bioinformatics. Three orthologs bdccp1, 2 & 3 were identified in B. Divergens and their mRNA were proved to be present inside the intraerythrocytic parasite population. The study of one of the corresponding proteins, BdCCp2, using immune sera directed against recombinant peptides, confirm the existence of B. Divergens’ sexual stages inside tick gut. Produced tools and methods will allow the acquisition of knowledge on B. Divergens’ transmission

Full textTrois agents de zoonoses sont présents : deux hantavirus (virus Puumala et Tula) et le virus Cowpox. La dispersion et le comportement social des rongeurs sont importants pour la transmission de ces virus spécifiques (hantavirus) et non spécifique (virus Cowpox). Ces virus sont majoritairement trouvés en milieu forestier. Les communautés de parasites détectées en forêt et en prairie sont différentes. Les infestations par des helminthes sont plus nombreuses en prairie qu'en forêt. Une étude immunogénétique montre l'existence d'allèles de susceptibilité et de résistance aux agents de zoonoses étudiés. Des helminthes ou des acariens pourraient aussi intervenir dans l'infection par ces virus. Un de ces helminthes pourrait être impliqué dans la dynamique de ses hôtes. Mes travaux expérimentaux et de modélisation montrent l'impact du nématode non spécifique Trichuris arvicolae sur la reproduction du campagnol des champs et son rôle régulateur pour les populations d'arvicolinés.

Full textThe basal ganglia (BG) are a group of sub-cortical nuclei involved in motor, memory and cognitive functions. In the BG, the GABAergic external globus pallidus (GPe) holds a position of relay nucleus between the striatum (STR) and the sub thalamic nucleus within the indirect pathway of the BG. Modifications of rate and pattern of activity of this nucleus are known to be the electrophysiological signatures of Parkinson’s (PD) and Huntington’s diseases (HD). In PD, hyperactivity of the striato-pallidal (STR-GPe) pathway is thought to be responsible for the increase of the extracellular GABAergic concentrations in the GPe and participate to the hypoactivity of pallidal neurons observed in experimental Parkinsonism. In contrast, during HD, it is recognized that the hyperactivity of GPe neurons is due to the degeneration of striato-pallidal neurons and thus to the reduction of the main source of pallidal GABAergic inhibition. However, the molecular mechanisms involved in these modifications of pallidal activity are not well characterized. Therefore, using PD and HD animal models, the 6-OHDA rodents and the R6-1 transgenic mice respectively, we have performed molecular biology, immunohistochemistry and electrophysiological in vitro experiments in order to better understand the origin of GABAergic transmission alterations leading to changes in electrophysiological activity of GPe neurons into these two pathologies. My main results show the apparition of a tonic GABAergic inhibition due to a deficit of GABA uptake in PD and a early stage reduction of GABAergic synaptic transmission in HD. Altogether, these results suggest that alterations of GABAergic transmission contribute to the pathophysiology of PD and HD
