Surface crosslinking of virus-like particles increases resistance to proteases, low pH and mechanical stress for mucosal applications

A. Ali, S. Ganguillet, Y. Turgay, T. Keys, E. Causa, R. Fradique, V. Lutz-Bueno, S. Chesnov, C.-W. Lin, V. Lentsch, J. Kotar, P. Cicuta, R. Mezzenga, E. Slack, M. Radiom

This study enhances the stability of virus-like particles (VLPs) against environmental stressors by surface crosslinking, without affecting their vaccine function.

Assessing motile cilia coverage and beat frequency in mammalian in-vitro cell culture tissues

R. Fradique, E. Causa, C. Delahousse, J. Kotar, L. Pinte, L. Vallier, M. Vila-Gonzalez, P. Cicuta

This paper introduces an automated method to assess cilia coverage and beat frequency in mammalian in vitro cell cultures using video microscopy.

Diurnal variations in the motility of algal populations

D. Jin, J. Kotar, E. Silvester, K. Leptos, O. A. Croze

This paper uses tracking microscopy to show that Chlamydomonas reinhardtii swims faster at night, links this to flagellar ATP regulation, and predicts population-level changes in vertical distribution.

Synchronization of mammalian motile cilia in the brain with hydrodynamic forces

P. Cicuta, N. Pellicciotta, E. Hamilton, N. Spassky, N. Delgehyr, M. Faucourt, J. Kotar

The paper shows that hydrodynamic forces between cilia in brain cells can synchronize their beating, with fewer cilia per cell being more responsive to external flows.
