Parapluie – Realisierung einer ultraschlanken Betonschale durch Aktivierung einer Membrantragwirkung
Authors: Eisenbach Philipp , Vasudevan Ragunath , Grohmann Manfred , Bollinger Klaus , Hauser Stephan 
Published: January 2014

AbstractDer Parapluie ist eine ultraschlanke Sichtbetonschale, die für eine Serienproduktion von Haltestellendächern entwickelt wurde, bei der die gefräste Schalung mehrfach verwendet wird und dessen Prototyp bereits errichtet wurde. Dabei wurde sich eines mikrobewehrten Hochleistungsbetons mit einer Armierung aus Edelstahl bedient, die gleichmäßig über den Querschnitt bis an die Randfasern verteilt ist. Dieses Material bietet eine größtmögliche Duktilität bei gleichzeitig hoher Tragfähigkeit des Bauteils. Der so erlangte biaxial homogene Werkstoff erlaubt zudem eine annähernd linear elastische Tragwerksanalyse. Das Ziel war, eine Schale zu fertigen, die so schlank und so leicht wie möglich ist. Mithilfe eines parametrischen Formfindungsprozesses wurde ein System entwickelt, dessen Lastabtrag, analog eines in der Hand gewölbten Blatt Papiers, fast ausschließlich über eine Membrantragwirkung stattfindet. Das Ergebnis ist eine Freiformschale ohne Stahleinbauteile mit einer Plattendicke an den Rändern von weniger als 24 mm.Parapluie – Fabrication of an Ultra Thin Concrete Shell by Activating Membrane EffectsParapluie is an ultra thin architectural concrete shell structure for a bus stop shelter designed for a serial production by multiple reuse of the formwork. It is made of ultra‐high‐performance‐concrete that is reinforced with a layered micro mat reinforcement distributed over the whole cross section with zero distance to the outer surfaces. This material composition leads to a highly ductile behavior that is substantiated by the biaxial homogenous cross section layout that allows a linear elastic structural analysis. The aim was to achieve a concrete shell that is as slender and lightweight as possible. By a parametric form finding process a system was developed that is able to transfer the loads of the shell mostly by membrane effects with the analogy of the structure of a sheet of paper. The result is a concrete shell with no steel embedded items and an edge thickness of less than 24 mm.
Engineering the extracellular matrix for clinical applications: Endoderm, mesoderm, and ectoderm
Authors: Williams Miguel L. , Bhatia Sujata K. 
Published: January 2014

AbstractTissue engineering is rapidly progressing from a research‐based discipline to clinical applications. Emerging technologies could be utilized to develop therapeutics for a wide range of diseases, but many are contingent on a cell scaffold that can produce proper tissue ultrastructure. The extracellular matrix, which a cell scaffold simulates, is not merely a foundation for tissue growth but a dynamic participant in cellular crosstalk and organ homeostasis. Cells change their growth rates, recruitment, and differentiation in response to the composition, modulus, and patterning of the substrate on which they reside. Cell scaffolds can regulate these factors through precision design, functionalization, and application. The ideal therapy would utilize highly specialized cell scaffolds to best mimic the tissue of interest. This paper discusses advantages and challenges of optimized cell scaffold design in the endoderm, mesoderm, and ectoderm for clinical applications in tracheal transplant, cardiac regeneration, and skin grafts, respectively.
Shining light on cell death processes – a novel biosensor for necroptosis, a newly described cell death program
Authors: Sipieter François , Ladik Maria , Vandenabeele Peter , Riquet Franck 
Published: January 2014

AbstractCell death contributes to the maintenance of homeostasis, but mounting evidence has confirmed the involvement of programmed cell death in some diseases. The concept of programmed cell death, which was coined several decades ago to refer to apoptosis, now also encompasses necroptosis, a newly characterized cell death program. Research on programmed cell death has become essential for the development of some new therapies. To study cell death signaling and its molecular mechanisms, new biochemical and fluorogenic approaches have been devised. Here, we first provide an overview of programmed cell death modes and the importance of dynamic cell death studies. Next, we focus on both apoptotic and necroptotic signaling and their mechanisms by providing a systematic review of all the methods and approaches that have been used. We emphasize the contribution of advanced approaches based on fluorescent probes, reporters, and Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET)‐based biosensors for studying programmed cell death. Because apoptosis and necroptosis signaling pathways share some effectors molecules, we discuss how these new tools could be used to discriminate between apoptosis and necroptosis. We also describe how we developed specific FRET‐based biosensors for detecting necroptosis. Finally, we touch on how dynamic measurement of biomolecules in living models will play a role in personalized prognosis and therapy.
Split‐Cre recombinase effectively monitors protein–protein interactions in living bacteria
Authors: O'Brien Sean P. , DeLisa Matthew P. 
Published: January 2014

AbstractThe ability of Cre recombinase to excise genetic material has been used extensively for genome engineering in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Recently, split‐Cre fragments have been described that advance control of recombinase activity in mammalian cells. However, whether these fragments can be utilized for monitoring protein‐protein interactions has not been reported. In this work, we developed a protein‐fragment complementation assay (PCA) based on split‐Cre for monitoring and engineering pairwise protein interactions in living Escherichia coli cells. This required creation of a dual‐fluorescent reporter plasmid that permits visualization of reconstituted Cre recombinase activity by switching from red to green in the presence of an interacting protein pair. The resulting split‐Cre PCA faithfully links cell fluorescence with differences in binding affinity, thereby allowing the facile isolation of high‐affinity binders based on phenotype. Given the resolution of its activity and sensitivity to interactions, our system may prove a viable option for poorly expressed or weakly interacting protein pairs that evade detection in other PCA formats. Based on these findings, we anticipate that our split‐Cre PCA will become a highly complementary and useful new addition to the protein‐protein interaction toolbox.
