Researchers from BioMaps (SHFJ) investigated the hepatic activity of organic anion-transporting polypeptides (OATPs), key players in the elimination of certain drugs, using a PET imaging approach with 11C-glyburide, which revealed differences in tracer pharmacokinetics between men and women.
Researchers from IRAMIS and SPI (DMTS) evaluated their GMR-sensor biochip prototype for its ability to detect cancer cells in a complex medium. This approach, which combines sensor physics with medical biology, aims to develop simpler and portable diagnostic tools that meet the WHO criteria for point-of-care testing.
Researchers from SIMoS (DMTS) contributed to the characterization of a nanobody (VHH) designed by scientists at the Institut de Génomique Fonctionnelle in Montpellier. They performed tritium labeling and biodistribution tracking of this VHH, which can specifically activate a glutamate receptor involved in schizophrenia. This work was published in Nature.
The COVID-PATH project was officially launched on March 12, 2025, to investigate the gastrointestinal impact of SARS-CoV-2 and its link to Long COVID.
As a stakeholder in the NOMATEN Centre of Excellence for innovative multifunctional materials, the CEA-Joliot Institute supports its development by regularly organizing training sessions for its staff. The latest examples.
