The Institute of NeuroPhysiopathology (INP) is a training and research centre of excellence that combines basic and translational research to study neural cell organisation, function and interaction, the molecular and cellular bases of major brain diseases, and to develop innovative cellular and molecular therapeutic strategies.
The PFNT Facility is a coherent set of exploration tools in neurobiology allowing research at the molecular, cellular and integrated levels.
Aurélie Tchoghandjian-Auphan, CRCN CNRS from the GlioME team, in the Insitute of NeuroPhysiopathology, UMR CNRS 7051, was recently granted by ARC fondation for her project "Effects of Smac mimetics treatment on glioblastomas immune response".
Subsequently she was interviewed by :
- France 3 (JT 19/20 PACA diffusion du 15/11: 7'09 à 9'45) ;
- Provence Azur (18/11/2019) ;
- 20 Minutes Marseille (18/11/2019)

Vous êtes médecin, pharmacien, interne en médecine ou biologie médicale et intéressé par les maladies auto-immunes et inflammatoires chroniques ?
Dépêchez-vous, il ne reste que quelques places pour la session 2019-2020 du DESU « Exploration et traitement des maladies auto-immunes » (coordination : Dr Sophie Desplat-Jégo – Faculté de Médecine de Marseille). Inscriptions jusqu'au 30 novembre 2019.
Our data show that VEGF blockade leads to an increased recruitment of monocytes and to an adjustment of dendritic cell subsets’ profiles, differing in their ability to induce an adaptive immune response. Altogether, they provide important new insights into the effects of Bevacizumab at the cellular level and into the spatio-temporal evolution of intra-tumoral innate immune cell densities.
The leading peer-reviewed journal dedicated to understanding of the vital impact of oxygen and oxidation-reduction (redox) processes on human health and disease, exploring key issues in genetic, pharmaceutical, and nutritional redox-based therapeutics.

Congratulations to all the CNRS team for running the Marseille-Cassis race two weekends ago, and especially to Claude Villard (7th from the left, top row), INP team 9 and PINT facility member who ran this semi-marathon in 1 hour and 48 minutes.
Next year, let's make a whole INP team (as usual, the race will take place on the last Sunday of October)!
For more information, head to the race's official website.
During the NeuroStories event, held on Monday October 7 at the Faculty of Medicine, Anne-Marie François Bellan gave a remarkable stand up on how our body vibrates to the rhythm of internal chronometers called circadian clocks. She also explained how the molecular clock uses small corpuscles and cell space to make our genes rhythm.

The cIMPACT-NOW Working Committee is the Consortium to Inform Molecular and Practical Approaches to CNS Tumor Taxonomy. cIMPACT-NOW was created in late 2016 —following publication of the 2016 Updated 4th Edition of the World Health Organization (WHO) Classification of Tumours of the Central Nervous System— to provide a forum to evaluate and recommend proposed changes to future CNS tumor classifications.
During the 14th EANO annual meeting 3 members of INP team #8 presented their work on Glioma in a plenary conference «CDKN2A homozygous deletion is a strong adverse prognosis factor in diffuse malignant IDHmutant gliomas» Dominique Figarella Branger, a short talk «Plasmatic differential scanning fluorimetry profiles discriminate glioma patients from healthy controls» Emeline Tabouret and two posters «P11.06: Non epigenetic effect of vorinostat in glioblastoma cells» and «EB1-dependant long survival of glioblastoma cancer stem-like cells tumor
Une production théâtrale et une performance artistique qui auront lieu le 8 décembre à 19h30 (suite au confinement, la performance a été reportée pour la prochaine saison). Cette représentation, produite par Nadia Merad Coliac, est une œuvre inédite. Elle aura lieu à Paris au théatre Reine Blanche, scène des arts et des sciences. C'est la première fois qu'elle travaille pour un théâtre.
The Platform INteractome Timone - PINT is pleased to announce the arrival of a brand new Surface Plasmon Resonance Biacore T200 (Cytiva, ex GE Healthcare) designed to follow in real time interactions between free-labeled biomolecules from ions to viruses. The use of real-time measurement allows to provide association (kon) and dissociation (koff) rate constant of the interaction and to deduce its affinity (KD).
In this review, we focused on the most widely used 3D human glioblastoma models: spheroids, tumorospheres, organotypic slices, explants, tumoroids and glioblastoma-derived from cerebral organoids. We discuss their history, development and especially their usefulness.
We are very excited to announce that our project "Artificial Intelligence for Onco-Plasma" carried out by Remi Eyraud from QARMA team of LIS in collaboration with team 8, team 9, team 10, and
INP platform PINT together with AFMB and IMM are glad to announce their first inter-platform interactome workshop entitled "Methods to study Molecular Interactions (Biomedical applications)" that will take place from monday december 7th to friday 11th 2020.
Looking to confirm the interaction between a drug and its target?
Wanting to characterize the interaction between a receptor and its ligand?
In this paper we reported two uncommon adult cases of Diffuse Leptomeningeal Glioneuronal Tumors (DLGNTs) diagnosed after DNA-methylation profiling. This study enlarges the clinical and molecular spectrum of DLGNTs which encompass a wide spectrum of tumors that has yet to be fully clarified, and suggest that this terminology appears unsuitable in some cases.
Romain La Rocca, third year PhD student in INP team 9 (Cytoskeleton and Neurophysiopathology), will present a part of his thesis work during the 1st NanoTemper Virtual Symposium on June 30th from 9 to 12h30. NanoTemper annual seminars bring together the researchers using NanoTemper instruments, or eager to discover new technologies and in different fields of research. During this event, Romain will show how to use the nanoDSF technology to study the quaternary structure of tubulin.
Christophe Leterrier, leader of the NeuroCyto team, has just published "The Cell Biologist's Guide to Super-Resolution Microscopy", a poster and accompanying review article for the "At A Glance" series of the Journal of Cell Science.
The Platform INteractome Timone - PINT is pleased to announce the arrival of the Tycho™ NT.6, the new nanoDSF instrument by Nanotemper. The Tycho is designed to characterize the quality of any protein within minutes, using only 10 µL of sample. This fast analysis is critical for choosing the batches, buffers, or conditions by comparing the relative stability of each sample along every step of an experiment, thus allowing an efficient assay and purification workflow development.
Christophe Leterrier, NeuroCyto team leader, will be one of the judges for the 46th Nikon Small World photomicrography and Small World in Motion video competitions. He will be the first French researcher to be on the judging panel for this prestigious competition.
