While some of the logic gates, particularly OR, AND, are easy to realize with biocatalytic reactions and have been reported in numerous publications, some other, like NXOR, are very challenging and have not been realized yet with enzyme reactions. The paper reports on a novel approach to mimicking the NXOR logic gate using the bell-shaped enzyme activity dependent on pH values. Shifting pH from the optimum value to the acidic or basic values by using acid or base inputs (meaning 1,0 and 0,1 inputs) inhibits the enzyme reaction, while keeping the optimum pH (assuming 0,0 and 1,1 input combinations) preserves a high enzyme activity. The challenging part of the present approach is the selection of an enzyme with a well-demonstrated bell-shape activity dependence on the pH value. While many enzymes can satisfy this condition, we selected pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ)-dependent glucose dehydrogenase as this enzyme has the optimum pH center-located on the pH scale allowing the enzyme activity change by the acidic and basic pH shift from the optimum value corresponding to the highest activity. The present NXOR gate is added to the biomolecular "toolbox" as a new example of Boolean logic gates based on enzyme reactions.}, language = {en} } @misc{BlottnerHastermannMuckeltetal.2019, author = {Blottner, Dieter and Hastermann, Maria and Muckelt, Paul and Albracht, Kirsten and Schoenrock, Britt and Salanova, Michele and Warner, Martin and Gunga, Hans-Christian and Stokes, Maria}, title = {MYOTONES - Inflight muscle health status monitoring during long-duration space missions onboard the International Space Station: a single case study}, series = {IAC Papers Archive}, journal = {IAC Papers Archive}, publisher = {Pergamon}, address = {Oxford}, issn = {00741795}, pages = {2 Seiten}, year = {2019}, abstract = {The MYOTONES experiment is the first to monitor changes in the basic biomechanical properties (tone, elasticity and stiffness) of the resting human myofascial system due to microgravity with a oninvasive, portable device on board the ISS. The MyotonPRO device applies several brief mechanical stimuli to the surface of the skin, and the natural oscillation signals of the tissue beneath are detected and computed by the MyotonPRO. Thus, an objective, quick and easy determination of the state of the underlying tissue is possible. Two preflight, four inflight and four post flight measurements were performed on a male astronaut using the same 10 measurement points (MP) for each session. MPs were located on the plantar fascia, Achilles tendon, M. soleus, M. gastrocnemius, M. multifidus, M. splenius capitis, M. deltoideus anterior, M. rectus femoris, infrapatellar tendon, M. tibialis anterior. Subcutaneous tissues thickness above the MPs was measured using ultrasound imaging. Magnetic resonance images (MRI) of lower limb muscles and functional tests were also performed pre- and postflight. Our first measurements on board the ISS confirmed increased tone and stiffness of the lumbar multifidus muscle, an important trunk stabilizer, dysfunction of which is known to be associated with back pain. Furthermore, reduced tone and stiffness of Achilles tendon and plantar fascia were observed inflight vs. preflight, confirming previous findings from terrestrial analog studies and parabolic flights. Unexpectedly, the deltoid showed negative inflight changes in tone and stiffness, and increased elasticity, suggesting a potential risk of muscle atrophy in longer spaceflight that should be addressed by adequate inflight countermeasure protocols. Most values from limb and back MPS showed deflected patterns (in either directions) from inflight shortly after the re-entry phase on the landing day and one week later. Most parameter values then normalized to baseline after 3 weeks likely due to 1G re-adaptation and possible outcome of the reconditioning protocol. No major changes in subcutaneous tissues thickness above the MPs were found inflight vs preflight, suggesting no bias (i.e., fluid shift, extreme tissue thickening or loss). Pre- and postflight MRI and functional tests showed negligible changes in calf muscle size, power and force, which is likely due to training effects from current inflight exercise protocols. The MYOTONES experiment is currently ongoing to collect data from further crew members. The potential impact of this research is to better understand the effects of microgravity and countermeasures over the time course of an ISS mission cycle. This will enable exercise countermeasures to be tailored}, language = {en} } @article{AchtsnichtPourshahidiOffenhaeusseretal.2019, author = {Achtsnicht, Stefan and Pourshahidi, Ali Mohammad and Offenh{\"a}usser, Andreas and Krause, Hans-Joachim}, title = {Multiplex detection of different magnetic beads using frequency scanning in magnetic frequency mixing technique}, series = {Sensors}, volume = {19}, journal = {Sensors}, number = {11}, publisher = {MDPI}, address = {Basel}, issn = {1424-8220}, doi = {10.3390/s19112599}, pages = {13 Seiten}, year = {2019}, abstract = {In modern bioanalytical methods, it is often desired to detect several targets in one sample within one measurement. Immunological methods including those that use superparamagnetic beads are an important group of techniques for these applications. The goal of this work is to investigate the feasibility of simultaneously detecting different superparamagnetic beads acting as markers using the magnetic frequency mixing technique. The frequency of the magnetic excitation field is scanned while the lower driving frequency is kept constant. Due to the particles' nonlinear magnetization, mixing frequencies are generated. To record their amplitude and phase information, a direct digitization of the pickup-coil's signal with subsequent Fast Fourier Transformation is performed. By synchronizing both magnetic beads using frequency scanning in magnetic frequency mixing technique magnetic fields, a stable phase information is gained. In this research, it is shown that the amplitude of the dominant mixing component is proportional to the amount of superparamagnetic beads inside a sample. Additionally, it is shown that the phase does not show this behaviour. Excitation frequency scans of different bead types were performed, showing different phases, without correlation to their diverse amplitudes. Two commercially available beads were selected and a determination of their amount in a mixture is performed as a demonstration for multiplex measurements.}, language = {en} } @article{AlbannaLuekeSchubertetal.2019, author = {Albanna, Walid and L{\"u}ke, Jan Niklas and Schubert, Gerrit Alexander and Dibu{\´e}-Adjei, Maxine and Kotliar, Konstantin and Hescheler, J{\"u}rgen and Clusmann, Hans and Steiger, Hans-Jakob and H{\"a}nggi, Daniel and Kamp, Marcel A. and Schneider, Toni and Neumaier, Felix}, title = {Modulation of Ca v 2.3 channels by unconjugated bilirubin (UCB) - Candidate mechanism for UCB-induced neuromodulation and neurotoxicity}, series = {Molecular and Cellular Neuroscience}, volume = {96}, journal = {Molecular and Cellular Neuroscience}, number = {4}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1044-7431}, doi = {10.1016/j.mcn.2019.03.003}, pages = {35 -- 46}, year = {2019}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{RamanJungHorvathetal.2019, author = {Raman, Aravind Hariharan and Jung, Alexander and Horv{\´a}th, Andr{\´a}s and Becker, Nadine and Staat, Manfred}, title = {Modification of a computer model of human stem cell-derived cardiomyocyte electrophysiology based on Patch-Clamp measurements}, series = {3rd YRA MedTech Symposium 2019 : May 24 / 2019 / FH Aachen}, booktitle = {3rd YRA MedTech Symposium 2019 : May 24 / 2019 / FH Aachen}, editor = {Staat, Manfred and Erni, Daniel}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Duisburg-Essen}, address = {Duisburg}, organization = {MedTech Symposium}, isbn = {978-3-940402-22-6}, doi = {10.17185/duepublico/48750}, pages = {10 -- 11}, year = {2019}, abstract = {Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) have shown to be promising in disease studies and drug screenings [1].

The algorithm aims at minimizing the external knee joint moment, which is commonly used to quantify the loading of the medial compartment. To estimate the external knee joint moment, a musculoskeletal lower extremity model is implemented in OpenSim and coupled with a model of an industrial robot and a force plate mounted at its end-effector.
