AbstractWater oxidation catalysis is a key step for sustainable fuel production by water splitting into hydrogen and oxygen. The synthesis of a novel coordination oligomer based on four Ru(bda) (bda = 2,2′‐bipyridine‐6,6′‐dicarboxylate) centers, three 4,4′‐bipyridine (4,4′‐bpy) linkers, and two 4‐picoline (4‐pic) end caps is reported. The monodispersity of this tetranuclear compound is characterized by NMR techniques. Heterogeneous electrochemical water oxidation after immobilization on multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) shows catalytic performance unprecedented for this compound class, with a turnover frequency (TOF) of 133 s\(^{−1}\) and a turnover number (TON) of 4.89 × 10\(^6\), at a current density of 43.8 mA cm\(^{−2}\) and a potential of 1.45 V versus normal hydrogen electrode (NHE).
Innerhalb der Juvenilen Idiopathischen Arthritis (JIA) bilden Patienten mit Antinukleären Antikörpern (ANA) Subgruppen-übergreifend eine klinisch homogene Erkrankungsgruppe. Ob diesen klinischen Gemeinsamkeiten jedoch auch eine einheitliche Pathogenese zugrunde liegt, ist bisher unbekannt. Sogenannte periphere T-Helferzellen (TPH) spielen im Kontext zahlreicher Autoimmunerkrankungen eine entscheidende Rolle bei der Aktivierung autoreaktiver B-Zellen. Ziel dieser Arbeit war daher die phänotypische und funktionelle Analyse von PD-1hiCXCR5-CD4+ TPH-Zellen, sowie deren Verteilung in der Synovialflüssigkeit von Patienten unterschiedlicher Subgruppen der JIA.
Hierzu wurden Phänotyp und Zytokinprofil von PD-1hiCD4+ T-Zellen durchflusszytometrisch analysiert. Der funktionelle Einfluss von PD-1hiCD4+ T-Zellen auf die B-Zell-Differenzierung wurde mittels in vitro Kokulturen FACS-sortierter TPH-Zellen der Synovialflüssigkeit untersucht.
IL-21- und IL-17-produzierende T-Gedächtniszellen der Synovialflüssigkeit zeigten eine negative Korrelation zueinander. Die IL-21-Produktion ging besonders von PD-1hiCXCR5-HLA-DR+CD4+ T-Zellen aus, welche besonders in den Gelenken ANA-positiver JIA-Patienten akkumulierten. Diese Population zeigte phänotypische Ähnlichkeit mit TPH-Zellen und leistete in vitro effiziente B-Zell-Hilfe zu Plasmazelldifferenzierung und Immunglobulinsekretion, induzierte jedoch zudem einen CD21lo/-CD11c+T-bet+ Phänotyp in B-Zellen. Passend hierzu bestand auch ex vivo eine signifikante Korrelation zwischen TPH und CD21lo/-CD11c+T-bet+ doppelt-negativen B-Zellen (BDN).
Es konnte also die Expansion einer spezifischen T-Zellpopulation mit phänotypischen und funktionellen Charakteristika von TPH-Zellen beobachtet und deren funktioneller Zusammenhang mit CD21lo/-CD11c+T-bet+ BDN in der Synovialflüssigkeit von JIA-Patienten aufgezeigt werden. Dies könnte die Autoimmunantwort auf ubiquitäre Autoantigene innerhalb betroffener Gelenke ANA-positiver JIA-Patienten widerspiegeln.
Helically Twisted Graphene Nanoribbons: Bottom-up Stereospecific Synthesis and Characterization
(2024)
Over the past decade, substantial progress has been made in synthesizing atomically precise carbon nanostructures, with a focus on graphene nanoribbons (NRs) through advanced synthetic techniques. Despite these advancements, precise control over the stereochemistry of twisted NRs remains challenging. This thesis introduces a strategic approach to achieve absolute control over the single-handed helical conformation in a cove-edged NR, utilizing enantiopure [n]helicenes as a molecular wrench to intricately dictate the overall conformation of the NR.
Enantiopure [7]helicenes were stitched to the terminal K-regions of a conjugated pyrene NR using a stereospecific and site-selective palladium(II)-catalyzed annulative π-extension (APEX) reaction, resulting in a helically twisted NR with an end-to-end twist of 171°, the second-largest twist reported so far in the literature for twistacenes. The helical end-to-end twist increases with each addition of benzene ring to the central acene core, suggesting that the extra strain induced by the terminal [7]helicenes maintains such a high level of twist.
The quantum chemical calculations were conducted to investigate the impact of twisting on the conformational population. At room temperature, the central backbone of the nanoribbon adopts the twisted helicity opposite to that of the attached [7]helicene, constituting around 99% of the molecular population. For instance, (P)-[7]helicenes produce a left-handed helical nanoribbon, while (M)-[7]helicenes produce a right-handed helical nanoribbon. In the presence of helicenes of opposite chirality, the nanoribbon adopts a waggling conformation. The helically twisted nanoribbons are conformationally robust, as variable temperature chiroptical measurements showed no change in CD and CPL spectra. The proposed strategy, involving the late-stage addition of [n]helicene units through the APEX reaction, appears promising for streamlining the synthesis of diverse cove edge NR variants with desired conformations.
In addition to single-handed helically twisted nanoribbons, the symmetry-based functional properties of C2 and C1 symmetric pyrene-fused single and double [n]helicene compounds were studied. Owing to its higher structural rigidity, the C1 symmetric heptagonal ring-containing molecules exhibited exceptional configurational stability along with remarkable chiroptical properties compared to their C2 symmetric as well as pristine helicene congeners.
Sprech- und Stimmstörungen sind häufige Symptome der Idiopathischen Parkinson Erkrankung (IPS), wobei bis zu 89% der Patienten im Verlauf der Krankheit unter einer Dysarthrie leiden. Die Tiefenhirnstimulation des Nucleus subthalamicus (STN-DBS) ist eine etablierte Behandlung für die motorischen Symptome des IPS (Allert et al., 2004). Während STN-DBS positive Effekte auf einige Teilfunktionsbereiche der Dysarthrie zu haben scheint, berichten die meisten Studien entweder über keine Verbesserung oder eine Verschlechterung der Sprech- und Stimmfunktionen nach Implantation der STN-DBS (Tsuboi et al., 2015; Wang et al., 2003; Wertheimer et al., 2014). Klinische Erfahrungswerte sowie Fallberichte und Studien lassen vermuten, dass diese sprachtherapeutisch relevanten Nebenwirkungen unabhängig von der therapeutischen Wirksamkeit der STN-DBS sind und daher als unerwünschte, aber nicht therapieimmanente Interferenzfaktoren anzusehen sind (Bouthour et al., 2018), die es genauer zu untersuchen gilt, da die Lebensqualität von IPS-Erkrankten als stark einschränkend wahrgenommen wird (Hariz et al., 2010). Eine aufwendige und methodisch fundierte Klassifizierung wurde von Tsuboi und Kollegen vorgenommen, die im Zusammenhang mit STN-DBS fünf Cluster von Sprech- und Stimmstörungen identifizierten (Tanaka et al., 2020; Tsuboi et al., 2015, 2017). Dazu zählten die Phänotypen „spastische Dysarthrie“, „Stottern“, „rigid-hypokinetischer Typ“, „behauchte Stimme“ und „gepresste Stimme“.
Erste Hinweise lassen darauf schließen, dass die Nebenwirkungen von STN-DBS auf die Stimulation spezifischer Gehirnkreise zurückzuführen sein könnte (Fox et al., 2014). In dieser Arbeit wird eine retrospektive Studie mit STN-DBS stimulierten IPS Erkrankten vorgestellt, die sprachtherapeutisch relevante Sprech- und Stimmstörungen unter zwei Bedingungen bewertet (ein- und ausgeschaltete Stimulation) sowie eine prospektive Studie mit den beiden gleichen Bedingungen. Beide Studien haben das Ziel einer Replizierbarkeit der Ergebnisse von Tsuboi et al. (2015, 2017). Die zweite prospektive Studie bezieht außerdem konnektombasierte Daten ein.
Die Ergebnisse beider Studien lassen quantitativ keine Signifikanzen hinsichtlich der o.g. dysarthrischen Phänotypen zu, quantitativ lassen sich jedoch deutliche Tendenzen ähnlich der Ausgangsstudie erkennen. Zudem wurden das Cluster „Stottern“ in der retrospektiven Studie als weiteres möglicherweise STN-DBS immantentes Cluster identifiziert. In der prospektiven Studie wurde ein Cluster hinzugefügt, da in den Beurteilungen zusätzlich die Symptomatik „hasty speech“ oder auch „hastiges Sprechen“ beobachtet wurde.
The goal of this thesis was to investigate the influence of rotational restriction between individual parts and of the varying electron density in the bridging unit of D B A systems on the exchange interaction 2J, and thus the electronic coupling between a donor state and an acceptor state. A better understanding of how to influence the underlaying spin dynamics in such donor acceptor systems can open up the door to new technologies, such as modern molecular electronics or optoelectronic devices.
Therefore, three series of molecules consisting of a TAA electron donor, a TTC or ATC bridging unit and a PDI electron acceptor were studied. To investigate the influence of rotational restriction on 2J and the electronic coupling, a series of four rotationally hindered triads (chapter 6) was synthesised. The dihedral angle between the TAA and the TTC as well as between the TTC and the PDI was restricted by ortho methyl groups at the phenylene linkers of the connecting ends to the TTC bridge, producing a twist around the linking single bond which minimises the π overlap. The triads exhibit varying numbers of ortho methyl groups and therefore different degrees of rotational restriction. In order to shine light on the influence of varying electron density on 2J and the electronic coupling, a series of four substituted triptycene triads (chapter 7) was synthesised. The electron density in the TTC bridging unit was varied by electron donating and electron withdrawing groups in 12,13 position of the TTC bridging unit and thus varying its HOMO/LUMO energy. The last series of two anthracene bridge triads (chapter 8) connected both approaches by restricting the rotation with ortho methyl groups and simultaneously by varying the bridge energies.
In order to obtain the electronic properties, steady state absorption and emission spectra of all triads were investigated (chapter 4). Here, all triads show spectral features associated with the separate absorption bands of TAA and the PDI moiety. The reduced QYs, compared to the unsubstituted PDI acceptor, indicate a non radiative quenching mechanism in all triads. The CV data (chapter 5) were used to calculate the energies of possible CSSs and those results were used to assign the CR dynamics into the different Marcus regions. fs TA measurements reveal that all triads form a CSS upon excitation of the PDI moiety. The lifetimes of the involved states and the rate constants were determined by global exponential fits and global target analysis. The CR dynamics upon depopulation of the CSSs were investigated using external magnetic field dependent ns TA spectroscopy. The ns TA maps show that all triads recombine via CRT pathway populating the local 3PDI state in toluene and provided the respective lifetimes. The approximate QYs of triplet formation were determined using actinometry. The magnetic field dependent ns TA data reveal the exchange interaction 2J between singlet and triplet CSS for each triad. Those magnetic field dependent ns TA data in toluene were furthermore treated using a quantum mechanical simulation (done by U.E. Steiner) to extract the rate constants kT and kS for CRT and CRS, respectively. However, the error margins of kS were rather wide. Finally, the electronic couplings between the donor and the acceptor states were obtained by combining the aforementioned experimental results of the rate constants and applying the Bixon Jortner theoretical description of diabatic ET and Andersons perturbative theory of the exchange coupling. Therefore, the experimentally determined values of 2J and the calculated values of kCS and kT were used. The rate constant kS was calculated based on the electronic coupling V1CSS 1S0.
The rotationally hindered triads (chapter 6) show a strong influence of the degree of rotational restriction on the lifetimes and rate constants of the CS processes. The rate constants of CS are increasing with increasing rotational freedom. The magnetic field dependent decay data show that the exchange interactions increase with increasing rotational freedom. Based on the CR dynamics, the calculated electronic couplings of the ET processes reflect the same trend along the series. Here, only singlet couplings turned out to be strongly influenced while the triplet couplings are not. Therefore, this series shows that the ET dynamics of donor acceptor systems can strongly be influenced by restricting the rotational freedom.
In the substituted triptycene triads (chapter 7), decreasing electron density in the bridging unit causes a decrease of the CS rate constants. The magnetic field dependent decay data show that with decreasing electron density in the bridge the exchange interaction decreases. The CR dynamics-based rate constants and the electronic couplings follow the same trend as the exchange interaction. This series shows that varying the HOMO/LUMO levels of the connecting bridge between donor and acceptor strongly influences the ET processes.
In the anthracene bridge triads (chapter 8), the CS process is slow in both triads. The CR was fast in the anthracene triad and is slowed down in the methoxy substituted anthracene bridge triad. The increase of the exchange interaction with increasing electron density in the bridge was more pronounced than in the substituted triptycene triads. Thus, the variation of electron density in the bridge strongly influences the ET processes even though the rotation is restricted.
In this thesis, it was shown that the influence of the rotational hindrance as well as the electron density in a connecting bridge have strong influence on all ET processes and the electronic coupling in donor acceptor systems. These approaches can therefore be used to modify magnetic properties of new materials.
In a world of constant change, uncertainty has become a daily challenge for businesses. Rapidly shifting market conditions highlight the need for flexible responses to unforeseen events. Operations Management (OM) is crucial for optimizing business processes, including site planning, production control, and inventory management. Traditionally, companies have relied on theoretical models from microeconomics, game theory, optimization, and simulation. However, advancements in machine learning and mathematical optimization have led to a new research field: data-driven OM.
Data-driven OM uses real data, especially time series data, to create more realistic models that better capture decision-making complexities. Despite the promise of this new research area, a significant challenge remains: the availability of extensive historical training data. Synthetic data, which mimics real data, has been used to address this issue in other machine learning applications.
Therefore, this dissertation explores how synthetic data can be leveraged to improve decisions for data-driven inventory management, focusing on the single-period newsvendor problem, a classic stochastic optimization problem in inventory management.
The first article, "A Meta Analysis of Data-Driven Newsvendor Approaches", presents a standardized evaluation framework for data-driven prescriptive approaches, tested through a numerical study. Findings suggest model performance is not robust, emphasizing the need for a standardized evaluation process.
The second article, "Application of Generative Adversarial Networks in Inventory Management", examines using synthetic data generated by Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) for the newsvendor problem. This study shows GANs can model complex demand relationships, offering a promising alternative to traditional methods.
The third article, "Combining Synthetic Data and Transfer Learning for Deep Reinforcement Learning in Inventory Management", proposes a method using Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) with synthetic and real data through transfer learning. This approach trains a generative model to learn demand distributions, generates synthetic data, and fine-tunes a DRL agent on a smaller real dataset. This method outperforms traditional approaches in controlled and practical settings, though further research is needed to generalize these findings.
Plants are able to sense mechanical forces in order to defend themselves against predators,
for instance by synthesizing repellent compounds. Very few plants evolved extremely sensitive
tactile abilities that allow them to perceive, interpret and respond by rapid movement in the
milliseconds range. One such rarity is the charismatic Venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula) - a
carnivorous plant which relies on its spectacular active trapping strategy to catch its prey. The
snapping traps are equipped with touch-specialised trigger hairs, that upon bending elicit an
action potential (AP). This electrical signal originates within the trigger hairs’ mechanosensory
cells and further propagates throughout the whole trap, alerting the plant of potential prey.
Two APs triggered within thirty seconds will set off the trap and more than five APs will
initiate the green stomach formation for prey decomposition and nutrient uptake. Neither
the molecular components of the plant’s AP nor the Venus flytrap’s fast closure mechanism
have been fully elucidated yet. Therefore, the general objective of this study is to expound
on the molecular basis of touch perception: from AP initiation to trap closure and finally to
stomach formation.
The typical electrical signal in plants lasts for minutes and its shape is determined by the
intensity of the mechanical force applied. In contrast, the Venus flytrap’s one-second AP is of
all-or-nothing type, similar in shape to the animal AP. In order to gain more insight into the
molecular components that give rise to the Venus flytrap’s emblematic AP, the transcriptomic
landscape of its unique mechanotransducer - the trigger hair – was compared to the rest
of the non-specialised tissues and organs. Additionally, the transcriptome of the electrically
excitable fully-developed adult trap was compared to non-excitable juvenile traps that are
unable to produce sharp APs. Together, the two strategies helped with the identification of
electrogenic channels and pumps for each step of the AP as follows: (1) the most specific to
the trigger hair was the mechanosensitive channel DmMSL10, making up the best candidate for
the initial AP depolarization phase, (2) the K+ outward rectifier DmSKOR could be responsible
for repolarisation, (3) further, the proton pump DmAHA4, might kick in during repolarisation
and go on with hyperpolarisation and (4) the hyperpolarization- and acid-activated K+ inward
rectifier KDM1 might contribute to the re-establishment of electrochemical gradient and
the resting potential. Responsible for the AP-associated Ca2+ wave and electrical signal
propagation, the glutamate-like receptor DmGLR3.6 was also enriched in the trigger hairs.
Together, these findings suggest that the reuse of genes involved in electrical signalling in
ordinary plants can give rise to the Venus flytrap’s trademark AP.
The Venus flytrap has been cultivated ever since its discovery, generating more than one
hundred cultivars over the years. Among them, indistinguishable from a normal Venus flytrap
at first sight, the ’ERROR’ cultivar exhibits a peculiar behaviour: it is unable to snap its traps
upon two APs. Nevertheless, it is still able to elicit normal APs. To get a better understanding
of the key molecular mechanisms and pathways that are essential for a successful trap closure,
the ’ERROR’ mutant was compared to the functional wild type.
Timelapse photography led to the observation that the ’ERROR’ mutants were able to leisurely
half close their traps when repeated mechanostimulation was applied (10 minutes after 20
APs, 0.03 Hz). As a result of touch or wounding in non-carnivorous plants, jasmonic acid
(JA) is synthesized, alerting the plants of potential predators. Curiously, the JA levels were reduced upon mechanostimulation and completely impaired upon wounding in the ’ERROR’
mutant. In search of genes accountable for the ’ERROR’ mutant’s defects, the transcriptomes
of the two phenotypes were compared before and after mechanostimulation (1h after 10
APs, 0.01 Hz). The overall dampened response of the mutant compared to the wild type,
was reflected at transcriptomic level as well. Only about 50% of wild type’s upregulated
genes after touch stimulation were differentially expressed in ’ERROR’ and they manifested
only half of the wild type’s expression amplitude. Among unresponsive functional categories
of genes in ’ERROR’ phenotype, there were: cell wall integrity surveilling system, auxin
biosynthesis and stress-related transcription factors from the ethylene-responsive AP2/ERF and
C2H2-ZF families. Deregulated Ca2+-decoding as well as redox-related elements together with
JA-pathway components might also contribute to the malfunctioning of the ’ERROR’ mutant. As
the mutant does not undergo full stomach formation after mechanical treatment, these missing
processes represent key milestones that might mediate growth-defence trade-offs under JA
signalling. This confirms the idea that carnivory has evolved by recycling the already available
molecular machineries of the ubiquitous plant immune system.
To better understand the mutant’s defect in the trap snapping mechanism, the ground states
(unstimulated traps) of the two phenotypes were compared. In this case, many cell wall-related
genes (e.g. expansins) were downregulated in the ’ERROR’ mutant. For the first time, these
data point to the importance of a special cell wall architecture of the trap, that might confer
the mechanical properties needed for a functional buckling system - which amplifies the speed
of the trap closure.
This study provides candidate channels for each of the AP phases that give rise to and shape
the sharp Venus flytrap-specific AP. It further underlines the possible contribution of the cell
wall architecture to the metastable ready-to-snap configuration of the trap before stimulation
- which might be crucial for the buckling-dependent snapping. And finally, it highlights
molecular milestones linked to defence responses that ensure trap morphing into a green
stomach after mechanostimulation. Altogether, these processes prove to be interdependent
and essential for a successful carnivorous lifestyle.
Colorectal Cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer in the US. The majority of CRC cases are due to deregulated WNT-signalling pathway. These alterations are mainly caused by mutations in the tumour suppressor gene APC or in CTNNB1, encoding the key effector protein of this pathway, β-Catenin. In canonical WNT-signalling, β-Catenin activates the transcription of several target genes, encoding for proteins involved in proliferation, such as MYC, JUN and NOTCH. Being such a critical regulator of these proto-oncogenes, the stability of β-Catenin is tightly regulated by the Ubiquitin-Proteasome System. Several E3 ligases that ubiquitylate and degrade β-Catenin have been described in the past, but the antagonists, the deubiquitylases, are still unknown. By performing an unbiased siRNA screen, the deubiquitylase USP10 was identified as a de novo positive regulator of β-Catenin stability in CRC derived cells. USP10 has previously been shown in the literature to regulate both mutant and wild type TP53 stability, to deubiquitylate NOTCH1 in endothelial cells and to be involved in the regulation of AMPKα signalling. Overall, however, its role in colorectal tumorigenesis remains controversial. By analysing publicly available protein and gene expression data from colorectal cancer patients, we have shown that USP10 is strongly upregulated or amplified upon transformation and that its expression correlates positively with CTNNB1 expression. In contrast, basal USP10 levels were found in non-transformed tissues, but surprisingly USP10 is upregulated in intestinal stem cells. Endogenous interaction studies in CRC-derived cell lines, with different extend of APCtruncation, revealed an APC-dependent mode of action for both proteins. Furthermore, by utilising CRISPR/Cas9, shRNA-mediated knock-down and overexpression of USP10, we could demonstrate a regulation of β-Catenin stability by USP10 in CRC cell lines. It is widely excepted that 2D cell culture systems do not reflect complexity, architecture and heterogeneity and are therefore not suitable to answer complex biological questions. To overcome this, we established the isolation, cultivation and genetically modification of murine intestinal organoids and utilised this system to study Usp10s role ex vivo. By performing RNA sequencing, dependent on different Usp10 levels, we were able to recapitulate the previous findings and demonstrated Usp10 as important regulator of β-dependent regulation of stem cell homeostasis. Since genetic depletion of USP10 resulted in down-regulation of β-Catenin-dependent transcription, therapeutic intervention of USP10 in colorectal cancer was also investigated. Commercial and newly developed inhibitors were tested for their efficacy against USP10, but failed to significantly inhibit USP10 activity in colorectal cancer cells. To validate the findings from this work also in vivo, development of a novel mouse model for colorectal cancer has begun. By combining CRISPR/Cas9 and classical genetic engineering with viral injection strategies, WT and genetically modified mice could be transformed and, at least in some animals, intestinal lesions were detectable at the microscopic level. The inhibition of USP10, which we could describe as a de novo tumour-specific regulator of β-Catenin, could become a new therapeutic strategy for colorectal cancer patients.
Das maligne Melanom, eine der seltensten, aber gleichzeitig auch die tödlichste dermatologische Malignität, gekennzeichnet durch die Neigung zu einer frühen Metastasierung sowie die rasche Entwicklung von Therapieresistenzen, zählt zu den Tumorentitäten mit dem höchsten Anstieg der Inzidenz weltweit. Mausmodelle werden häufig verwendet, um die Melanomagenese zu erforschen und neue effektive therapeutische Strategien zu entwickeln, spiegeln die menschliche Physiologie allerdings nur unzureichend wider. In zweidimensionalen (2D) Zellkulturen mangelt es dagegen an wichtigen Komponenten der Mikroumgebung des Tumors und dem dreidimensionalen Gewebekontext. Um dieses Manko zu beheben und die Entwicklung von auf den Menschen übertragbaren Tumormodellen in der onkologischen Forschung voranzutreiben, wurde als Alternative zu Zellkulturen und Tierversuchen humane organotypische dreidimensionale (3D) Melanom-Modelle als in vitro Testsystem für die Bewertung der Wirksamkeit von anti-Tumor Therapeutika entwickelt.
Im Zuge dieser Arbeit konnte das in vitro Melanom-Modell entscheidend weiterentwickelt werden. So konnten Modelle unterschiedlichster Komplexität etabliert werden, wobei abhängig von der Fragestellung einfachere epidermale bis hin zu unterschiedlich komplexen Vollhautmodellen Anwendung finden. Durch Simulation der Tumor-Mikroumgebung eignen sich diese zur präklinischen Validierung neuer Tumor-Therapeutika, sowie der Erforschung pathologischer Vorgänge, von der Tumor-Formierung bis zur Metastasierung. Zudem konnten erfolgreich unterschiedlichste humane Melanomzelllinien ins Modell integriert werden; dadurch, dass sich diese durch ihre Treibermutationen, die zur Krankheitsentstehung beitragen, unterscheiden, stellen sie unterschiedliche Ansprüche an potentielle therapeutische Angriffspunkte und ermöglichen das Widerspiegeln vieler Melanom-Subtypen im Modell. Ferner ist es möglich, verschiedene Stadien der Tumor-Entwicklung über die Zugabe von Melanomzellen in Einzelsuspension bzw. von Melanom-Sphäroiden widerzuspiegeln. Es konnte für bestimmte Therapie-Ansätze, wie zielgerichtete Therapien, z.B. die Gabe von sich in der Klinik im Einsatz befindlicher BRAF-/MEK-Inhibitoren, gezeigt werden, dass sich die etablierten Modelle hervorragend als präklinische Testsysteme zur Wirksamkeitsbewertung eignen. Zudem bieten sich einzigartige Möglichkeiten, um die Interaktion humaner Tumorzellen und gesunder Zellen in einem Gewebeverband zu untersuchen. Ferner konnten drei neue technische Analyse-Verfahren zur nicht-invasiven Detektion der Tumor- Pro- und Regression, Beurteilung der Wirksamkeit von potenziellen Anti-Tumor-Therapien sowie der Evaluierung des Tumor-Metabolismusses implementiert werden. Perspektivisch ermöglichen immun-kompetente Melanom-Modelle die Austestung neuer Immun- und Zelltherapien in einem voll humanen System; gleichzeitig leisten die etablierten Modelle einen signifikanten Beitrag zur Reduktion von Tierexperimenten.
Der MPFL-Ersatz ist ein gängiges Therapieverfahren zur Behandlung einer patellofemoralen Instabilität. Die Operationstechniken unterscheiden sich zumeist an der patellaren Fixationsmethode und der Auswahl der Transplantate. Biomechanische Studien, welche sich mit den Eigenschaften implantatfreier ossärer Fixationsmethoden beim MPFL-Ersatz unter Verwendung künstlicher Transplantate beschäftigen gibt es nach aktueller Recherche nicht. Ziel dieser Arbeit war es, die biomechanischen Eigenschaften zweier patellarer Bohrkanalfixationstechniken beim MPFL-Ersatz mit unterschiedlichem künstlichen Bandersatzmaterial zu ermitteln. Die Hypothese war, dass die biomechanischen Eigenschaften in Elongation, Steifigkeit, Primärstabilität und maximaler Ausreißkraft mit denen der bereits etablierten Verfahren und dem nativen MPFL vergleichbar sind. Hierzu wurden 80 porcine Kniescheiben randomisiert in 8 Gruppen aufgeteilt und getestet. In den Gruppen 1-4 wurden parallele, transpatellare Bohrkanäle mit Tapes der Breiten 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm und 5 mm getestet. In den Gruppen 5-8 wurden V-Kanal-Fixationsmethoden mit Bändern der Breite von 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm und 5 mm untersucht. Zusätzlich wurden die biomechanischen Grundeigenschaften der nativen Tapes ermittelt. Alle Tests durchliefen jeweils drei Messabschnitte. Hierbei fand zunächst eine Präkonditionierung mit 10 Zyklen zwischen 5 N und 20 N statt. Daraufhin folgte eine zyklische Belastung mit 1000 Zyklen zwischen 5 N und 50 N. Am Ende wurde eine maximale Kraftapplikation bis zum Versagen der Fixationskomplexe durchgeführt. Im Rahmen der Messungen wurden Elongation, Steifigkeit, Yield Load und Maximum Load bestimmt. Es konnten Unterschiede zwischen den beiden Fixationsmethoden und den verwendeten Tapes festgestellt werden. Alle acht Gruppen zeigten eine höhere Primärstabilität als das humane MPFL. Bezogen auf die biomechanischen Eigenschaften und den Versagensmechanismus konnte in dieser Studie ein Vorteil der parallelen transpatellaren Bohrkanäle gegenüber den V- Kanaltechniken festgestellt werden. Die Werte mit der höchsten maximalen Ausreißkraft wurden in Gruppe 3 (631,6 ± 83,1 N) und Gruppe 1 (592,9 ± 170,1 N) gemessen. Diese zeigten eine höhere Primärstabilität mit geringerer Elongation und Steifigkeit im Vergleich zu den in der aktuellen Literatur beschriebenen biomechanischen Studien, welche sich mit unterschiedlichen und teilweise bereits etablierten MPFL-Ersatzverfahren beschäftigten. Eine implantatfreie MPFL-Rekonstruktion mit transpatellaren parallelen Bohrkanälen unter Verwendung eines 2 mm Fiber Tapes (Fa. Arthrex) oder eines 4 mm Tapes (Fa. Topester) könnten dementsprechend eine gute Alternative zur operativen Therapie einer patellofemoralen Instabilität sein.
In this thesis, a model system of a magnetic topological heterostructure is studied, namely a heterosystem consisting of a single ferromagnetic septuple-layer (SL) of \(MnBi_2Te_4\) on the surface of the three-dimensional topological insulator \(Bi_2Te_3\).
Using MBE and developing a specialized experimental setup, the first part of this thesis deals with the growth of \(Bi_2Te_3\) and thin films of \(MnBi_2Te_4\) on \(BaF_2\)-substrates by the co-evaporation of its binary constituents. The structural analysis is conducted along several suitable probes such as X-ray diffraction (XRD, XRR), AFM and scanning tunnelling electron microscopy (STEM). It is furthermore found that the growth of a single septuple-layer of \(MnBi_2Te_4\) on the surface of \(Bi_2Te_3\) can be facilitated.
By using X-ray absorption and circular magnetic dichroism (XAS, XMCD), the magnetic properties of \(MnBi_2Te_4\) are explored down to the monolayer limit. The layered nature of the vdW crystal and a strong uniaxial magnetocrystalline anisotropy establish stable out-of plane magnetic order at the surface of \(MnBi_2Te_4\), which is stable even down to the 2D limit. Pushing the material system to there, i.e. a single SL \(MnBi_2Te_4\) further allows to study the phase transition of this 2D ferromagnet and extract its critical behaviour with \(T_c \, = \, 14.89~k\) and \(\beta \, = \, 0.484\).
Utilizing bulk crystals of the ferromagnetic \(Fe_3GeTe_2\) as substrate allows to influence, enhance and bias the magnetism in the single SL of \(MnBi_2Te_4\). By growing heterostructures of the type \(MnBi_2Te_4\) -- n layer \(Bi_2Te_3\) -- \(Fe_3GeTe_2\)for n between 0 and 2, it is shown, that a considerable magnetic coupling can be introduced between the \(MnBi_2Te_4\) top-layer and the substrate.
Finally the interplay between topology and magnetism in the ferromagnetic extension is studied directly by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. The heterostructure is found to host a linearly dispersing TSS at the centre of the Brillouin zone. Using low temperature and high-resolution ARPES a large magnetic gap opening of \(\sim\) 35 meV is found at the Dirac point of the TSS. By following its temperature evolution, it is apparent that the scaling behaviour coincides with the magnetic order parameter of the modified surface.
The expression of the MYC proto-oncogene is elevated in a large proportion of patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Previous findings in PDAC have shown that this increased MYC expression mediates immune evasion and promotes S-phase progression. How these functions are mediated and whether a downstream factor of MYC mediates these functions has remained elusive. Recent studies identifying the MYC interactome revealed a complex network of interaction partners, highlighting the need to identify the oncogenic pathway of MYC in an unbiased manner.
In this work, we have shown that MYC ensures genomic stability during S-phase and prevents transcription-replication conflicts. Depletion of MYC and inhibition of ATR kinase showed a synergistic effect to induce DNA damage. A targeted siRNA screen targeting downstream factors of MYC revealed that PAF1c is required for DNA repair and S-phase progression. Recruitment of PAF1c to RNAPII was shown to be MYC dependent. PAF1c was shown to be largely dispensable for cell proliferation and regulation of MYC target genes.
Depletion of CTR9, a subunit of PAF1c, caused strong tumor regression in a pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma model, with long-term survival in a subset of mice. This effect was not due to induction of DNA damage, but to restoration of tumor immune surveillance.
Depletion of PAF1c resulted in the release of RNAPII with transcription elongation factors, including SPT6, from the bodies of long genes, promoting full-length transcription of short genes. This resulted in the downregulation of long DNA repair genes and the concomitant upregulation of short genes, including MHC class I genes. These data demonstrate that a balance between long and short gene transcription is essential for tumor progression and that interference with PAF1c levels shifts this balance toward a tumor-suppressive transcriptional program. It also directly links MYC-mediated S-phase progression to immune evasion. Unlike MYC, PAF1c has a stable, known folded structure; therefore, the development of a small molecule targeting PAF1c may disrupt the immune evasive function of MYC while sparing its physiological functions in cellular growth.
Ziel der vorliegenden Studie war es zu untersuchen, ob anhand geometrischer Merkmale der HWK im Kindesalter eine sichere individuelle Vorhersage der Morphologie der HWK zum Ende der Entwicklung möglich ist. Hierdurch könnte eine Individualisierung der CVM-Methode und somit eine Einschätzung des bereits verstrichenen Wachstums erfolgen.
Zu diesem Zweck wurden insgesamt 1377 FRS-Aufnahmen von 267 Patienten – 110 weibliche und 157 männliche – aus dem Archiv der Poliklinik für Kieferorthopädie des Universitätsklinikums Würzburg digitalisiert und untersucht. Die HWK wurden im Programm OnyxCeph (Herst.: Image Instruments GmbH) quantifiziert und die berechneten Werte mit der Software SPSS statistisch ausgewertet. Mittels linearer Regressionen wurde versucht, anhand der Morphologie der Wirbelkörper vor dem puberalen Wachstumsschub auf die Geometrie der HWK im Erwachsenenalter zu schließen. Zur Illustrierung wurden Streudiagramm und die dazugehörigen Abfolgen von Röntgenbildern dargestellt.
Eine Schätzung der Geometrie der HWK im Erwachsenenalter würde bei den separat betrachteten Parametern und bei einer gemeinsamen Betrachtung der Parameter kaum zu korrekten Einschätzungen führen.
Die Streudiagramme mit den Bilderabfolgen stützen diese These ebenfalls und illustrieren die mögliche Fehleinschätzung der Geometrie.
Die Ergebnisse der Studie zeigen erneut, dass die Geometrie der HWK im Erwachsenenalter sehr variabel ist, wie komplex die Entwicklung der HWK ist und dass anhand ihrer Geometrie im Kindesalter keine sichere Einschätzung der skelettalen Reife möglich ist.
Eine Individualisierung der CVM-Methode ist anhand der in dieser Studie untersuchten Parameter nicht möglich. Somit lässt sich schlussfolgern, dass die CVM-Methode nicht als alleinige Methode zur präzisen skelettalen Alterseinschätzung verlässlich genutzt werden kann, sondern für eine sichere Beurteilung weitere Reifeindikatoren hinzugezogen werden sollten. Allerdings sollten hierzu zusätzliche radiologische Untersuchungen, wie beispielsweise die Handröntgenaufnahme, nur dann durchgeführt werden, wenn diese dem ALARA-Prinzip entsprechen.
Maladaptive avoidance behaviors can contribute to the maintenance of fear, anxiety, and anxiety disorders. It has been proposed that, throughout anxiety disorder progression, extensively repeated avoidance may become a habit (i.e., habitual avoidance) instead of being controlled by internal threat-related goals (i.e., goal-directed avoidance). However, the process of the acquisition of habitual avoidance in anxiety disorders is not yet well understood. Accordingly, the current thesis aimed to investigate experimentally whether trait anxiety and anxiety disorders are associated with an increased shift from goal-directed to habitual avoidance.
The aim of Study 1 was to develop an experimental operationalization of maladaptive habitual avoidance. To this end, we adapted a commonly used action control task, the outcome devaluation paradigm. In this task, habitual avoidance was operationalized as persistent responses after extensive training to avoid an unpleasant stimulus when the aversive outcome was devalued, i.e., when individuals knew the aversive outcome could not occur anymore. We included indicators for costly and low-cost habitual avoidance, whereby habitual avoidance was associated with a monetary cost, while low-cost habitual avoidance was not associated with monetary costs. In Experiment 1 of Study 1, a pronounced costly and non-costly outcome devaluation effect was observed. However, this result may have partly resulted from trial-and-error learning or a better-safe-than-sorry strategy since not instructions about the stimulus-response-outcome contingencies after the outcome devaluation procedure had been provided to the participants. In Experiment 2 of Study 1, instructions on these stimulus-response-outcome contingencies were included to prevent the potential confounders. As a result, we observed no indicators for costly habitual avoidance, but evidence for low-cost habitual avoidance, potentially because competing goal-directed responses could easily be implemented and inhibited costly habitual avoidance tendencies.
In Study 2, the strength of habitual avoidance acquisition was compared between participants with and without anxiety disorders, using the experimental task of Experiment 1 in Study 1. The results indicated that costly and low-cost habitual avoidance was not more pronounced in participants with anxiety disorders than in the healthy control group. However, in an exploratory subgroup comparison, panic disorder predicted more substantial habitual avoidance acquisition than social anxiety disorder.
In Study 3, we investigated whether trait anxiety as a risk factor for anxiety disorders is associated with a specific increased shift from goal-directed to habitual avoidance and approach. The task from the Experiment 1 of Study 1 was adapted to include parallel versions for operationalizing habitual avoidance and habitual approach responses. Using a within-subjects design, the individuals – pre-screened for high and low trait anxiety – took part in the approach and the avoidance outcome devaluation task version. The results suggested stronger non-costly habitual responses in more highly trait-anxious individuals independent of the task version, and suggested a tendency towards an impact of trait anxiety on costly habitual approach rather than on costly habitual avoidance.
In summary, individuals with high trait anxiety or anxiety disorders did not develop habitual avoidance more readily than individuals with low trait anxiety or without anxiety disorders. Therefore, this thesis does not support the assumption that an increased tendency to acquire habitual avoidance contributes to persistent maladaptive avoidance in anxiety disorders. The thesis also contributes to the discourse on the validity of outcome devaluation studies in general by highlighting the impact of task features, such as the instructions after the outcome devaluation procedure or the task difficulty in the test phase, on the experimental results. Such validity issues may partly explain the heterogeneity of findings in research with the outcome devaluation paradigm. We suggest ways towards more valid operationalizations of habitual avoidance in future studies.
Die vorliegende Studie untersuchte den Effekt von Levosimendan auf die mitochondriale Funktionen im Herzmuskel, insbesondere im Zusammenhang mit dem Ischämie/Reperfusions-Schaden. Methoden: In der Studie wurde ein retrogrades Langendorff-Modell verwendet, um die Auswirkungen von Levosimendan, dem Ischämie/Reperfusions-Schaden sowie deren Kombination auf die mitochondrialen Funktionen im Herzmuskel zu untersuchen. Dazu wurden vier verschiedene Gruppen von Rattenherzen entsprechend den experimentellen Bedingungen perfundiert, und ihre Funktionen wurden analysiert. Ergebnisse: Der Ischämie/Reperfusions-Schaden beeinträchtigte die myokardiale Ventrikelfunktion. Zusätzlich wurde eine Hypopolarisation des mithochondrialen Membranpotentials in den mit Levosimendan oder Ischämie behandelten Gruppen festgestellt. Die ATP-Synthese in den Gruppen mit Levosimendan und Ischämie war reduziert. Schlussfolgerung: Levosimendan zeigt signifikante Einflüsse auf die Atmungsfunktion der mitochondrialen Komplexe IV und V sowie auf das Membranpotential. Diese Phänomene könnten einem mito-K+ ATP-abhängigen Mechanismus zugrunde liegen. Obwohl Levosimendan während des Ischämie/Reperfusionsschadens eine protektive Wirkung hinsichtlich einer Ca2+- Überlastung aufweist, bleibt der kumulative Einfluss der beeinträchtigten ATP-Generierung auf die gesamte Myokardfunktion zu klären.
To grow larger, insects must shed their old rigid exoskeleton and replace it with a new one. This process is called molting and the motor behavior that sheds the old cuticle is called ecdysis. Holometabolic insects have pupal stages in between their larval and adult forms, during which they perform metamorphosis. The pupal stage ends with eclosion, i.e., the emergence of the adult from the pupal shell. Insects typically eclose at a specific time during the day, likely when abiotic conditions are at their optimum. A newly eclosed insect is fragile and needs time to harden its exoskeleton. Hence, eclosion is regulated by sophisticated developmental and circadian timing mechanisms.
In Drosophila melanogaster, eclosion is limited to a daily time window in the morning, regarded as the “eclosion gate”. In a population of laboratory flies entrained by light/dark cycles, most of the flies eclose around lights on. This rhythmic eclosion pattern is controlled by the circadian clock and persists even under constant conditions.
Developmental timing is under the control of complex hormonal signaling, including the steroid ecdysone, insulin-like peptides, and prothoracicotropic hormone (PTTH). The interactions of the central circadian clock in the brain and a peripheral clock in the prothoracic gland (PG) that produces ecdysone are important for the circadian timing of eclosion. These two clocks are connected by a bilateral pair of peptidergic PTTH neurons (PTTHn) that project to the PG. Before each molt, the ecdysone level rises and then falls shortly before ecdysis. The falling ecdysone level must fall below a certain threshold value for the eclosion gate to open. The activity of PTTHn is inhibited by short neuropeptide F (sNPF) from the small ventrolateral neurons (sLNvs) and inhibition is thought to lead to a decrease in ecdysone production.
The general aim of this thesis is to further the understanding of how the circadian clock and neuroendocrinal pathways are coordinated to drive eclosion rhythmicity and to identify when these endocrinal signaling pathways are active. In Chapter I, a series of conditional PTTHn silencing-based behavioral assays, combined with neuronal activity imaging techniques such as non-invasive ARG-Luc show that PTTH signaling is active and required shortly before eclosion and may serve to phase-adjust the activity of the PG at the end of pupal development. Trans-synaptic anatomical stainings identified the sLNvs, dorsal neurons 1 (DN1), dorsal neurons 2 (DN2), and lateral posterior neurons (LPNs) clock neurons as directly upstream of the PTTHn.
Eclosion motor behavior is initiated by Ecdysis triggering hormone (ETH) which activates a pair of ventromedial (Vm) neurons to release eclosion hormone (EH) which positively feeds back to the source of ETH, the endocrine Inka cells. In Chapter II trans-synaptic tracing showed that most clock neurons provide input to the Vm and non-canonical EH neurons. Hence, clock can potentially influence the ETH/EH feedback loop. The activity profile of the Inka cells and Vm neurons before eclosion is described. Vm and Inka cells are active around seven hours before eclosion. Interestingly, all EH neurons appear to be exclusively peptidergic.
In Chapter III, using chemoconnectomics, PTTHns were found to express receptors for sNPF, allatostatin A (AstA), allatostatin C (AstC), and myosuppressin (Ms), while EH neurons expressed only Ms and AstA receptors. Eclosion assays of flies with impaired AstA, AstC, or Ms signaling do not show arrhythmicity under constant conditions. However, optogenetic activation of the AstA neurons strongly suppresses eclosion.
Chapter IV focuses on peripheral ventral’ Tracheal dendrite (v’Td) and class IV dendritic arborization (C4da) neurons. The C4da neurons mediate larval light avoidance through endocrine PTTH signaling. The v’Td neurons mainly receive O2/CO2 input from the trachea and are upstream of Vm neurons but are not required for eclosion rhythmicity. Conditional ablation of the C4da neurons or torso (receptor of PTTH) knock-out in the C4da neurons impaired eclosion rhythmicity. Six to seven hours before eclosion, PTTHn, C4da, and Vm neurons are active based on ARG-Luc imaging. Thus, C4da neurons may indirectly connect the PTTHn to the Vm neurons.
In summary, this thesis advances our knowledge of the temporal activity and role of PTTH signaling during pupal development and rhythmic eclosion. It further provides a comprehensive characterization of the synaptic and peptidergic inputs from clock neurons to PTTHn and EH neurons. AstA, AstC, and Ms are identified as potential modulators of eclosion circuits and suggest an indirect effect of PTTH signaling on EH signaling via the peripheral sensory C4da neurons.
Safety and tolerability of SGLT2 inhibitors in cardiac amyloidosis — a clinical feasibility study
(2024)
Sodium-glucose transport protein 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) slow the progression of renal dysfunction and improve the prognosis of patients with heart failure. Amyloidosis constitutes an important subgroup for which evidence is lacking. Amyloidotic fibrils originating from misfolded transthyretin and light chains are the causal agents in ATTR and AL amyloidosis. In these most frequent subtypes, cardiac involvement is the most common organ manifestation. Because cardiac and renal function frequently deteriorate over time, even under best available treatment, SGLT2i emerge as a promising treatment option due to their reno- and cardioprotective properties. We retrospectively analyzed patients with cardiac amyloidosis, who received either dapagliflozin or empagliflozin. Out of 79 patients, 5.1% had urinary tract infections; 2 stopped SGLT2i therapy; and 2.5% died unrelated to the intake of SGLT2i. No genital mycotic infections were observed. As expected, a slight drop in the glomerular filtration rate was noted, while the NYHA functional status, cardiac and hepatic function, as well as the 6 min walk distance remained stable over time. These data provide a rationale for the use of SGLT2i in patients with amyloidosis and concomitant cardiac or renal dysfunction. Prospective randomized data are desired to confirm safety and to prove efficacy in this increasingly important group of patients.
The immune system is responsible for the preservation of homeostasis whenever a given organism is exposed to distinct kinds of perturbations. Given the complexity of certain organisms like mammals, and the diverse types of challenges that they encounter (e.g. infection or disease), the immune system evolved to harbor a great variety of distinct immune cell populations with specialized functions. For instance, the family of T cells is sub-divided into conventional (Tconv) and unconventional T cells (UTCs). Tconv form part of the adaptive arm of the immune system and are comprised of αβ CD4+ or CD8+ cells that differentiate from naïve to effector and memory populations upon activation and are essential during infection and cancer. Furthermore, UTCs, which include γδ T cells, NKT and MAIT, are involved in innate and adaptive immune responses, due to their dual mode of activation, through cytokines (innate-like) or TCR (adaptive), and function. Despite our understanding of the basic functions of T cells in several contexts, a great number of open questions related to their basic biology remain. For instance, the mechanism behind the differentiation of naïve CD4+ and CD8+ T cells into effector and memory populations is not fully understood. Moreover, the exact function and relevance of distinct UTC subpopulations in a physiological context have not been fully clarified. Here, we investigated the factors mediating naïve CD8+ T cell differentiation into effector and memory cells. By using flow cytometry, mass spectrometry, enzymatic assays, and transgenic mouse models, we found that the membrane bound enzyme sphingomyelin-phosphodiesterase acid-like 3b (Smpdl3b) is crucial for the maintenance of memory CD8+ T cells. Our data show that the absence of Smpdl3b leads to diminished CD8+ T cell memory, and a loss of stem-like memory populations due to an aggravated contraction. Our scRNA-seq data suggest that Smpdl3b could be involved in clathrinmediated endocytosis through modulation of Huntingtin interacting protein 1 (Hip1) levels, likely regulating TCR-independent signaling events. Furthermore, in this study we explored the role of UTCs in lymph node-specific immune responses. By using transgenic mouse models for photolabeling, lymph node transplantation models, infection models and flow cytometry, we demonstrate that S1P regulates the migration of tissue-derived UTC from tissues to draining lymph nodes, resulting in heterogeneous immune responses mounted by lymph nodes draining different tissues. Moreover, our unbiased scRNAseq and single lineage-deficient mouse models analysis revealed that all UTC lineages (γδ T cells, NKT and MAIT) are organized in functional units, based on transcriptional homogeneity, shared microanatomical location and migratory behavior, and numerical and functional redundancy. Taken together, our studies describe additional cell intrinsic (Smpdl3b) and extrinsic (S1Pmediated migration) functions of sphingolipid metabolism modulating T cell biology. We propose the S1P/S1PR1/5 signaling axis as the potential survival pathway for Smpdl3b+ memory CD8+ T cells and UTCs, mainly in lymph nodes. Possibly, Smpdl3b regulates S1P/S1PR signaling by balancing ligandreceptor endocytosis, while UTCs migrate to lymph nodes during homeostasis to be exposed to specific levels of S1P that assure their maintenance. Our results are clinically relevant, since several drugs modulating the S1P/S1PR signaling axis or the levels of Smpdl3b are currently used to treat human diseases, such as multiple sclerosis and B cell-mediated diseases. We hope that our discoveries will inspire future studies focusing on sphingolipid metabolism in immune cell biology.
The Western Honeybee (Apis mellifera) is among the most versatile species in the world. Its adaptability is rooted in thousands of the differently specialized individuals acting jointly together. Thus, bees that are able to handle a certain task or condition well can back up other individuals less capable to do so on the colony level. Vice versa, the latter individuals might perform better in other situations. This evolutionary recipe for success ensures the survival of colonies despite challenging habitat conditions. In this context, the ectoparasitic mite Varroa destructor reflects the most pronounced biotic challenge to honeybees worldwide. Without proper treatment, infested colonies rapidly dwindle and ultimately die. Nevertheless, resistance behaviours against this parasite have evolved in some populations through natural selection, enabling colonies to survive untreated. In this, different behaviours appear to be adapted to the respective habitat conditions and may complement each other. Yet, the why and how of this behavioural response to the mite remains largely unknown. My thesis focuses on the biological background of Varroa-resistance traits in honeybees and presents important findings for the comprehension of this complex host-parasite interaction. Based on this, I draw implications for both, applied bee breeding and scientific investigations in the field of Varroa-resistance. Specifically, I focus on two traits commonly found in resistant and, to a lower degree, also mite-susceptible colonies: decreased mite reproduction and the uncapping and subsequent recapping of sealed brood cells. Examining failures in the reproductive success of mites as a primary mechanism of Varroa-resistance, I was able to link them to specific bee behaviours and external factors. Since mite reproduction and the brood rearing of bees are inevitably connected, I first investigated the effects of brood interruption on the reproductive success of mites. Brood interruption decreased the reproductive success of mites both immediately and in the long term. By examining the causes of reproductive failure, I could show that this was mainly due to an increased share of infertile mites. Furthermore, I proved that interruption in brood rearing significantly increased the expression of recapping behaviour. These findings consequently showed a dynamic modulation of mite reproduction and recapping, as well as a direct effect of brood interruption on both traits. To further elucidate the plasticity in the expression of both traits, I studied mite reproduction, recapping behaviour and infestation levels over the course of three years. The resulting extensive dataset unveiled a significant seasonal variation in mite reproduction and recapping. In addition, I show that recapping decreases the reproductive success of mites by increasing delayed developing female offspring and cells lacking male offspring. By establishing a novel picture-based brood investigation method, I could furthermore show that both the removal of brood cells and recapping activity specifically target brood ages in which mite offspring would be expected. Recapping, however, did not cause infertility of mites. Considering the findings of my first study, this points towards complementary mechanisms.
This underlines the importance of increased recapping behaviour and decreased mite reproduction as resistance traits, while at the same time emphasising the challenges of reliable data acquisition. To pave the way for a practical application of these findings in breeding, we then investigated the heritability (i.e., the share of genotypic variation on the observed phenotypic variation) of the accounted traits. By elaborating comparable test protocols and compiling data from over 4,000 colonies, we could, for the first time, demonstrate that recapping of infested cells and decreased reproductive success of mites are heritable (and thus selectable) traits in managed honeybee populations.
My thesis proves the importance of recapping and decreased mite reproduction as resistance traits and therefore valuable goals for breeding efforts. In this regard, I shed light on the underlying mechanisms of both traits, and present clear evidence for their interaction and heritability.
The reversible condensation of catechols and boronic acids to boronate esters is a paradigm reaction in dynamic covalent chemistry. However, facile backward hydrolysis is detrimental for stability and has so far prevented applications for boronate-based materials. Here, we introduce cubic boronate ester cages 6 derived from hexahydroxy tribenzotriquinacenes and phenylene diboronic acids with ortho-t-butyl substituents. Due to steric shielding, dynamic exchange at the Lewis acidic boron sites is feasible only under acid or base catalysis but fully prevented at neutral conditions. For the first time, boronate ester cages 6 tolerate substantial amounts of water or alcohols both in solution and solid state. The unprecedented applicability of these materials under ambient and aqueous conditions is showcased by efficient encapsulation and on-demand release of β-carotene dyes and heterogeneous water oxidation catalysis after the encapsulation of ruthenium catalysts.
