      Biothermology International Meeting
        Thanks to Presenters for their big contribution to this meeting!

        1st Biothermology International Meeting


        was held on Jun 21st, 2016, at Parc 55 SanFrancisco Hotel's meeting room (Fillmore, at 4th Floor), from 19:00 to 22:00.
        This event is acceppted as an ancillary meeting by ISSCR2016 CEO, Nancy Witty on May 10th.

        epub or pdf program file is here.

        Target Audience

        Biophysics people who are interested in differentiation process of stem cells, especially who explore new indexes to investigate, including temperature of cells/tissues or intracellular spaces and organelles are expected. Engineering people who develop sensors/detectors of temperature and so on may find collaborating opportunities at the meeting. Medical/pharmaceutical researchers may have interest the quantitative indexes for their applications.

        Aim of this Meeting

        This meeting focuses mainly about Biothermology, which has just launched in Japan by researchers of Biophysics and Cell/Molecular Biology.
        Our plan is to bring together the interesting target and new technology at one place and try to find solutions for biological problems, for example, how to analyse the intracellular dynamics of temperature to estimate the impact of it on neural differentiation etc.

        Presenter and Moderator
        Noriko Hiroi (Keio Univ. Japan)
        "Environment gives forces, cells produce energy; how their combinations affect the fate of a cell?"
        Abstract: Analysing intracellular temperature is a nowadays topic under the development of detection technologies. The heterogeneity of temperature at each subdomain of a cell shocked researchers because the discovered difference of temperature between subdomains was unexpectedly large to explain based on the assumption that a cell is a water vacuole. I will start this talk by sharing basic knowledge about Biothermology and will show how far this knowledge may bring us to the exit of 105 gap issue. The discussion among the presenters should be expanded to the effect of the temperature at cellular differentiation and its combination with forces, including shear stress and tension between a cell and its environment. My talk will close by presenting the probable effect of the combination of force and temperature distribution on cellular differentiation.

        Presenters

        1.Hiroki Ota (UC Berkeley, USA)
        "Highly deformable devices and systems using liquid metal for healthcare and medical application"
        Abstract: Mechanically deformable devices and sensors enable conformal coverage of electronic systems on curved and soft surfaces. Sensors utilizing liquids confined in soft templates as the sensing component present the ideal platform for such applications, as liquids are inherently more deformable than solids. However, to date, liquid-based devices have been limited to metal lines based on a single liquid component given the difficulty in the fabrication and system integration. Here we demonstrate a platform for the fabrication of liquid- devices and 3-D liquid-state system, presenting an important advancement for expanding liquid electronics. The device architecture and fabrication scheme we present are generic for different sensing liquids, enabling demonstration of sensors responsive to different stimuli. As a proof of concept, we demonstrate temperature, humidity and oxygen sensors by using different ionic liquids, exhibiting high sensitivity with excellent mechanical deformability arising from the inherent property of the liquid phase and 3-D liquid system having active and passive liquid devices by 3-D printer.

        3.Shinji Masui (CiRA, Japan)
        "Regulation of cellular identity by a transcriptional mechanism responding to physical force."
        Abstract: Multicellular organisms are maintained by homeostasis of cellular differentiation states. However, many are still unclear about the mechanisms how these states are maintained. Previously we have shown that transcription factors maintaining expression of cell type-specific genes inhibit reprogramming to pluripotency. Taking advantage of this mechanism, in this study we performed screening for genes maintaining cell states using reprogramming system in neural progenitor cells. As a result, we found that β-actin, specifically its monomer, maintained cell type-specific gene expression through suppressing the activity of a transcription factor Srf. We further show that suppressing the β-actin-Srf pathway contributes to the maintenance of cell states in multiple cell types of diverse lineages. We discuss a possible mechanism how Srf regulates cell type-specific genes through their regulatory elements.

        4.Alex Dann (Stanford Univ, USA)
        "Fluorescent molecular tension sensors measure force transmission by single integrins in living cells."
        Abstract: Integrins mediate cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix and enable the construction of complex, multicellular organisms, yet fundamental aspects of integrin-based adhesion remain poorly understood. Notably, recent estimates of the load experienced by integrins span two orders of magnitude, a discrepancy arising from limitations inherent to existing techniques. Here we use FRET-based molecular tension sensors (MTSs) to directly measure the distribution of forces experienced by individual integrins in living cells. We find that a large fraction of integrins bear modest loads of 1-3 pN, while subpopulations bearing higher loads are enriched within adhesions. Further, our data indicate that the synergy site, a secondary binding site thought to reinforce the fibronectinα5β1-integrin bond, affects biochemical recognition but not overall force generation in our system. We suggest that a substantial population of integrins exerting forces well below their load-bearing capacities can provide cells and tissues with physical resiliency.

        ACKNOWLEDGEMENT



        1. Thank you to all the speakers and the participants of International Workshop on Quantitative Biology 2017 on April 14th, Fri., and 15th Sat. 2017, at Keio University, Yokohama, Japan.

        The 4th International workshop on Quantitative Biology (IWQB-2017) had been held to discuss about the following topics;
        Cellular decisions are frequently made in a dynamic manner. This temporal complexity added to spatial intricacies makes it difficult to interpret cell biology data alone. Systematic advances in technologies for high-throughput imaging, image organisation and analysis are enabling new quantitative studies of dynamic cellular processes.
        This s workshop is organized on conceptual and technological advances in Quantitative Cell Biology: (i) emerging technologies of image acquisition and analysis and (ii) Dynamic decisions at the sub-cellular level.

        Topics included:
        - Cell division mechanisms
        - Cytoskeletal regulation
        - Emerging microscopy tools
        - Advances in Image analysis methods
        - Novel fluorescent probes
        - Automation of big-data-experiments

        The talks of the conference were in English to help the international audience that would be attending the conference.

        We also had poster sessions as well and so we encourage students and young researchers to participate at the conference.
