Résumé : During the trawls for exploration of mesopelagic fauna led in 2003, we note for the first time in the Bay of Biscay, the presence of the race Pseudoscopelus and Cynogadus brachicolus of which only seven specimens had been known. We also inform of the catch of one Rhadinesthes decimus and two Electrona risso above the continental shelf of the Bay. NOT CONTROLLED OCR
Au cours des chalutages d'exploration de la faune mésopélagique menés en 2003, nous signalons pour la première fois dans le golfe de Gascogne la présence du genre Pseudoscopelus et du merlu grenadier Cynogadus brachycolus dont seuls sept spécimens étaient recensés. Nous faisons également part de la capture d'un ledémon sans fin Rhadinesthes decimus et de deux lanternules courtauds Electrona risso au-dessus du talus continental du Golfe. OCR NON CONTRÔLE

Résumé : International audience
Due to shallow penetration of millimeter waves (MMW) and convection in liquid medium surrounding cells, the problem of accurate assessment of local MMW heating in in vitro experiments remains unsolved. Conventional dosimetric MMW techniques, such as infrared imaging or fiber optic (FO) sensors, face several inherent limits. Here we propose a methodology for accurate local temperature measurement and subsequent specific absorption rate (SAR) retrieval using microscale thermocouples (TC). SAR was retrieved by fitting the measured initial temperature rise to the numerical solution of an equivalent thermal model. It was found that the accuracy of temperature measurement depends on thermosensor size, that is, the smaller TC, the more accurate the temperature measurement. SAR determined using TC with lead diameters of 25 and 75m demonstrated 98.5% and 80.4% match with computed SAR, respectively. However, both TC provided the same temperature rises in long run (>10min). FO probe failed to measure adequately local heating both for short and long exposures due to the relatively large size of the probe sensor (400m) and time constant (0.6s). Calculated SAR in the cell monolayer was almost two times lower than that in the surrounding liquid. It was shown that the impact of the cell monolayer on heating due to its small thickness (5 to 10m) can be considered as negligible. Moreover, we demonstrated the possibility of accurate measurement of MMW-induced thermal pulses (up to 10 degrees C) using 25m TC. Bioelectromagnetics. 38:11-21, 2017.

Résumé : International audience
Second harmonic generation (SHG) microscopy is a powerful tool for studying submicron architecture of muscles tissues. Using this technique, we show that the canonical single frequency sarcomeric SHG intensity pattern (SHG-IP) of premetamorphic xenopus tadpole tail muscles is converted to double frequency (2f) sarcomeric SHG-IP in metamorphic climax stages due to massive physiological muscle proteolysis. This conversion was found to rise from 7% in premetamorphic muscles to about 97% in fragmented muscular apoptotic bodies. Moreover a 66% conversion was also found in non-fragmented metamorphic tail muscles. Also, a strong correlation between predominant 2f sarcomeric SHG-IPs and myofibrillar misalignment is established with electron microscopy. Experimental and theoretical results demonstrate the higher sensitivity and the supra resolution power of SHG microscopy over TPEF to reveal 3D myofibrillar misalignment. From this study, we suggest that 2f sarcomeric SHG-IP could be used as signature of triad defect and disruption of excitation–contraction coupling. As the mechanism of muscle proteolysis is similar to that found in mdx mouse muscles, we further suggest that xenopus tadpole tail resorption at climax stages could be used as an alternative or complementary model of Duchene muscular dystrophy.

Résumé : International audience
A detailed study of magnetic properties was carried out on ~60 samples from three holes cored during Integrated Ocean Drilling Program Expedition 324, Shatsky Rise. The measurements include scanning electron microscopy (SEM), hysteresis, and first-order reversal curve (FORC) diagrams, as well as measurements of susceptibility at high and low temperatures and variation of saturation isothermal magnetization at low temperature. SEM measurements show the presence of a complex mixture of Fe-Ti oxides with various Ti content x, which is confirmed by the measurements of susceptibility variation with temperature and low-temperature measurements. According to FORC diagrams, the magnetization is carried by single-domain to pseudosingle-domain grains.
