Evidence for a neuromuscular circuit involving hypothalamic interleukin-6 in the control of skeletal muscle metabolism

Vera Monica Lemos Da Silva, Ludger Jan Elzuë Goeminne, Barbara Moreira Crisol, Eduardo Rochete Ropelle

Hypothalamic interleukin-6 (IL6) exerts a broad metabolic control. Here, we demonstrated that IL6 activates the ERK1/2 pathway in the ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH), stimulating AMPK/ACC signaling and fatty acid oxidation in mouse skeletal muscle. Bioinfo ...

Recent advances in trajectory inference from single-cell omics data

Bart Deplancke, Wouter Saelens

Trajectory inference methods have emerged as a novel class of single-cell bioinformatics tools to study cellular dynamics at unprecedented resolution. Initial development focused on adapting methods based on clustering or graph traversal, but recent advanc ...

Homoeolog Inference Methods Requiring Bidirectional Best Hits or Synteny Miss Many Pairs

Shaoline Sheppard

Homoeologs are pairs of genes or chromosomes in the same species that originated by speciation and were brought back together in the same genome by allopolyploidization. Bioinformatic methods for accurate homoeology inference are crucial for studying the e ...

Fast end-to-end learning on protein surfaces

Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia, Freyr Sverrisson

Proteins' biological functions are defined by the geometric and chemical structure of their 3D molecular surfaces. Recent works have shown that geometric deep learning can be used on mesh-based representations of proteins to identify potential functional s ...

Ultrafast homomorphic encryption models enable secure outsourcing of genotype imputation

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Juan Ramón Troncoso-Pastoriza, David Jules Froelicher, Jean-Philippe Léonard Bossuat, Yiping Ma

Genotype imputation is a fundamental step in genomic data analysis, where missing variant genotypes are predicted using the existing genotypes of nearby "tag"variants. Although researchers can outsource genotype imputation, privacy concerns may prohibit ge ...

Early detection and surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 genomic variants in wastewater using COJAC

Tamar Kohn, Xavier Fernandez Cassi, Federica Cariti, Alex Tunas Corzon, Timothy R. Julian, Carola Bänziger

The continuing emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern and variants of interest emphasizes the need for early detection and epidemiological surveillance of novel variants. We used genomic sequencing of 122 wastewater samples from three locations in Swi ...

Coronary Artery Disease-Associated and Longevity-Associated Polygenic Risk Scores for Prediction of Coronary Artery Disease Events in Persons Living With Human Immunodeficiency Virus: The Swiss HIV Cohort Study

Jacques Fellay, Christian Axel Wandall Thorball

Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is in part genetically determined. Aging is accentuated in people with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) (PLWH). It is unknown whether genetic CAD event prediction in PLWH is improved by applying individual polyge ...
