Innovative Biomarkers for Obesity and Type 1 Diabetes Based on Bifidobacterium and Metabolomic Profiling

Stephan Morgenthaler, Paul Refinetti, Mariya Yuryevna Skvortsova

The role of Bifidobacterium species and microbial metabolites such as short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and human milk oligosaccharides in controlling intestinal inflammation and the pathogenesis of obesity and type 1 diabetes (T1D) has been largely studied ...

Alpha1-antitrypsin improves survival in murine abdominal sepsis model by decreasing inflammation and sequestration of free heme

Florian Maria Wurm

Background Excessive inflammation, hemolysis, and accumulation of labile heme play an essential role in the pathophysiology of multi-organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) in sepsis. Alpha1-antitrypsin (AAT), an acute phase protein with heme binding capacity, i ...

New roles of Bicc1 in cilia formation, cell adhesion, and in adult kidneys

Céline Gagnieux

Bicaudal-C1 (Bicc1), an RNA-Binding protein, is a ciliopathy-associated protein. In development, Bicc1 is necessary for left-right axis specification. Loss of Bicc1 in mice also associates with polycystic kidney development. In human, two hereditary polycy ...

NAD(+) Metabolism and Interventions in Premature Renal Aging and Chronic Kidney Disease

Vincenzo Sorrentino

Premature aging causes morphological and functional changes in the kidney, leading to chronic kidney disease (CKD). CKD is a global public health issue with far-reaching consequences, including cardio-vascular complications, increased frailty, shortened li ...

Kidney-Specific Membrane-Bound Serine Proteases CAP1/Prss8 and CAP3/St14 Affect ENaC Subunit Abundances but Not Its Activity

Simona Frateschi, Sévan Stroh

The serine proteases CAP1/Prss8 and CAP3/St14 are identified as ENaC channel-activating proteases in vitro, highly suggesting that they are required for proteolytic activation of ENaC in vivo. The present study tested whether CAP3/St14 is relevant for rena ...

Review on Uric Acid Recognition by MOFs with a Future in Machine Learning

Shaswati Mandal

Uric acid (UA) is produced from purine metabolism and serves as a prevalent biomarker for multiple diseases including cancer. Hyperuricemia or hypouricemia can cause multiple dysfunctions throughout the biological processes. Consequently, there is a pressi ...

Optical Urea Sensing in Sweat for Kidney Healthcare by Sensitive and Selective Non-enhanced Raman Spectroscopy

Christian Enz, Sandro Carrara, Assim Boukhayma, Ata Jedari Golparvar, Mattia Petrelli

Sweat biomarker analysis has attracted much interest in applications ranging from sports to wearable healthcare. Among all the sweat biomolecules, abnormal urea levels have been linked to several complications, particularly renal dysfunction. Here, we repo ...

Assessment of Stiffness of Large to Small Arteries in Multistage Renal Disease Model: A Numerical Study

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Patrick Segers, Vasiliki Bikia

Arterial stiffness (AS), as assessed via pulse wave velocity (PWV), is a major biomarker for cardiovascular risk assessment in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, the mechanisms responsible for the changes in PWV in the presence of kidney ...

Improved Cell-Free Transcription-Translation Reactions in Microfluidic Chemostats Augmented with Hydrogel Membranes for Continuous Small Molecule Dialysis

Sebastian Maerkl, Barbora Lavickova, Laura Sophie Grasemann

Increasing the protein production capacity of the PURE cell-free transcription-translation (TX-TL) system will be key to implementing complex synthetic biological circuits, and to establishing a fully self-regenerating system as a basis for the development ...

Fate of parasites and viruses in calcium hydroxide-treated urine in relation to temperature and moisture content

Loïc Decrey, Tamar Kohn

Human urine can be used as fertilizer and technologies, such as alkaline-urine treatment, are being developed to enable easier re-use. There is, however, a risk of pathogens being present in the urine. This hygiene assessment examined inactivation of three ...

Identification of genes required for host-cell adhesion and antibiotic persistence of uropathogenic Escherichia coli via high-content screening

Thomas Marie Simonet

Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) are the most common bacterial pathogens causing urinary tract infections (UTIs). Driven by the development of antibiotic resistant UPEC strains, UTIs have become a major public health issue and generate substantial hea ...

Context-dependent enhancer function revealed by targeted inter-TAD relocation

Denis Duboule, Guillaume Andrey, Christopher Chase Bolt, Lucille Delisle, Aurélie Hintermann

Here the authors show that a strong enhancer sequence can be controlled by the chromatin environment provided by a topologically associated domain (TAD) located nearby. An enhancer relocated by homologous recombination takes all the hallmarks of its new ne ...

Prospective motion correction in kidney MRI using FID navigators

Tobias Kober

Purpose Abdominal MRI scans may require breath-holding to prevent image quality degradation, which can be challenging for patients, especially children. In this study, we evaluate whether FID navigators can be used to measure and correct for motion prospec ...

Assessment of Aspartate and Bicarbonate Produced From Hyperpolarized [1-13C]Pyruvate as Markers of Renal Gluconeogenesis

Arnaud Comment, Hikari Ananda Infinity Yoshihara

As both a consumer and producer of glucose, the kidney plays a significant role in glucose homeostasis. Measuring renal gluconeogenesis requires invasive techniques, and less invasive methods would allow renal gluconeogenesis to be measured more routinely. ...

Tissue Engineering with Mechanically Induced Solid‐Fluid Transitions

Jon Märki, Matthias Rüegg, Mahmut Selman Sakar, Erik Mailand, Ece Özelçi, Nikolaos Bouklas, Odysseas Konstantinos Chaliotis, Jaemin Kim

Epithelia are contiguous sheets of cells that stabilize the shape of internal organs and support their structure by covering their surfaces. They acquire diverse morphological forms appropriate for their specific functions during embryonic development, suc ...

Differential role of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide deficiency in acute and chronic kidney disease

Joseph Rutkowski, Renuga Devi Rajaram, Elena Katsyuba, Johan Auwerx, Adrienne Joëlle Laurence Mottis

Background. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(+)) is a ubiquitous coenzyme involved in electron transport and a cosubstrate for sirtuin function. NAD(+) deficiency has been demonstrated in the context of acute kidney injury (AKI). Methods. We studied ...

Mesomelic dysplasias associated with the HOXD locus are caused by regulatory reallocations

Denis Duboule, Christopher Chase Bolt, Lucille Delisle

Mesomelic dysplasia, a severe shortening and bending of the limb, has been linked to rearrangements in the HoxD cluster in humans and mice. Here the authors engineer a 1 Mb inversion including the HoxD gene cluster and use this model to provide a mechanist ...

Mechanistic studies of DNP and applications of hyperpolarized probes to study renal physiology and metabolism

Alice Radaelli

Dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (dDNP) is a powerful technique that enhances the magnetic resonance signal of nuclear spins by several orders of magnitude. DNP relies on the principle of cross-relaxation by electron spins driven out of equilibrium ...

Renal tubular arginase-2 participates in the formation of the corticomedullary urea gradient and attenuates kidney damage in ischemia-reperfusion injury in mice

Dmitri Firsov, Jean-Luc Barras, Nicolas Dattner, Hikari Ananda Infinity Yoshihara

Aim Arginase 2 (ARG2) is a mitochondrial enzyme that catalyses hydrolysis ofl-arginine into urea andl-ornithine. In the kidney, ARG2 is localized to the S3 segment of the proximal tubule. It has been shown that expression and activity of this enzyme are up ...
