Prolyl endopeptidase-like is a (thio)esterase involved in mitochondrial respiratory chain function

Matteo Dal Peraro, Maria Josefina Marcaida Lopez

Deficiency of the serine hydrolase prolyl endopeptidase-like (PREPL) causes a recessive metabolic disorder characterized by neonatal hypotonia, feeding difficulties, and growth hormone deficiency. The pathophysiology of PREPL deficiency and the physiologic ...

Gamma Knife radiosurgery for acromegaly: Evaluating the role of the biological effective dose associated with endocrine remission in a series of 42 consecutive cases

Constantin Tuleasca

Introduction Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is a valuable treatment option for persistent and/or recurrent acromegaly secondary to growth hormone (GH) secreting pituitary adenoma (PA). Here, we assess the role of biological effective dose (BED) received b ...

Combined deletion of Glut1 and Glut3 impairs lung adenocarcinoma growth

Rolf Gruetter, Anders Meibom, Graham Knott, Bernard Lanz, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Nadine Fournier, Mario Gaetano Lepore, Etienne Meylan, Louise Helene Soegaard Jensen, Caroline Anne-Lyse Contat, Inti Zlobec, Justine Pascual, Pierre-Benoit Bernard Ancey, Silvia Sabatino, Anouk Rossier

Glucose utilization increases in tumors, a metabolic process that is observed clinically by F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (F-18-FDG-PET). However, is increased glucose uptake important for tumor cells, and which transporters are impl ...

At the Intersection of Microbiota and Circadian Clock: Are Sexual Dimorphism and Growth Hormones the Missing Link to Pathology? Circadian Clock and Microbiota: Potential Egffect on Growth Hormone and Sexual Development

Frédéric Bruno Martin Gachon, Benjamin Dieter Weger

Reciprocal interactions between the host circadian clock and the microbiota are evidenced by recent literature. Interestingly, dysregulation of either the circadian clock or microbiota is associated with common human pathologies such as obesity, type 2 dia ...

Thyrotropin-secreting pituitary adenomas: a systematic review and meta-analysis of postoperative outcomes and management

Katarzyna Pierzchala

PurposeTSH-secreting pituitary adenomas are rare pituitary tumors. An efficient treatment is essential to limit the mortality and morbidity in untreated patients. The aim of this study is to summarize the evidence about the postoperative outcomes and manag ...

The Mouse Microbiome Is Required for Sex-Specific Diurnal Rhythms of Gene Expression and Metabolism

Felix Naef, Cédric Gobet, Frédéric Bruno Martin Gachon, Benjamin Dieter Weger, Jake Yeung

The circadian clock and associated feeding rhythms have a profound impact on metabolism and the gut microbiome. To what extent microbiota reciprocally affect daily rhythms of physiology in the host remains elusive. Here, we analyzed transcriptome and metab ...

Exponential Convergence for the Fredrickson-Andersen One-Spin Facilitated Model

Thomas Mountford

We prove exponential convergence to equilibrium for the Fredrickson-Andersen one-spin facilitated model on bounded degree graphs satisfying a subexponential, but larger than polynomial, growth condition. This was a classical conjecture related to non-attra ...

Hormone receptor signaling in estrogen receptor positive breast cancer

Valentina Scabia

Estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) signaling tightly interact in controlling postnatal breast development and impinge on breast carcinogenesis. PR is a direct transcriptional target of ER signaling and ER and PR bind closely to DNA and i ...

Investigating the Biological Mechanisms underlying the Initiation of Autoimmunity against Beta Cell Antigens in Type 1 Diabetes

Chiara Cianciaruso

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease characterized by circulating autoantibodies, lymphocytic infiltration of pancreatic islets of Langerhans, and cell-specific destruction of beta cells, leading to insulin deficiency and symptomatic hyperglycemi ...

A simulation framework for humeral head translations

Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Philippe Müllhaupt, Alain Farron, Ehsan Sarshari

Humeral head translations (HHT) play a crucial role in the glenohumeral (GH) joint function. The available shoulder musculoskeletal models developed based on inverse dynamics however fall short of predicting the HHT. This study aims at developing a simulat ...

Endocrine hormones and local signals during the development of the mouse mammary gland

Cathrin Brisken, Dalya Ataca

Most of mammary gland development occurs postnatally under the control of female reproductive hormones, which in turn interact with other endocrine factors. While hormones impinge on many tissues and trigger very complex biological responses, tissue recomb ...

Modelling the effect of fluctuating herbicide concentrations on algae growth

Sylvain Coutu, Pierre-Jean Copin

Herbicide concentrations fluctuate widely in watercourses after crop applications and rain events. The level of concentrations in pulses can exceed the water chronic quality criteria. In the present study, we proposed modelling the effects of successive pu ...

Structural studies suggest a peptidoglycan hydrolase function for the Mycobacterium tuberculosis Tat-secreted protein Rv2525c

Stewart Cole, Raju Mukherjee, Sophie Magnet

Among the few proteins shown to be secreted by the Tat system in Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Rv2525c is of particular interest, since its gene is conserved in the minimal genome of Mycobacterium leprae. Previous evidence linked this protein to cell wall me ...

Long-lasting fibrin matrices ensure stable and functional angiogenesis by highly tunable, sustained delivery of recombinant VEGF(164)

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Veronica Sacchi, Mikaël Martino, Kristen Lorentz, Martin Ehrbar, Elena Groppa

Clinical trials of therapeutic angiogenesis by vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) gene delivery failed to show efficacy. Major challenges include the need to precisely control in vivo distribution of growth factor dose and duration of expression. Re ...

Simple and Rapid Method To Determine Antimycobacterial Potency of Compounds by Using Autoluminescent Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Neeraj Dhar, Ekaterina Gelman

A major obstacle in the process of discovery of drugs against Mycobacterium tuberculosis is its extremely slow growth rate and long generation time (similar to 20 to 24 h). Consequently, determination of MICs and minimum bactericidal concentrations (MBCs) ...

Impact of environmental estrogens on fish considering the diversity of estrogen signaling

Research on endocrine disruption in fish has been dominated by studies on estrogen-active compounds which act as mimics of the natural estrogen, 17 beta-estradiol (E2), and generally exert their biological actions by binding to and activation of estrogen r ...

Engineered insulin-like growth factor-1 for improved smooth muscle regeneration

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Peter Frey, Kristen Lorentz, Lirong Yang

Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) has been shown to induce potent mitogenic responses in various cell types, yet its sustained local delivery is still an underdeveloped domain in the clinic. We report here an engineered IGF-1 that facilitates extended l ...

Cyclin D1 Enhances the Response to Estrogen and Progesterone by Regulating Progesterone Receptor Expression

Cathrin Brisken

Estrogen and progesterone are the defining hormones of normal female development, and both play critical roles in breast carcinogenesis. Cyclin D1 is a breast cancer oncogene whose amplification is linked to poor prognosis in estrogen and progesterone rece ...
