Mechanisms and functions of protein S-acylation

Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg, Laurence Gouzi Abrami, Francisco De Magalhães Sarmento R De Mesquita

Over the past two decades, protein S-acylation (often referred to as S-palmitoylation) has emerged as an important regulator of vital signalling pathways. S-Acylation is a reversible post-translational modification that involves the attachment of a fatty a ...

Glycogen metabolism is impaired in the brain of male type 2 diabetic Goto‐Kakizaki rats

João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Ana Francisca Leal Silva Soares

Diabetes impacts the central nervous system predisposing to cognitive decline. While glucose is the main source of energy fueling the adult brain, brain glycogen is necessary for adequate neuronal function, synaptic plasticity and memory. In this study, we ...

Measuring glucose cerebral metabolism in the healthy mouse using hyperpolarized C-13 magnetic resonance

Rolf Gruetter, Mor-Miri Mishkovsky, Arnaud Comment

The mammalian brain relies primarily on glucose as a fuel to meet its high metabolic demand. Among the various techniques used to study cerebral metabolism, C-13 magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) allows following the fate of C-13-enriched substrates th ...

A multiscale study of the role of dynamin in the regulation of glucose uptake

Johan Auwerx, Martinus Gijs, Kristina Schoonjans, Laurent Mouchiroud, Raphaël Etienne Jean Trouillon, Keir Joe Menzies, Maria Cristina Letizia

Glucose uptake in muscle cells in response to insulin is a fundamental mechanism for metabolism. The inability of cells to mobilize the specific glucose transporter GLUT4 is believed to be at least partially accountable for diseases, like diabetes, where c ...

New optical tools for non-invasive imaging and quantification of glucose and nicotinamide riboside in living cells and animals

Aleksandra Konovalova

Glucose is one of the most important metabolites that plays a key role in living organisms, as it is the primary energy source. Glucose metabolism is also an integral part in the pathogenesis of diabetes and cancer. Despite this tremendous impact of glucos ...

Imaging liver and brain glycogen metabolism at the nanometer scale

Anders Meibom, Graham Knott, Arnaud Comment, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Yuhei Takado, Mojgan Masoodi

In mammals, glycogen synthesis and degradation are dynamic processes regulating blood and cerebral glucose-levels within a well-defined physiological range. Despite the essential role of glycogen in hepatic and cerebral metabolism, its spatiotemporal distr ...

Farnesoid X receptor inhibits glucagon-like peptide-1 production by enteroendocrine L cells

Kristina Schoonjans, Alessia Perino, Yasmine Sebti

Bile acids are signalling molecules, which activate the transmembrane receptor TGR5 and the nuclear receptor FXR. BA sequestrants (BAS) complex bile acids in the intestinal lumen and decrease intestinal FXR activity. The BAS-BA complex also induces glucago ...
