Dysfunction of homeostatic control of dopamine by astrocytes in the developing prefrontal cortex leads to cognitive impairments

Graham Knott, Corrado Cali, Nicole Déglon, Tamara Zehnder, Luca Pucci, Andrea Chicca

Astrocytes orchestrate neural development by powerfully coordinating synapse formation and function and, as such, may be critically involved in the pathogenesis of neurodevelopmental abnormalities and cognitive deficits commonly observed in psychiatric dis ...

The metabolite BH4 controls T cell proliferation in autoimmunity and cancer

Kai Johnsson

Genetic regulators and environmental stimuli modulate T cell activation in autoimmunity and cancer. The enzyme co-factor tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) is involved in the production of monoamine neurotransmitters, the generation of nitric oxide, and pain(1,2). ...

Arylvinylpiperazine Amides, a New Class of Potent Inhibitors Targeting QcrB of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Stewart Cole, Andrej Benjak, Anthony Vocat, Jérémie Piton, Shi-Yan Caroline Foo, Andréanne Lupien, Raphael Christopher Sommer

New drugs are needed to control the current tuberculosis (TB) pandemic caused by infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. We report here on our work with AX-35, an arylvinylpiperazine amide, and four related analogs, which are potent antitubercular agent ...

RdhC, a family of membrane-bound flavoproteins involved in electron transfer in organohalide respiration ?

Julien Maillard, Romain Hamelin, Mathilde Stéphanie Willemin, Géraldine Florence Buttet

Organohalide respiration (OHR) is a bacterial energy metabolism making use of halogenated compounds – like tetrachloroethene (PCE), a major pollutant – as terminal electron acceptors. Three models of electron transport chain exist for OHR [1], however many ...

Implication of individual differences in glucocorticoid responsiveness to stress in the development of psychopathology-like behaviour and underlying neurobiology

Sophie Elizabeth Walker

The period around puberty is a critical window in development. It is a time of neuroendocrine and neuroanatomical lability, rendering individuals highly sensitive to stress. Indeed, early adversity increases risk for psychopathology. The mechanisms via whi ...

NAD(+) Metabolism and the Control of Energy Homeostasis: A Balancing Act between Mitochondria and the Nucleus

Johan Auwerx, Carlos Canto Alvarez, Keir Joe Menzies

NAD(+) has emerged as a vital cofactor that can rewire metabolism, activate sirtuins, and maintain mitochondrial fitness through mechanisms such as the mitochondrial unfolded protein response. This improved understanding of NAD(+) metabolism revived intere ...

Social deficits induced by peripubertal stress in rats are reversed by resveratrol

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Olivia Zanoletti, Guillaume Poirier

Adolescence is increasingly recognized as a critical period for the development of the social system, through the maturation of social competences and of their underlying neural circuitries. The present study sought to test the utility of resveratrol, a di ...

Enzyme and Acid Deconjugation of Plasma Sulfated Metanephrines

Sandrine Gerber

Background: Total (i.e. free + sulfated) metanephrines in plasma is a biomarker for the diagnosis of pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma. Sulfated metanephrines must be completely deconjugated by perchloric acid hydrolysis or sulfatase treatment prior to analyt ...

Lack of Enantioselectivity in the SULT1A3-catalyzed Sulfoconjugation of Normetanephrine Enantiomers: An In Vitro and Computational Study

Sandrine Gerber, Jean-Baptiste Gualtierotti

(1R)-Normetanephrine is the natural stereoisomeric substrate for sulfotransferase 1A3 (SULT1A3)-catalyzed sulfonation. Nothing appears known on the enantioselectivity of the reaction despite its potential significance in the metabolism of adrenergic amines ...
