Investigation of physiological roles of AMPK-activated protein kinase y3

Clinical trials have shown that direct activators of an evolutionary-conserved metabolic sensor, AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), are beneficial in preventing/treating a range of metabolic disorders, including type 2 diabetes. These activators, includi ...

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 ...

Ultra high magnetic field for glial contribution into brain metabolism studied by MR spectroscopy and CEST methods for molecular imaging of glycogen

Elise Marie Catherine Vinckenbosch

Magnetic resonance at ultra-high field increases signal and spectral dispersion. In this thesis, I use those characteristics to investigate three different subjects in 13C spectroscopy, hyperpolarized methods and chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST ...

Energy metabolism in the rat cortex under thiopental anaesthesia measured

Rolf Gruetter, Nathalie Just, João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Sarah Catherine Sonnay

Barbiturates, commonly used as general anaesthetics, depress neuronal activity and thus cerebral metabolism. Moreover, they are likely to disrupt the metabolic support of astrocytes to neurons, as well as the uptake of nutrients from circulation. By employ ...

High expression of the aspartate–glutamate carrier Aralar1 favors lactate consumption in CHO cell culture

Florian Maria Wurm, Lucia Baldi Unser, Martin Jordan, Mathieu Benjamin Stettler, Francesca Zagari

Process performance of mammalian cell cultures can be strongly impacted by high lactate accumulation, which can be a clone or media-dependent characteristic. In this study, the expression of specific genes was measured in several Chinese hamster ovary cell ...

Lactate metabolism shift in CHO cell culture: the role of mitochondrial oxidative activity

Florian Maria Wurm, Martin Jordan, Mathieu Benjamin Stettler, Francesca Zagari

Lactate production is monitored in industrial processes as a crucial metabolite for cultured mammalian cells. Typically lactate is strongly produced during the exponential growth phase, while its net consumption is frequently observed when cells enter into ...

Elucidating the role of neuron-astrocyte metabolic coupling in learning and memory

Monika Tadi

The brain has very high energy demands that are mainly met by the circulating blood glucose to ensure its proper functioning. Thus, it is not surprising that though the human brain weighs only 2- 3% of the body weight, it consumes approximately 25% of tota ...

Autophagy Defect Is Associated with Low Glucose-Induced Apoptosis in 661W Photoreceptor Cells

Johan Auwerx, Pénélope Andreux, Martine Emery

Glucose is an important metabolic substrate of the retina and diabetic patients have to maintain a strict normoglycemia to avoid diabetes secondary effects, including cardiovascular disease, nephropathy, neuropathy and retinopathy. Others and we recently d ...

LRH-1-dependent glucose sensing determines intermediary metabolism in liver

Johan Auwerx, Kristina Schoonjans, Norman Lionel Moullan, Chikage Mataki, Hiroyasu Yamamoto, Taoufiq Harach, Maaike Hélène Oosterveer

Liver receptor homolog 1 (LRH-1), an established regulator of cholesterol and bile acid homeostasis, has recently emerged as a potential drug target for liver disease. Although LRH-1 activation may protect the liver against diet-induced steatosis and insul ...

Restoration of direct pathway glycogen synthesis flux in the STZ-diabetes rat model by insulin administration

Ana Francisca Leal Silva Soares

Type 1 diabetes subjects are characterized by impaired direct pathway synthesis of hepatic glycogen that is unresponsive to insulin therapy. Since it is not known whether this is an irreversible defect of insulin-dependent diabetes, direct and indirect pat ...
