Mfn1 Deficiency in the Liver Protects Against Diet-Induced Insulin Resistance and Enhances the Hypoglycemic Effect of Metformin

Carlos Canto Alvarez, Patrick Descombes, Sylviane Métairon, Richardus Houtkooper, Catherine Maclachlan, Joanna Ratajczak, Wen Gao

Mitochondrial function can be influenced by mitochondrial shape and connectivity with other cellular organelles through fusion and fission processes. Disturbances in mitochondrial architecture and mitochondrial fusion related genes are observed in situatio ...

Detection of hypoglycemic events through wearable sensors

Karl Aberer, Jean Paul Calbimonte Perez, Jean-Eudes Marie Ranvier

Diabetic patients are dependent on external substances to balance their blood glucose level. In order to control this level, they historically needed to sample a drop a blood from their hand and have it analyzed. Recently, other directions emerged to offer ...

Dietary restriction and Sirtuin 1 in metabolic health: connections and divergences

Carlos Canto Alvarez

Aging is the major risk factor for a constellation of multifactorial diseases, including insulin resistance, diabetes and cardiovascular complications. Dietary restriction has been shown to delay or prevent the manifestation of age-related health decline, ...

Protein acetylation in metabolism - metabolites and cofactors

Johan Auwerx, Elena Katsyuba, Hongbo Zhang, Keir Joe Menzies

Reversible acetylation was initially described as an epigenetic mechanism regulating DNA accessibility. Since then, this process has emerged as a controller of histone and nonhistone acetylation that integrates key physiological processes such as metabolis ...

Glutamate Cysteine Ligase-Modulatory Subunit Knockout Mouse Shows Normal Insulin Sensitivity but Reduced Liver Glycogen Storage

Pierre Magistretti, Kim Do

Glutathione (GSH) deficits have been observed in several mental or degenerative illness, and so has the metabolic syndrome. The impact of a decreased glucose metabolism on the GSH system is well-known, but the effect of decreased GSH levels on the energy m ...

System for Adjusting Pressure Locally Acting on the Skin and Subcutaneous Tissue

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Daniel Grivon

The invention relates to a system for adjusting pressure locally acting on the skin. Said system includes a set of adjacent modules distributed so as to form a layer. Each module includes a cushion capable of changing shape and comprising a cavity, a valve ...

REST represses a subset of the pancreatic endocrine differentiation program

Anne Grapin-Botton, Yung Hae Kim

To contribute to devise successful beta-cell differentiation strategies for the cure of Type 1 diabetes we sought to uncover barriers that restrict endocrine fate acquisition by studying the role of the transcriptional repressor REST in the developing panc ...

Metabolic Alterations Associated to Brain Dysfunction in Diabetes

João Miguel das Neves Duarte

From epidemiological studies it is known that diabetes patients display increased risk of developing dementia. Moreover, cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease (AD) are also accompanied by impaired glucose homeostasis and insulin signalling. Although ...

A Therapy Parameter-based Model for Predicting Blood Glucose Concentrations in Patients with Type 1 Diabetes

Denis Gillet, Grégory François, Alain Bock

In this paper, the problem of predicting blood glucose concentrations (BG) for the treatment of patients with type 1 diabetes, is addressed. Predicting BG is of very high importance as most treatments, which consist in exogenous insulin injections, rely on ...
