Dietary L-Glu sensing by enteroendocrine cells adjusts food intake via modulating gut PYY/NPF secretion

Amino acid availability is monitored by animals to adapt to their nutritional environment. Beyond gustatory receptors and systemic amino acid sensors, enteroendocrine cells (EECs) are believed to directly percept dietary amino acids and secrete regulatory ...

Kidney-Specific Membrane-Bound Serine Proteases CAP1/Prss8 and CAP3/St14 Affect ENaC Subunit Abundances but Not Its Activity

Simona Frateschi, Sévan Stroh

The serine proteases CAP1/Prss8 and CAP3/St14 are identified as ENaC channel-activating proteases in vitro, highly suggesting that they are required for proteolytic activation of ENaC in vivo. The present study tested whether CAP3/St14 is relevant for rena ...

Cell administration routes for heart failure: a comparative re-evaluation of the REGENERATE-DCM and REGENERATE-IHD trials

Didier Locca

Aims: Given the logistical issues surrounding intramyocardial cell delivery, we sought to address the efficacy of the simpler, more accessible intracoronary route by re-evaluating REGENERATE-DCM and REGENERATE-IHD (autologous cell therapy trials for heart ...

Short Article Hypothalamic bile acid-TGR5 signaling protects from obesity

Kristina Schoonjans, Alessia Perino

Bile acids (BAs) improve metabolism and exert anti-obesity effects through the activation of the Takeda G protein-coupled receptor 5 (TGR5) in peripheral tissues. TGR5 is also found in the brain hypothalamus, but whether hypothalamic BA signaling is implic ...

Increasing heart vascularisation after myocardial infarction using brain natriuretic peptide stimulation of endothelial and WT1(+) epicardial cells

Na Li

Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) treatment increases heart function and decreases heart dilation after myocardial infarction (MI). Here, we investigated whether part of the cardioprotective effect of BNP in infarcted hearts related to improved neovascularis ...

Cell-specific image-guided transcriptomics identifies complex injuries caused by ischemic acute kidney injury in mice

Pavlo Khodakivskyi

The kidney's inherent complexity has made identifying cell-specific pathways challenging, particularly when temporally associating them with the dynamic pathophysiology of acute kidney injury (AKI). Here, we combine renal cell-specific luciferase reporter ...
