Metabolic control analysis of the central carbon pathway in optimally grown E. coli

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Ljubisa Miskovic, Keng Cher Soh, Stefano Andreozzi

The engineering of the metabolism requires the building of reliable kinetic models of the metabolic pathways through the integration of the information from heterogeneous data sources. Unfortunately, the quantitative knowledge about fluxes, mechanisms or k ...

Mitochondrial sirtuins and metabolic homeostasis

Johan Auwerx, Eija Riitta Pirinen, Giuseppe Lo Sasso

The maintenance of metabolic homeostasis requires the well-orchestrated network of several pathways of glucose, lipid and amino acid metabolism. Mitochondria integrate these pathways and serve not only as the prime site of cellular energy harvesting but al ...

Cell metabolism monitoring using a microfluidic cartridge with enzyme-based microreactors

Nico de Rooij, Peter Van der Wal, Sara Talaei

We present a novel microfluidic approach for on-line analysis of cell metabolism by simultaneous measurement of two important indicators (glucose and lactate) in a small volume (100 µl) of cell-culture medium. The in-vitro study of cell metabolism is espec ...

The Corepressor NCoR1 Antagonizes PGC-1α and Estrogen-Related Receptor α in the Regulation of Skeletal Muscle Function and Oxidative Metabolism

Johan Auwerx

Skeletal muscle exhibits a high plasticity and accordingly can quickly adapt to different physiological and pathological stimuli by changing its phenotype largely through diverse epigenetic mechanisms. The nuclear receptor corepressor 1 (NCoR1) has the abi ...

Key electrophysiological, molecular, and metabolic signatures of sleep and wakefulness revealed in primary cortical cultures

Johan Auwerx, Richardus Houtkooper, Cyril Mikhail

Although sleep is defined as a behavioral state, at the cortical level sleep has local and use-dependent features suggesting that it is a property of neuronal assemblies requiring sleep in function of the activation experienced during prior wakefulness. He ...

Systematic characterization of flux and network thermodynamic states for identification of metabolic engineering targets

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Ljubisa Miskovic, Keng Cher Soh

In order to identify targets for metabolic engineering interventions or understand the physiology of the cell, the first and foremost prerequisite is the knowledge or a hypothesis about the intracellular network state(s). However, even with the advanced me ...
