Mechanisms and functions of protein S-acylation

Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg, Laurence Gouzi Abrami, Francisco De Magalhães Sarmento R De Mesquita

Over the past two decades, protein S-acylation (often referred to as S-palmitoylation) has emerged as an important regulator of vital signalling pathways. S-Acylation is a reversible post-translational modification that involves the attachment of a fatty a ...

Bioengineering a glucose oxidase nanosensor for near-infrared continuous glucose monitoring

Ardemis Anoush Boghossian, Hanxuan Wang, Vitalijs Zubkovs

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) emit photostable near-infrared fluorescence that is conducive for optical glucose monitoring. Such SWCNT-based optical sensors often require the immobilization of proteins that can confer glucose selectivity and reac ...

Cost Effective Synthesis of Graphene Nanomaterials for Non-Enzymatic Electrochemical Sensors for Glucose: A Comprehensive Review

Theodoros Damartzis

The high conductivity of graphene material (or its derivatives) and its very large surface area enhance the direct electron transfer, improving non-enzymatic electrochemical sensors sensitivity and its other characteristics. The offered large pores facilit ...

Measuring Glycolytic Activity with Hyperpolarized [2H7, U-13C6] D-Glucose in the Naive Mouse Brain under Different Anesthetic Conditions

Rolf Gruetter, Bernard Lanz, Andrea Capozzi, Yves Pilloud, Emmanuelle Ines Flatt

Glucose is the primary fuel for the brain; its metabolism is linked with cerebral function. Different magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) techniques are available to assess glucose metabolism, providing complementary information. Our first aim was to in ...

Investigation of physiological roles of AMPK-activated protein kinase y3

Philipp Jurijvic Rhein

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 ...

Investigation of the specificity and mechanism of action of the ULK1/AMPK inhibitor SBI-0206965

Kei Sakamoto, Katyayanee Neopane

SBI-0206965, originally identified as an inhibitor of the autophagy initiator kinase ULK1, has recently been reported as a more potent and selective AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) inhibitor relative to the widely used, but promiscuous inhibitor Compou ...

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 ...

Feasibility of in vivo measurement of glucose metabolism in the mouse hypothalamus by (1) H-[(13) C] MRS at 14.1T

Rolf Gruetter, Hongxia Lei, Bernard Lanz, João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Antoine Timothée Cherix, Blanca Lizarbe Serra

PURPOSE: Determine the feasibility of (1) H-[(13) C] MRS in the mouse hypothalamus using a 14.1T magnet. METHODS: We optimized the design of a (1) H-[(13) C] surface coil to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio of (1) H-[(13) C] MRS in the mouse hypothalamus ...

PPAR delta Promotes Running Endurance by Preserving Glucose

Johan Auwerx, Hao Li, Vincenzo Sorrentino

Management of energy stores is critical during endurance exercise; a shift in substrate utilization from glucose toward fat is a hallmark of trained muscle. Here we show that this key metabolic adaptation is both dependent on muscle PPAR delta and stimulat ...
