Mechanopathology of biofilm-like Mycobacterium tuberculosis cords

John McKinney, Graham Knott, Neeraj Dhar, Nicolas Jean Philippe Guex, Jessica Sordet, Maxime Jan, Richa Mishra, Mélanie Thérèse Marie Hannebelle, Vivek Vijay Thacker, Kunal Sharma

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) cultured axenically without detergent forms biofilm-like cords, a clinical identifier of virulence. In lung-on-chip (LoC) and mouse models, cords in alveolar cells contribute to suppression of innate immune signaling via nu ...

Molecular insights into sex-specific metabolic alterations in Alzheimer’s mouse brain using multi-omics approach

Nicolas Jean Philippe Guex, Maxime Jan, Jean-Yves Chatton

Towards mouse genetic-specific RNA-sequencing read mapping

Maxime Jan, Ioannis Xenarios

Genetic variations affect behavior and cause disease but understanding how these variants drive complex traits is still an open question. A common approach is to link the genetic variants to intermediate molecular phenotypes such as the transcriptome using ...

Lipid biosynthesis enzyme Agpat5 in AgRP-neurons is required for insulin-induced hypoglycemia sensing and glucagon secretion

Maxime Jan

The counterregulatory response to hypoglycemia that restores normal blood glucose levels is an essential physiological function. It is initiated, in large part, by incompletely characterized brain hypoglycemia sensing neurons that trigger the secretion of ...

Sleep-wake-driven and circadian contributions to daily rhythms in gene expression and chromatin accessibility in the murine cortex

Felix Naef, Maxime Jan, Jake Yeung, Ioannis Xenarios

The timing and duration of sleep results from the interaction between a homeostatic sleep-wake-driven process and a periodic circadian process, and involves changes in gene regulation and expression. Unraveling the contributions of both processes and their ...
