Prior exercise in humans redistributes intramuscular GLUT4 and enhances insulin -stimulated sarcolemmal and endosomal GLUT4 translocation

Objective: Exercise is a cornerstone in the management of skeletal muscle insulin-resistance. A well-established benefit of a single bout of exercise is increased insulin sensitivity for hours post-exercise in the previously exercised musculature. Although ...

Competitive Neural Layer-based Method to Identify People with High Risk for Diabetic Foot

André Anjos

Background and objective: To automatically identify patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) who have high risk of developing diabetic foot, via an unsupervised machine learning technique. Methods: We collected a new database containing 54 known risk factors f ...

Synchronous nonmonotonic changes in functional connectivity and white matter integrity in a rat model of sporadic Alzheimer's disease

Bernard Lanz, Katarzyna Pierzchala, Ileana Ozana Jelescu, Carole Poitry-Yamate, Ting Yin, Yujian Diao

Brain glucose hypometabolism has been singled out as an important contributor and possibly main trigger to Alzheimer's disease (AD). Intracerebroventricular injections of streptozotocin (icv-STZ) cause brain glucose hypometabolism without systemic diabetes ...

A fully joint Bayesian quantitative trait locus mapping of human protein abundance in plasma

Anthony Christopher Davison, Hélène Ruffieux, Jörg Hager, Radu Popescu

Molecular quantitative trait locus (QTL) analyses are increasingly popular to explore the genetic architecture of complex traits, but existing studies do not leverage shared regulatory patterns and suffer from a large multiplicity burden, which hampers the ...

Identifying neurodevelopmental anomalies of white matter microstructure associated with high risk for psychosis in 22q11.2DS

Maude Schneider, Daniela Maria Zöller, Marie Schaer, Maria Carmela Padula

Disruptions of white matter microstructure have been widely reported in schizophrenia. However, the emergence of these alterations during preclinical stages remains poorly understood. 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome (22q11.2DS) represents a unique model to study ...

Dynamics of brain function in preterm-born young adolescents

Lorena Gonçalves de Alcântara e Freitas Krikler

Preterm birth is a major risk factor for neurodevelopment impairments often only appearing later in life. The brain is still at a high rate of development during adolescence, making this a promising window for intervention. It is thus crucial to understand ...

Gene replacement therapy provides benefit in an adult mouse model of Leigh syndrome

Johan Auwerx

Mutations in nuclear-encoded mitochondrial genes are responsible for a broad spectrum of disorders among which Leigh syndrome is the most common in infancy. No effective therapies are available for this severe disease mainly because of the limited capabili ...

N-acetylaspartate availability is essential for juvenile survival on fat-free diet and determines metabolic health

Johan Auwerx, Dina Hofer

N-acetylaspartate (NAA) is synthesized by aspartate N-acetyltransferase (gene: Nat8l) from acetyl-coenzyme A and aspartate. In the brain, NAA is considered an important energy metabolite for lipid synthesis. However, the role of NAA in peripheral tissues r ...

Endogenous nicotinamide riboside metabolism protects against diet-induced liver damage

Carlos Canto Alvarez, Sofia Moco, Joanna Ratajczak, Miriam Valera Alberni

Supplementation with the NAD(+) precursor nicotinamide riboside (NR) ameliorates and prevents a broad array of metabolic and aging disorders in mice. However, little is known about the physiological role of endogenous NR metabolism. We have previously show ...

High frequency shift in Carotid Sinus Nerve and Sympathetic Nerve activity in Type 2 Diabetic Rat Model

Silvestro Micera

Overactivity of the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) is associated to several cardiovascular and metabolic dysfunctions, such as hypertension and insulin resistance. Indirect biochemical measurements and surgical manipulations have provided preliminary evi ...
