New tool for studying the biosynthetic role of glucose in brain at the nanometer scale

Anders Meibom, Graham Knott, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Arnaud Comment, Yuhei Takado, Mojgan Masoodi

Background: The brain consumes a considerable amount of glucose relative to its size. Brain glucose is a source of energy, mainly via oxidative phosphorylation, as well as a source of building blocks for synthesising macromolecules. Little is known about t ...

Impact of hepatic lipid accumulation and composition on glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity: a longitudinal study in male and female mice

Rolf Gruetter, Hongxia Lei, Ana Francisca Leal Silva Soares

Background and aims: Metabolic disruptions characterized by high hepatic lipid content (HLC) are associated with impairments in whole body glucose homeostasis. To gain insight on the role of hepatic lipids in the metabolic performance in the absence artifi ...

Toward Quantitative Measurements of Enzyme Kinetics by Dissolution Dynamic Nuclear Polarization

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Aurélien Bornet, Sami Jannin, Jonas Milani, Daniel Abergel

Dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (D-DNP) experiments enabled us to study the kinetics of the enzymatic phosphorylation reaction of glucose to form glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) by hexokinase (HK), with or without the presence of an excess of G6P, which ...

Liver glucose metabolism plays a central role in glucose homeostasis and may also regulate feeding and energy expenditure. Here we assessed the impact of glucose transporter 2 (Glut2) gene inactivation in adult mouse liver (LG2KO mice). Loss of Glut2 suppr ...

Brain Glucose Transport and Phosphorylation Under Acute Insulin-Induced Hypoglycemia in Mice: An 18F-FDG PET Study

Rolf Gruetter, João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Malte Alf

We addressed the questions of how cerebral glucose transport and phosphorylation change under acute hypoglycemia and what the underlying mechanisms of adaptation are. Methods: Quantitative 18F-FDG PET combined with the acquisition of real-time arterial inp ...

Predicting Fish Acute Toxicity Using a Fish Gill Cell Line-Based Toxicity Assay

Kristin Schirmer

The OECD test guideline 203 for determination of fish acute toxicity requires substantial numbers of fish and uses death as an apical end point. One potential alternative are fish cell lines; however, several studies indicated that these appear up to sever ...

Amer Chemical Soc2013

Background: The control of the functional pancreatic beta-cell mass serves the key homeostatic function of releasing the right amount of insulin to keep blood sugar in the normal range. It is not fully understood though how beta-cell mass is determined. ...

Definition of in Vitro Microenvironments to Characterize and Control Pancreatic Progenitor Expansion and Differentiation

Chiara Greggio

The pancreas plays a central role in metabolism. The exocrine pancreas, composed of ductal and acinar cells, secretes and delivers digestive enzymes into the duodenum where they contribute to food digestion. The endocrine pancreas, constituted by the islet ...
