Obesity-associated deficits in inhibitory control are phenocopied to mice through gut microbiota changes in one-carbon and aromatic amino acids metabolic pathways
Background Inhibitory control (IC) is critical to keep long-term goals in everyday life. Bidirectional relationships between IC deficits and obesity are behind unhealthy eating and physical exercise habits. Methods We studied gut microbiome composition and ...
BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP2021Common and distinct brain networks of autoscopic phenomena
Olaf Blanke, Lukas Heydrich, Eva Blondiaux
Objective Autoscopic phenomena (AP) are illusory own body reduplications characterized by the visual perception of a second own body in extrapersonal space, and include three main forms: autoscopic hallucination (AH), heautoscopy (HAS) and out-of-body-expe ...
2021The role and transcriptional regulation of FAM46A in adipocyte differentiation
Obesity is currently a leading global health concern. Treatments include undergoing a weight-loss regimen. However, successful weight-loss is variable, where the heritability of obesity is considered part of the cause. This patient variability to weight-lo ...

Olaf Blanke, Alessandra Griffa, Jevita Potheegadoo, Patric Hagmann, Kim Do, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Roy Salomon, Giulio Rognini, Eva Blondiaux, Giedre Stripeikyte, Pierre Progin
Psychosis, characterized by hallucinations and delusions, is a common feature of psychiatric disease, especially schizophrenia. One prominent theory posits that psychosis is driven by abnormal sensorimotor predictions leading to the misattribution of self- ...
2021The role of medial amygdala inhibitory neurons in regulating social behavior
Aggression is an evolutionary conserved social behavior that is necessary for an animalÂŽs survival. The neural substrates coordinating aggression are known to exist in the amygdala and the hypothalamus. While the medial amygdala (MeA) and the ventrolatera ...
EPFL2021Methods for functional connectivity and morphometry in neonatal neuroimaging to study neurodevelopment.
Preterm birth is a major pediatric health problem that perturbs the genetically determined program of corticogenesis of the developing brain. As a consequence, prematurity has been strongly associated with adverse long-term neurodevelopmental outcome that ...
EPFL2021Short Article Hypothalamic bile acid-TGR5 signaling protects from obesity
Kristina Schoonjans, Alessia Perino
Bile acids (BAs) improve metabolism and exert anti-obesity effects through the activation of the Takeda G protein-coupled receptor 5 (TGR5) in peripheral tissues. TGR5 is also found in the brain hypothalamus, but whether hypothalamic BA signaling is implic ...
CELL PRESS2021Temporal complexity of fMRI is reproducible and correlates with higher order cognition
Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Amir Hossein Omidvarnia
It has been hypothesized that resting state networks (RSNs), extracted from resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rsfMRI), likely display unique temporal complexity fingerprints, quantified by their multiscale entropy patterns (McDonough and ...
2021Differential roles of GDF15 and FGF21 in systemic metabolic adaptation to the mitochondrial integrated stress response
Perturbation of mitochondrial proteostasis provokes cell autonomous and cell non-autonomous responses that contribute to homeostatic adaptation. Here, we demonstrate distinct metabolic effects of hepatic metabokines as cell non-autonomous factors in mice w ...
CELL PRESS2021Dysmaturation Observed as Altered Hippocampal Functional Connectivity at Rest Is Associated With the Emergence of Positive Psychotic Symptoms in Patients With 22q11 Deletion Syndrome
Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Maude Schneider, Farnaz Delavari, Daniela Maria Zöller, Karin Bortolin
BACKGROUND: Hippocampal alterations are among the most replicated neuroimaging findings across the psychosis spectrum. Moreover, there is strong translational evidence that preserving the maturation of hippocampal networks in mice models prevents the progr ...
