Reconstruction and analysis of genome-scale metabolic networks in single organisms and microbial communities

Microorganisms are a key component in the chain of life. They are essential for agriculture, produce a large proportion of oxygen, and play a central role in the cycle of elements. Microorganisms are widely used in the production of food and alcoholic beve ...

Molecular Regulation of Muscle Stem Cell Fate during Skeletal Muscle Regeneration and Aging

Sara Ancel

Muscle stem cells (MuSCs) are the primary source of myogenic progenitors during muscle repair and are essential for the long-term regenerative capacity of skeletal muscle. Following myofiber injury, MuSCs transition from a quiescent to an activated state, ...

Radical-free hyperpolarized MRI using endogenously occurring pyruvate analogues and UV-induced nonpersistent radicals

Rolf Gruetter, Andrea Capozzi, Josefina Adriana Maria Bastiaansen, Hikari Ananda Infinity Yoshihara, Alice Radaelli, Claudia Christina Zanella, Lionel Pierre Arn

It was recently demonstrated that nonpersistent radicals can be generated in frozen solutions of metabolites such as pyruvate by irradiation with UV light, enabling radical-free dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization. Although pyruvate is endogenous, the ...

Algorithms and flowchart for the design of synthetic biochemical networks

Homa Mohammadi Peyhani

New drugs are needed to assure effective therapies for previously untreated diseases, emerging diseases, and personalized medicine, but the process of drug development is complex, costly, and time-consuming. This is especially problematic considering that ...

Modeling metabolic and signaling pathways in cancer cells

Maria Masid Barcon

Cancer is a leading cause of death in the world, and the mechanisms that underlie this disease are still not completely understood. As cancer develops and progresses, cells undergo a diversity of mutations that sustain their rapid proliferation and the eva ...

Exploring Biosynthetic Pathways for the Production of Five Methyl Ethyl Ketone Precursors

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Ljubisa Miskovic, Meriç Ataman, Noushin Hadadi, Milenko Tokic

Limited reserves of oil and natural gas and the establishment of new environmental policies sparked off intensive research towards sustainable production of the 2nd generation of biofuels, with Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK) being one promising fuel candidate. ...

Room temperature decarboxylative cyanation of carboxylic acids using photoredox catalysis and cyanobenziodoxolones: a divergent mechanism compared to alkynylation

Jérôme Waser, Matthew Wodrich, Franck Le Vaillant

The one-step conversion of aliphatic carboxylic acids to the corresponding nitriles has been accomplished via the merger of visible light mediated photoredox and cyanobenziodoxolones (CBX) reagents. The reaction proceeded in high yields with natural and no ...

Integration of Metabolic, Regulatory and Signaling Networks Towards Analysis of Perturbation and Dynamic Responses

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Meriç Ataman, Vikash Kumar Pandey

The expanding generation of dynamic biological data requires approaches that integrate and analyze information from different types of cellular processes –metabolism, regulation, and signaling–, and ultimately increase our insights into the cell behavior u ...

Urolithin A induces mitophagy and prolongs lifespan in C. elegans and increases muscle function in rodents

Johan Auwerx, Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Patrick Aebischer, Laurent Mouchiroud, Pénélope Andreux, Dongryeol Ryu, Evan Graehl Williams, Elena Katsyuba, Norman Lionel Moullan, Pooja Jha, Damien Sébastien Huzard, Giuseppe Lo Sasso

The biological effects of urolithins remain poorly characterized, despite wide-spread human exposure via the dietary consumption of their metabolic precursors, the ellagitannins, which are found in the pomegranate fruit, as well as in nuts and berries. We ...
