Metabolic dependencies of metastasis-initiating cells in breast cancer

Metastasis is the process by which cancer cells from the primary tumor travel through the blood stream to generate a secondary tumor site in a distant organ. Although very few cells are able to make this journey, the resulting effects are dire since most c ...

Detection of myocardial medium‐chain fatty acid oxidation and tricarboxylic acid cycle activity with hyperpolarized [1– 13 C]octanoate

Arnaud Comment, Josefina Adriana Maria Bastiaansen, Hikari Ananda Infinity Yoshihara

Under normal conditions, the heart mainly relies on fatty acid oxidation to meet its energy needs. Changes in myocardial fuel preference are noted in the diseased and failing heart. The magnetic resonance signal enhancement provided by spin hyperpolarizati ...

Viral Metagenomic Content Reflects Seawater Ecological Quality in the Coastal Zone

Grégoire Marie Octave Edouard Michoud, Stylianos Fodelianakis

Viruses interfere with their host's metabolism through the expression of auxiliary metabolic genes (AMGs) that, until now, are mostly studied under large physicochemical gradients. Here, we focus on coastal marine ecosystems and we sequence the viral metag ...

Alterations of Brain Energy Metabolism in Type 2 Diabetic Goto-Kakizaki Rats Measured In Vivo by (13)C Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy

Rolf Gruetter, João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Sarah Catherine Sonnay, Freya-Merret Girault

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is associated with deterioration of brain structure and function. Here, we tested the hypothesis that T2D induces a reorganization of the brain metabolic networks that support brain function. For that, alterations of neuronal and glia ...

Adenosine A(1) receptors control the metabolic recovery after hypoxia in rat hippocampal slices

João Miguel das Neves Duarte

Adenosine is a neuromodulator that protects neurons from hypoxia. This effect is attributed to the ability of adenosine A(1) receptors (A(1)R) to inhibit excitatory synaptic transmission. However, A(1)R activation also protects non-brain tissues from hypox ...

Exploring enhancement of 1,4-butanediol production in recombinant E. coli using Large-scale kinetic models

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Ljubisa Miskovic, Anirikh Chakrabarti, Stefano Andreozzi

Rational metabolic engineering methods are increasingly employed in designing the commercially viable processes for the production of chemicals relevant to pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and food and beverage industries. With the growing availability of om ...

Exploring enhancement of 1,4-butanediol production in recombinant E. coli using large-scale kinetic models

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Ljubisa Miskovic, Keng Cher Soh, Anirikh Chakrabarti, Stefano Andreozzi

Engineering of microbial cell factories requires a simultaneous optimization of several criteria such as productivity, yield, titer, stress tolerance, all the while retaining the efficient, cost-effective and robust process. One of the most prominent examp ...

Amyloid-beta aggregates cause alterations of astrocytic metabolic phenotype: impact on neuronal viability

Pierre Magistretti, Hilal Lashuel, Igor Allaman, Thierry Laroche, David Viertl

Amyloid-beta (Abeta) peptides play a key role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease and exert various toxic effects on neurons; however, relatively little is known about their influence on glial cells. Astrocytes play a pivotal role in brain homeostas ...

Evaluation of brain mitochondrial glutamate and alpha-ketoglutarate transport under physiologic conditions

Rolf Gruetter

Some models of brain energy metabolism used to interpret in vivo (13)C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopic data assume that intramitochondrial alpha-ketoglutarate is in rapid isotopic equilibrium with total brain glutamate, most of which is cytosolic. ...

Cellular mechanisms of brain energy metabolism and their relevance to functional brain imaging

Pierre Magistretti, Luc Pellerin

Despite striking advances in functional brain imaging, the cellular and molecular mechanisms that underlie the signals detected by these techniques are still largely unknown. The basic physiological principle of functional imaging is represented by the tig ...
