Inhibiting poly ADP-ribosylation increases fatty acid oxidation and protects against fatty liver disease

Johan Auwerx, Kristina Schoonjans, Alessia Perino, Vera Monica Lemos Da Silva, Jun Yong Kim, Dongryeol Ryu, Elena Katsyuba, Hongbo Zhang, Keir Joe Menzies, Matthias Alexander Sokrates Stein, Karim Laurent Gariani, Pooja Jha

Background & Aims: To date, no pharmacological therapy has been approved for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The aim of the present study was to evaluate the therapeutic potential of poly ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors in mouse models o ...

Induction of functional dopamine neurons from human astrocytes in vitro and mouse astrocytes in a Parkinson's disease model

Gioele La Manno

Cell replacement therapies for neurodegenerative disease have focused on transplantation of the cell types affected by the pathological process. Here we describe an alternative strategy for Parkinson's disease in which dopamine neurons are generated by dir ...

Somatosensory Cortex Plays an Essential Role in Forelimb Motor Adaptation in Mice

Alexander Mathis, Mackenzie Mathis

Our motor outputs are constantly re-calibrated to adapt to systematic perturbations. This motor adaptation is thought to depend on the ability to form a memory of a systematic perturbation, often called an internal model. However, the mechanisms underlying ...

A 30 mu W Remotely Powered Local Temperature Monitoring Implantable System

Catherine Dehollain

An implantable local temperature monitoring system for a laboratory mouse is presented. Magnetic coupling is used to remotely power the passive implant. The temperatures of two local points are monitored by thermistors. A low-power readout circuit is imple ...

A System for In Vivo Imaging of Hepatic Free Fatty Acid Uptake

Grigory Karateev

Alterations in hepatic free fatty acid (FFA) uptake and metabolism contribute to the development of prevalent liver disorders such as hepatosteatosis. However, detecting dynamic changes in FFA uptake by the liver in live model organisms has proven difficul ...

Angiotensin II infusion into ApoE(-/-) mice: a model for aortic dissection rather than abdominal aortic aneurysm?

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Lydia Aslanidou, Jessica Sordet, Bram Trachet, Alessandra Piersigilli, Patrick Segers

Aims Angiotensin II-infused ApoE(-/-) mice are a popular mouse model for preclinical aneurysm research. Here, we provide insight in the often-reported but seldom-explained variability in shape of dissecting aneurysms in these mice. Methods and results N=45 ...

Mycobacterium ulcerans Mouse Model Refinement for Pre-Clinical Profiling of Vaccine Candidates

Claudia Sala

Buruli Ulcer is a neglected tropical disease leading to extensive disabilities and morbidity in West Africa. In this paper we sought to characterize various strains of Mycobacterium ulcerans (M. ulcerans) with different origins and laboratory passage recor ...

Lactoferrin during lactation reduces lipopolysaccharide-induced brain injury

Yohan Van de Looij

Lactoferrin (Lf), component of maternal milk, has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. Neuroprotective effects of Lf on the immature brain have been recently shown in rodent models of intrauterine growth restriction and cerebral hyp ...
