PPAR gamma Ligands Switched High Fat Diet-Induced Macrophage M2b Polarization toward M2a Thereby Improving Intestinal Candida Elimination

Obesity is associated with a chronic low-grade inflammation that predisposes to insulin resistance and the development of type 2 diabetes. In this metabolic context, gastrointestinal (GI) candidiasis is common. We recently demonstrated that the PPAR gamma ...

An exercise intervention to improve diabetic patients' gait in a real-life environment

Kamiar Aminian, Stéphane Armand

Aims: Gait characteristics and balance are altered in diabetic individuals. Little is known about possible treatment strategies. This study evaluated the effect of a specific training program on diabetic patients' gait. ...

Wnt Signaling in Pancreas Development and Cancer

During early somite stages of development, the broad endoderm-derived foregut and hindgut territories become further subdivided along the antero-posterior axis into organs. One of these organs is the pancreas which serves two major physiological functions: ...

The transcription factor Rfx3 regulates beta-cell differentiation, function, and glucokinase expression

Philipp Bucher

OBJECTIVE: Pancreatic islets of perinatal mice lacking the transcription factor Rfx3 exhibit a marked reduction in insulin-producing beta-cells. The objective of this work was to unravel the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying this deficiency. RES ...

In vivo imaging of murine endocrine islets of Langerhans with extended-focus optical coherence microscopy

Theo Lasser, Michael Friedrich, Rainer Leitgeb, Anne Grapin-Botton, Martin Villiger, Joan Goulley

Aims/hypothesis Structural and functional imaging of the islets of Langerhans and the insulin-secreting beta cells represents a significant challenge and a long-lasting objective in diabetes research. In vivo microscopy offers a valuable insight into beta ...

Caffeine consumption attenuates neurochemical modifications in the hippocampus of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats

Rolf Gruetter, João Miguel das Neves Duarte

Type 1 diabetes can affect hippocampal function triggering cognitive impairment through unknown mechanisms. Caffeine consumption prevents hippocampal degeneration and memory dysfunction upon different insults and is also known to affect peripheral glucose ...

PGC-1alpha, SIRT1 and AMPK, an energy sensing network that controls energy expenditure

Johan Auwerx, Carlos Canto Alvarez

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1-alpha (PGC-1alpha) has been extensively described as a master regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis. However, PGC-1alpha activity is not constant and can be finely tuned in r ...

The prolyl-aminodipeptidases and their inhibitors as therapeutic targets for fibrogenic disorders

Sandrine Gerber

Many biologically active peptides are protected from general proteolytic degradation by evolutionary conserved prolines (Pro), due to conformational constraints imposed by the Pro residue. Thus the biological importance of prolyl-specific peptidases points ...

Molecular selective interface for an implantable glucose sensor based on the viscosity variation of a sensitive fluid containing dextran and Concanavalin A

Antoine Barraud

Diabetes mellitus is a globally growing disease with more than 180 million cases worldwide and no cure exists. In order to minimize the many medical complications, tight glucose monitoring has been shown to be the best alternative. Many diabetics require i ...

Homing of GAD65 specific autoimmunity and development of insulitis requires expression of both DQ8 and human GAD65 in transgenic mice

Steinunn Baekkeskov Hanahan

MHC-class II genes determine susceptibility in human type-1 diabetes. In their context, presentation of target antigen(s) results in autoimmunity and b-cell destruction. An animal model, in which human b-cell autoantigen(s) are presented to effector cells ...
