Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
Genetic information can be altered through the enzymatic modification of nucleotide sequences. This process, known as editing, was originally identified in the mitochondrial RNA of trypanosomes and later found to condition events as diverse as neurotransmi ...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Liver inflammation, fibrosis, and dyslipidemia are common features in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Because peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha) is highly expressed in the liver and is ...
Recent studies have established that bile salts are signaling molecules, besides their classic function in dietary lipid absorption and cholesterol metabolism. Bile salts signal by activating mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways and nuclear rec ...
Glial cells are thought to supply energy for neurotransmission by increasing nonoxidative glycolysis; however, oxidative metabolism in glia may also contribute to increased brain activity. To study glial contribution to cerebral energy metabolism in the un ...
In C. elegans, similar to in mammals, mutations in the tubby homolog, tub-1, promote increased fat deposition. Here, we show that mutation in tub-1 also leads to life span extension dependent on daf-16/FOXO. Interestingly, function of tub-1 in fat storage ...
This paper reports the allylic bromide rearrangement of 3-bromo-3-alkenyl-azetidin-2-ones, induced by m-chloroperbenzoic acid, N-bromosuccinimide or benzoylperoxide as radical initiators. The substitution of bromide by resin supported acids, followed by hy ...
Carotenoid prodn. by microorganisms, as opposed to chem. synthesis, could fulfill an ever-increasing demand for 'all natural' products. The yeast Phaffia rhodozyma has received considerable attention because it produces the red pigment astaxanthin, commonl ...
Atherosclerosis is a disease characterized by lipid accumulation in the vascular wall leading to myocardial infarction or stroke. Hypercholesterolemia is an important risk factor and current treatments are largely based on cholesterol lowering. In spite of ...
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. ...
In a systematic search for peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-gamma) target genes, we identified S3-12 and perilipin as novel direct PPAR-gamma target genes. Together with adipophilin and tail-interacting protein of 47 kDa, these genes ...
