Comparative effect of growth media on the monitoring of E. coli inactivation and regrowth after solar and photo-Fenton treatment

César Pulgarin, Stefanos Giannakis, Rosa Mosteo

This study intends to assess the cultivability of photo-treated Escherichia coil K-12 on media With different selectivity (PCA, LBA, T-7, T-7 + TTC, VRBA and MAC) and to establish optimal conditions for bacterial recuperation. For these purposes, immediate ...

Functional intestinal bile acid 7-alpha-dehydroxylation by Clostridium scindens associated with protection from C. difficile infection in a gnotobiotic mouse model

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Laure Menin, Lyne Desharnais

Bile acids, important mediators of lipid absorption, also act as hormone-like regulators and as antimicrobial molecules. In all these functions their potency is modulated by a variety of chemical modifications catalyzed by bacteria of the healthy gut micro ...

Bile acid-FXR alpha pathways regulate male sexual maturation in mice

Kristina Schoonjans

The bile acid receptor Farnesol-X-Receptor alpha (FRX alpha) is a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily. FRX alpha is expressed in the interstitial compartment of the adult testes, which contain the Leydig cells. In adult, short term treatment (12 hou ...

Farnesoid X receptor inhibits glucagon-like peptide-1 production by enteroendocrine L cells

Kristina Schoonjans, Alessia Perino, Yasmine Sebti

Bile acids are signalling molecules, which activate the transmembrane receptor TGR5 and the nuclear receptor FXR. BA sequestrants (BAS) complex bile acids in the intestinal lumen and decrease intestinal FXR activity. The BAS-BA complex also induces glucago ...

Bile Acids Trigger GLP-1 Release Predominantly by Accessing Basolaterally Located G Protein-Coupled Bile Acid Receptors

Kristina Schoonjans

Bile acids are well-recognized stimuli of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) secretion. This action has been attributed to activation of the G protein-coupled bile acid receptor GPBAR1 (TGR5), although other potential bile acid sensors include the nuclear far ...

PON3 knockout mice are susceptible to obesity, gallstone formation, and atherosclerosis

Johan Auwerx, Jiujiu Yu

We report the engineering and characterization of paraoxonase-3 knockout mice (Pon3KO). The mice were generally healthy but exhibited quantitative alterations in bile acid metabolism and a 37% increased body weight compared to the wild-type mice on a high ...

Bile Acids Alter Male Fertility Through G-Protein-Coupled Bile Acid Receptor 1 Signaling Pathways in Mice

Kristina Schoonjans

Bile acids (BAs) are signaling molecules that are involved in many physiological functions, such as glucose and energy metabolism. These effects are mediated through activation of the nuclear and membrane receptors, farnesoid X receptor (FXR-alpha) and TGR ...

Another Shp on the Horizon for Bile Acids

Kristina Schoonjans, Alessia Perino

Bile acid metabolism is tightly controlled due to the toxic effects of bile acid overload. In this issue, research from the Feng lab reports Shp2 as a novel integrator of hepatic bile acid and FGF15/FGF19 signaling, adding another layer of complexity to th ...

An organic hydrophilic dye for water-based dye-sensitized solar cells

Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Liang Sun

In this study we report the first organic hydrophilic dye employed for 100% water-based electrolyte DSSCs. We show that the replacement of alkyl by glycolic chains in the dye structure is able to provide excellent wettability, resulting in an efficient sys ...

Dye adsorption on TiO2 electrodes studied using modulated photocurrent measurements

Ulf Anders Hagfeldt

An in-situ modulated photocurrent technique to study kinetics of dye adsorption and to determine binding constants of dye molecules on the TiO 2 surface is presented. An AC-photocurrent signal is measured, when a TiO2 electrode is in contact with the dye b ...
