TBK1 phosphorylates mutant Huntingtin and suppresses its aggregation and toxicity in Huntington's disease models

Johan Auwerx, Hilal Lashuel, Laurent Mouchiroud, Lara Petricca, Anass Chiki, Ramanath Narayana Hegde

Phosphorylation of the N‐terminal domain of the huntingtin (HTT ) protein has emerged as an important regulator of its localization, structure, aggregation, clearance and toxicity. However, validation of the effect of bona fide phosphorylation in vivo and ...

The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is increasingly used as a model for human biology. However, in vivo culturing platforms for C. elegans allowing high-content phenotyping during their life cycle in an automated fashion are lacking so far. Here, a multipl ...

A major step for the validation of medical drugs is the screening on whole organisms, which gives the systemic information that is missing when using cellular models. Caenorhabditis elegans is a soil worm that catches the interest of researchers who study ...

Automated High-Content Phenotyping Of The Nematode C. Elegans At Single Animal Resolution With A Microfluidic Platform

Johan Auwerx, Martinus Gijs, Matteo Cornaglia, Laurent Mouchiroud, Hüseyin Baris Atakan, Rongrong Xiang

In this work, we present a novel microfluidic approach to culture the nematode C. elegans from the onset of embryogenesis to the adult stage at single animal resolution. Our device allows high-throughput experimentation, high-resolution imaging, thereby pr ...

Methods of treating amyloid-beta peptide diseases

Johan Auwerx, Laurent Mouchiroud, Vincenzo Sorrentino

The present invention is directed to a method of treating an amyloid-3 peptide disease in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound that enhances mitochondrial proteostasi ...

Deguelin exerts potent nematocidal activity via the mitochondrial respiratory chain

Johan Auwerx, Martinus Gijs, Matteo Cornaglia, Laurent Mouchiroud, Abdul Jabbar

As a result of limited classes of anthelmintics and an over-reliance on chemical control, there is a great need to discover new compounds to combat drug resistance in parasitic nematodes. Here, we show that deguelin, a plant-derived rotenoid, selectively a ...
