An In Vivo Microfluidic Study of Bacterial Load Dynamics and Absorption in the C. elegans Intestine

Martinus Adela Maria Gijs, Thomas Lehnert, Vittorio Viri

Caenorhabditiselegans (C. elegans) has gained importance as a model for studying host-microbiota interactions and bacterial infections related to human pathogens. Assessing the fate of ingested bacteria in the worm's intestine is therefore of great interes ...

Competence-induced type VI secretion might foster intestinal colonization by Vibrio cholerae

Melanie Blokesch

The human pathogen Vibrio cholerae exhibits two distinct lifestyles: one in the aquatic environment where it often associates with chitinous surfaces and the other as the causative agent of the disease cholera. While much of the research on V. cholerae has ...

Loss of Sirt1 function improves intestinal anti-bacterial defense and protects from colitis-induced colorectal cancer

Johan Auwerx, Kristina Schoonjans, Laurent Mouchiroud, Alessandra Piersigilli, Dongryeol Ryu, Elena Katsyuba, Giuseppe Lo Sasso

Dysfunction of Paneth and goblet cells in the intestine contributes to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and colitis-associated colorectal cancer (CAC). Here, we report a role for the NAD+-dependent histone deacetylase SIRT1 in the control of anti-bacterial ...

Intestinal bacteria induce TSLP to promote mutualistic T-cell responses

Nicola Harris, Mario Michael Zaiss, Ilaria Mosconi

Thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) is constitutively expressed in the intestine and is known to regulate inflammation in models of colitis. We show that steady-state TSLP expression requires intestinal bacteria and has an important role in limiting the ex ...

Ablation of the Tumor Suppressor Histidine Triad Nucleotide Binding Protein 1 is Protective Against Hepatic Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury

The identification of cellular pathways capable of limiting ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury remains a frontier in medicine, and its clinical relevance is urgent. Histidine triad nucleotide binding protein 1 (HINT1) is a tumor suppressor that influences a ...

Relations between perceived indoor environment characteristics and well being of occupants at individual level

Claude-Alain Roulet

Within the European research project HOPE, 97 apartmentbuildings and 67 office buildings were investigated using checklists addressing the building characteristics and self-administered questionnaires to the occupants asking their perceived comfort (therma ...

Electrical and mechanical activity of the intestine : experimental assessment and biophysical modeling

Mattia Bertschi

The intestine is today still an organ whose mechanisms of functions are not fully understood. The diffculty in its understanding comes from the fact that it is regulated by a complex network of signals of different natures. Granting that a multitude of exp ...
