Measuring Glycolytic Activity with Hyperpolarized [2H7, U-13C6] D-Glucose in the Naive Mouse Brain under Different Anesthetic Conditions

Rolf Gruetter, Bernard Lanz, Mor-Miri Mishkovsky, Andrea Capozzi, Yves Pilloud, Emmanuelle Ines Flatt

Glucose is the primary fuel for the brain; its metabolism is linked with cerebral function. Different magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) techniques are available to assess glucose metabolism, providing complementary information. Our first aim was to inv ...

Multiple nest entrances alter foraging and information transfer in ants

Bertrand Eric Collignon

The ecological success of ants relies on their ability to discover and collectively exploit available resources. In this process, the nest entrances are key locations at which foragers transfer food and information about the surrounding environment. We ass ...

Detecting overlapping spatial clusters of high sugar-sweetened beverage intake and high body mass index in a general population: a cross-sectional study

Stéphane Joost, Idris Guessous, David Nicolas De Ridder

Background: Evidence suggests that sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) intake frequency is positively associated with the risk of obesity and diabetes. We aimed to identify populations and areas in high need for interventions to reduce SSB consumption using a f ...

Cryogenic Vibrational Spectroscopy Provides Unique Fingerprints for Glycan Identification

Thomas Rizzo, Michael Zachary Kamrath, Chiara Masellis

The structural characterization of glycans by mass spectrometry is particularly challenging. This is because of the high degree of isomerism in which glycans of the same mass can differ in their stereochemistry, attachment points, and degree of branching. ...

A mild biomass pretreatment using gamma-valerolactone for concentrated sugar production

Jeremy Luterbacher, Li Shuai, Ydna Marie Questell-Santiago

Here we report that gamma-valerolactone (GVL), a biomass-derived solvent, can be used to facilitate the mild pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass. An 80% GVL, 20% water solvent system was used to pretreat hardwood at the mild temperature of 120 degrees ...

Enhanced Conversion of Carbohydrates to the Platform Chemical 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural Using Designer Ionic Liquids

Paul Joseph Dyson, Rosario Scopelliti, Gabor Laurenczy, Zhaofu Fei, Ning Yan, Sviatlana Siankevich

5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is a key platform chemical that may be obtained from various cellulosic (biomass) derivatives. Previously, it has been shown that ionic liquids (ILs) facilitate the catalytic conversion of glucose into HMF. Herein, we demonstr ...

A Short and Convenient Synthesis of 1-Deoxymannojirimycin (DMJ) and N-oxy-Analogues from D-Fructose

Pierre Vogel, Sandrine Gerber

The ketonitrone 8 was prepared from D-fructose as an inexpensive starting material, and was used in a stereoselective synthesis of 1-deoxymannojirimycin (4), its previously unknown N-hydroxy analogue 15, as well as the polyhydroxylated ketonitrone 14. The ...

In vivo magnetic resonance studies of glycogen and hyperpolarized lithium in the rat brain

Ruud van Heeswijk

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is used for a large array of applications, ranging from chemical characterization to oil drilling to medical imaging. In these fields NMR is used as an investigational tool, but new techniques and applications are continuou ...

Recent Synthetic Approaches Toward Non-anomeric Spiroketals in Natural Products

Pierre Vogel, Sandrine Gerber, Sylvain Favre

Many natural products of biological interest contain [6,5]- and [6,6]-spiroketal moieties that can adopt various configurations, benefiting or not from anomeric conformation stabilizing effects. The spiroketal fragments are often important for the biologic ...
