Combined deletion of Glut1 and Glut3 impairs lung adenocarcinoma growth

Bernard Lanz, Graham Knott, Rolf Gruetter, Stéphanie Clerc, Nadine Fournier, Caroline Anne-Lyse Contat, Mario Gaetano Lepore, Etienne Meylan, Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Justine Pascual, Louise Helene Soegaard Jensen, Pierre-Benoit Bernard Ancey, Silvia Sabatino

Glucose utilization increases in tumors, a metabolic process that is observed clinically by F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (F-18-FDG-PET). However, is increased glucose uptake important for tumor cells, and which transporters are impl ...

Bcl-xL targeting eliminates ageing tumor-promoting neutrophils and inhibits lung tumor growth

Freddy Radtke, Nadine Fournier, Etienne Meylan, Justine Pascual, Anita Bodac, Amber Dawn Bowler

Elevated peripheral blood and tumor-infiltrating neutrophils are often associated with a poor patient prognosis. However, therapeutic strategies to target these cells are difficult to implement due to the life-threatening risk of neutropenia. In a genetica ...

GLUT1 Expression in Tumor-Associated Neutrophils Promotes Lung Cancer Growth and Resistance to Radiotherapy

Nadine Fournier, Caroline Anne-Lyse Contat, Etienne Meylan, Justine Pascual, Gael Luis Boivin, Pierre-Benoit Bernard Ancey, Silvia Sabatino

Neutrophils are the most abundant circulating leucocytes and are essential for innate immunity. In cancer, pro- or antitumor properties have been attributed to tumor-associated neutrophils (TAN). Here, focusing on TAN accumulation within lung tumors, we id ...

The adipocyte differentiation protein APMAP is an endogenous suppressor of Aβ production in the brain

Bernard Schneider, Patrick Fraering, Mitko Dimitrov, Sébastien Mosser, Justine Pascual

The deposition of amyloid-beta (Aβ) aggregates in the brain is a major pathological hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Aβ is generated from the cleavage of C-terminal fragments of the amyloid precursor protein (APP-CTFs) by γ-secretase, an intramembrane ...

Durable and controlled depletion of neutrophils in mice

Caroline Anne-Lyse Contat, Etienne Meylan, Jessica Christine Vazquez, Justine Pascual, Julien Robert Rémi Faget, Gael Luis Boivin, Pierre-Benoit Bernard Ancey, Aspasia Gkasti

Neutrophils are an essential part of the innate immune system. To study their importance, experimental studies often aim to deplete these cells, generally by injecting anti-Ly6G or anti-Gr1 antibodies. However, these approaches are only partially effective ...
