Photobiology and metabolic interactions in the symbiotic jellyfish Cassiopea

The symbiont-bearing jellyfish Cassiopea live a benthic lifestyle, positioning themselves upside-down on sediments in shallow waters to allow their endosymbiotic algae to photosynthesize in the sunlight. Over the last decades Cassiopea has become increasin ...

Integrative systems analysis identifies genetic and dietary modulators of bile acid homeostasis

Kristina Schoonjans, Johan Auwerx, Alexis Maximilien Bachmann, Maroun Bou Sleiman, Alessia Perino, Amir Banaei Esfahani, Karim Laurent Gariani, Giacomo Vincenzo Giorgio Von Alvensleben, Hao Li, Qingyao Huang, Laura Alejandra Velazquez Villegas, Yu Sun, Xiaoxu Li, Ludger Jan Elzuë Goeminne, Jéromine Imbach

Bile acids (BAs) are complex and incompletely understood enterohepatic-derived hormones that control whole-body metabolism. Here, we profiled postprandial BAs in the liver, feces, and plasma of 360 chowor high-fat-diet-fed BXD male mice and demonstrated th ...

AXIN1 knockout does not alter AMPK/mTORC1 regulation and glucose metabolism in mouse skeletal muscle

Jonas Roland Knudsen

Key points Tamoxifen-inducible skeletal muscle-specific AXIN1 knockout (AXIN1 imKO) in mouse does not affect whole-body energy substrate metabolism. AXIN1 imKO does not affect AICAR or insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in adult skeletal muscle. AXIN1 imKO ...

Functional Characterization of Nucleoid Associated Proteins Acting as Global Transcription Factors in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Nina Theres Odermatt

The fatal lung disease tuberculosis is caused by the airborne Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a versatile pathogen adapted to rapidly changing environments. Instead of being eradicated by phagocytic cells of its human host, bacilli tune macrophages to support ...

The Pollutant Diethylhexyl Phthalate Regulates Hepatic Energy Metabolism via Species-Specific PPAR alpha-Dependent Mechanisms

Johan Auwerx

BACKGROUND: The modulation of energetic homeostasis by pollutants has recently emerged as a potential contributor to the onset of metabolic disorders. Diethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP) is a widely used industrial plasticizer to which humans are widely exposed. ...
