Development of novel tools for imaging of metabolic fluxes in vivo

Tamara Maric

Bioluminescent imaging is a powerful technique that enables imaging in living organisms with high sensitivity, low background signal, low cost and without the need for radioactivity. The emitted photons are produced in the oxidation reaction of luciferin c ...

Targeting Mitochondrial Calcium Uptake with the Natural Flavonol Kaempferol, to Promote Metabolism/Secretion Coupling in Pancreatic beta-cells

Guillaume Jacot

Pancreatic beta-cells secrete insulin to lower blood glucose, following a meal. Maintenance of beta-cell function is essential to preventing type 2 diabetes. In pancreatic beta-cells, mitochondrial matrix calcium is an activating signal for insulin secreti ...

Biogeography and biochemistry of bile acid 7-dehydroxylation in the mammalian gut

Solenne Anne Marie Marion

Bile acids (BAs) are small molecules synthesized by the host and chemically modified by the microorganisms inhabiting the intestinal tract. The microbial transformation of BAs in the gut is critical to BA-mediated signaling as it modifies their amount and ...

Pancreatic beta cell based optical biosensor and system for continuous glucose monitoring

Catherine Dehollain, Nicolas Bouche, Christophe Boss, Bakul Jitendra Vinchhi, Ninad Dilip Agashe

A bio-electronics system that measures cytosolic [Ca2+] in vitro in the INS-1E pancreatic beta-cells using a 430 nm excitation light with the excitation wavelength of the probe being at 435 nm was successfully implemented and tested. We transfected the INS ...

Glucose transporter 2 mediates the hypoglycemia-induced increase in cerebral blood flow

Rolf Gruetter, Hongxia Lei

Glucose transporter 2 (Glut2)-positive cells are sparsely distributed in brain and play an important role in the stimulation of glucagon secretion in response to hypoglycemia. We aimed to determine if Glut2-positive cells can influence another response to ...

Protein Bioconjugation to Carbon Nanotubes for Near-Infrared Sensing

Vitalijs Zubkovs

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are a promising material for electrochemical and optical biosensing applications. Their small dimensions, large surface area, indefinite photostability, and remarkable electronic properties make SWCNTs an ideal trans ...

Glycogen metabolism is impaired in the brain of male type 2 diabetic Goto‐Kakizaki rats

João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Ana Francisca Leal Silva Soares, Sakura Sophie Nussbaum

Diabetes impacts the central nervous system predisposing to cognitive decline. While glucose is the main source of energy fueling the adult brain, brain glycogen is necessary for adequate neuronal function, synaptic plasticity and memory. In this study, we ...

Neurochemical Modifications in the Hippocampus, Cortex and Hypothalamus of Mice Exposed to Long-Term High-Fat Diet

Ana Francisca Leal Silva Soares, João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Blanca Lizarbe Serra

Metabolic syndrome and diabetes impact brain function and metabolism. While it is well established that rodents exposed to diets rich in saturated fat develop brain dysfunction, contrasting results abound in the literature, likely as result of exposure to ...

Role of metabolism and mitochondria during glucose sensing and glucose-induced dysfunction in human pancreatic beta-cells

Isabelle Chareyron

Glucose sensing and regulation of insulin secretion are the two main functions performed by the pancreatic beta-cell. Together these processes contribute to the tight control of blood glucose in our body. Compromising the ability of the beta-cells to prope ...
