Interference of silver nanoparticles with essential metal homeostasis in a novel enterohepatic fish in vitro system

Kristin Schirmer

Silver nanoparticle toxicity has been extensively studied in several vertebrate cells. Its correlation with cellular essential metal homeostasis, however, has largely been overlooked. In this study, we used a novel in vitro model of a fish enterohepatic sy ...

Endogenous nicotinamide riboside metabolism protects against diet-induced liver damage

Carlos Canto Alvarez, Joanna Ratajczak, Miriam Valera Alberni

Supplementation with the NAD(+) precursor nicotinamide riboside (NR) ameliorates and prevents a broad array of metabolic and aging disorders in mice. However, little is known about the physiological role of endogenous NR metabolism. We have previously show ...

Beneficial effects of Human Mesenchymal Stromal Cells on Porcine Hepatocyte Viability and Albumin Secretion

Sandrine Gerber, Solène Marcelle Françoise Marie Passemard, François Rémi Pierre Noverraz, Luca Szabó

Porcine hepatocytes transplanted during acute liver failure might support metabolic functions until the diseased liver recovers its function. Here, we isolated high numbers of viable pig hepatocytes and evaluated hepatocyte functionality after encapsulatio ...

Improving Efficacy and Safety of Agonistic Anti-CD40 Antibody Through Extracellular Matrix Affinity

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz, Martina Damo, Lambert Charles François Potin

CD40 is an immune costimulatory receptor expressed by antigen-presenting cells. Agonistic anti-CD40 antibodies have demonstrated considerable antitumor effects yet can also elicit serious treatment-related adverse events, such as liver toxicity, including ...

Brain metabolism during Chronic Hepatic Encephalopathy studied by in vivo 1H and 31P MRS

Veronika Rackayová

Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is a powerful tool increasingly used in biomedical research and also in clinical practice. This thesis focused on the improvements of in vivo 31P MRS and 31P magnetization transfer methods at high magnetic field (9.4T ...

Diurnal Oscillations in Liver Mass and Cell Size Accompany Ribosome Assembly Cycles

Frédéric Bruno Martin Gachon, Daniel Alain Dominique Marie Mauvoisin, Jingkui Wang

The liver plays a pivotal role in metabolism and xenobiotic detoxification, processes that must be particularly efficient when animals are active and feed. A major question is how the liver adapts to these diurnal changes in physiology. Here, we show that, ...

MRS studies of neuroenergetics and glutamate/glutamine exchange in rats: Extensions to hyperammonemic models

Cristina Ramona Cudalbu Moldovan, Bernard Lanz, Veronika Rackayová

In vivo Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy is a useful tool to characterize brain biochemistry as well as its alteration in a large number of major central nervous system diseases. The present review will focus on the study of the glutamate-glutamine cycle, a ...

Intestinal NCoR1, a regulator of epithelial cell maturation, controls neonatal hyperbilirubinemia

Johan Auwerx

Severe neonatal hyperbilirubinemia (SNH) and the onset of bilirubin encephalopathy and kernicterus result in part from delayed expression of UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 (UGT1A1) and the inability to metabolize bilirubin. Although there is a good unders ...

Acylated heptapeptide binds albumin with high affinity and application as tag furnishes long-acting peptides

Christian Heinis, Alessandro Zorzi, Jonas Alfred Karl Wilbs, Kaycie Marie Butler, Simon Jan Middendorp

The rapid renal clearance of peptides in vivo limits this attractive platform for the treatment of a broad range of diseases that require prolonged drug half-lives. An intriguing approach for extending peptide circulation times works through a 'piggy-back' ...

Inhibiting poly ADP-ribosylation increases fatty acid oxidation and protects against fatty liver disease

Johan Auwerx, Jun Yong Kim, Kristina Schoonjans, Alessia Perino, Dongryeol Ryu, Elena Katsyuba, Hongbo Zhang, Keir Joe Menzies, Pooja Jha, Karim Laurent Gariani, Vera Monica Lemos Da Silva

Background & Aims: To date, no pharmacological therapy has been approved for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The aim of the present study was to evaluate the therapeutic potential of poly ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors in mouse models o ...
