Plant sterols and cholesterol metabolism are associated with five-year cognitive decline in the elderly population

Mehdi Gholam, Christopher Clark

Dysregulations in cholesterol metabolism are associated with neurodegenerative and vascular pathologies, and dementia. Diet-derived plant sterols (phytosterols) have cholesterol-lowering, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties and may interfere with ...

Associations of genetic and infectious risk factors with coronary heart disease

Jacques Fellay, Christian Axel Wandall Thorball, Flavia Aurelia Shoko Hodel, Zhi Ming Xu, Prunelle Louise Cécile Letang-Mathieu

Coronary heart disease (CHD) is one of the most pressing health problems of our time and a major cause of preventable death. CHD results from complex interactions between genetic and environmental factors. Using multiplex serological testing for persistent ...

Identifying genetic and dietary modulators of metabolic disorders using systems genetics

Xiaoxu Li

Long-term consumption of lipid-rich foods can contribute to common metabolic diseases and systemic low-grade inflammation. However, dietary responses and the development of non-communicable diseases are shaped by genetic factors and gene-by-environment int ...

Mitochondrial respiratory chain dysfunction disrupts intracellular cholesterol homeostasis

Christopher Tadhg James Wall

Mitochondrial diseases are rare and severe conditions with debilitating symptoms. Biochemical defects in mitochondria however are common. The difference between these two frequencies is suspected to lie in the capability of the cells to adapt to the homeos ...

Dopamine Transporter, PhosphoSerine129 alpha-Synuclein and alpha-Synuclein Levels in Aged LRRK2 G2019S Knock-In and Knock-Out Mice

Salvatore Novello

The G2019S mutation in leucine rich-repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) is a major cause of familial Parkinson's disease. We previously reported that G2019S knock-in mice manifest dopamine transporter dysfunction and phosphoSerine129 alpha-synuclein (pSer129 alpha-syn ...

Follicular regulatory helper T cells control the response of regulatory B cells to a high-cholesterol diet

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos

Aims B cell functions in the process of atherogenesis have been investigated but several aspects remain to be clarified. ...

Cardiotrophin-1 Deficiency Abrogates Atherosclerosis Progression

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Rodrigo Araujo Fraga Da Silva

Cardiotrophin-1 (CT-1) is associated with cardiovascular (CV) diseases. We investigated the effect of CT-1 deficiency in the development and progression of atherosclerosis in double knockout Apoe(-/-)ct-1(-/-) mice. Apoe(-/-) C57Bl/6 or Apoe(-/-)ct-1(-/-) ...

Long noncoding RNA SNHG12 integrates a DNA-PK-mediated DNA damage response and vascular senescence

Johan Auwerx, Norman Lionel Moullan

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging regulators of biological processes in the vessel wall; however, their role in atherosclerosis remains poorly defined. We used RNA sequencing to profile lncRNAs derived specifically from the aortic intima of Ldlr(- ...

Polygenic modelling of treatment effect heterogeneity

Zhi Ming Xu

Mendelian randomization is the use of genetic variants to assess the effect of intervening on a risk factor using observational data. We consider the scenario in which there is a pharmacomimetic (i.e., treatment-mimicking) genetic variant that can be used ...

Sirt6 deletion in bone marrow-derived cells increases atherosclerosis - Central role of macrophage scavenger receptor 1

Johan Auwerx

Aims: Sirtuin 6 (Sirt6) is a NAD(+)-dependent deacetylase that plays a key role in DNA repair, inflammation and lipid regulation. Sirt6-null mice show severe metabolic defects and accelerated aging. Macrophage-foam cell formation via scavenger receptors is ...

KRAB-zinc finger protein gene expansion in response to active retrotransposons in the murine lineage

Didier Trono, Alberto De Iaco

The Krüppel-associated box zinc finger protein (KRAB-ZFP) family diversified in mammals. The majority of human KRAB-ZFPs bind transposable elements (TEs), however, since most TEs are inactive in humans it is unclear whether KRAB-ZFPs emerged to suppress TE ...

Growth differentiation factor 15 protects against the aging-mediated systemic inflammatory response in humans and mice

Johan Auwerx, Jun Yong Kim, Dongryeol Ryu, Ludger Jan Elzuë Goeminne

Mitochondrial dysfunction is associated with aging-mediated inflammatory responses, leading to metabolic deterioration, development of insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes. Growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) is an important mitokine generated in r ...

NTCP deficiency in mice protects against obesity and hepatosteatosis

Kristina Schoonjans

Bile acids play a major role in the regulation of lipid and energy metabolism. Here we propose the hepatic bile acid uptake transporter Na+ taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP) as a target to prolong postprandial bile acid elevations in plasma. R ...

High-fat diet consumption alters energy metabolism in the mouse hypothalamus

Rolf Gruetter, João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Antoine Timothée Cherix, Blanca Lizarbe Serra

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: High-fat diet consumption is known to trigger an inflammatory response in the hypothalamus, which has been characterized by an initial expression of pro-inflammatory genes followed by hypothalamic astrocytosis, microgliosis, and the ...

Frequent walkers: from healthy individual behaviours to sustainable mobility futures

Derek Pierre Christie

Walking is often taken for granted or considered as an ancillary activity. Little is known about the distribution of walking in contemporary populations, and even less about the few people who walk for an hour or more in public space on most days of the we ...

Associations between Daily Walking and Subclinical Health Markers in a Swiss City

Vincent Kaufmann, Emmanuel Pierre Jean Ravalet, Idris Guessous, Derek Pierre Christie

Every year, the Health Bus (Bus Santé) enables a representative sample of around 1000 members of the non-institutionalised adult population of Geneva, Switzerland, to undergo a health evaluation including physical measurements, blood tests and questionnair ...

Identification of the ER-resident E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF145 as a novel LXR-regulated gene

Vincenzo Sorrentino

Cellular cholesterol metabolism is subject to tight regulation to maintain adequate levels of this central lipid molecule. Herein, the sterol-responsive Liver X Receptors (LXRs) play an important role owing to their ability to reduce cellular cholesterol l ...

Treatment with the GPR55 antagonist CID16020046 increases neutrophil activation in mouse atherogenesis

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos

Endocannabinoids modulate atherogenesis by triggering different receptors. Recently, orphan G protein-coupled receptors (GPRs) were suggested to be activated by endocannabinoids, possibly regulating vasorelaxation. Here, we investigated whether GPR55 antag ...

Mild endothelial dysfunction in Sirt3 knockout mice fed a high-cholesterol diet: protective role of a novel C/EBP-β-dependent feedback regulation of SOD2

Johan Auwerx

Sirtuin 3 (Sirt3) is an NAD(+)-dependent mitochondrial deacetylase associated with superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2)-mediated protection from oxidative stress. We have reported accelerated weight gain and impaired metabolic flexibility in atherosclerotic Sirt3 ...

An Interferon Regulated MicroRNA Provides Broad Cell-Intrinsic Antiviral Immunity through Multihit Host-Directed Targeting of the Sterol Pathway

Mathieu Blanc

In invertebrates, small interfering RNAs are at the vanguard of cell-autonomous antiviral immunity. In contrast, antiviral mechanisms initiated by interferon (IFN) signaling predominate in mammals. Whilst mammalian IFN-induced miRNA are known to inhibit sp ...
