Use of VacA as a Vaccine Antigen

Mati André Marie Moyat, Dominique Velin

One of the major toxins secreted by H. pylori is the Vacuolating cytotoxin A (VacA) named after its ability to induce the formation of "vacuole"-like membrane vesicles in the cytoplasm of gastric cells. VacA has been associated with the disruption of mitoc ...

Redefining the metabolic landscape through TGF-beta/Activin signaling in Drosophila melanogaster

Wen Bin Chng

Multicellular organisms assess their nutritional state and adapt their metabolic landscape to match their energy demands. In this thesis, we address a longstanding conundrum of how an organism coordinates digestive enzyme expression in response to its nutr ...

Worldwide Population Structure, Long-Term Demography, and Local Adaptation of Helicobacter pylori

Jeffrey David Jensen, Matthieu Foll

Helicobacter pylori is an important human pathogen associated with serious gastric diseases. Owing to its medical importance and close relationship with its human host, understanding genomic patterns of global and local adaptation in H. pylori may be of pa ...

Transforming Growth Factor beta/Activin Signaling Functions as a Sugar-Sensing Feedback Loop to Regulate Digestive Enzyme Expression

Bruno Lemaitre, Maroun Bou Sleiman, Wen Bin Chng

Organisms need to assess their nutritional state and adapt their digestive capacity to the demands for various nutrients. Modulation of digestive enzyme production represents a rational step to regulate nutriment uptake. However, the role of digestion in n ...

In Vitro Pancreas Organogenesis from Dispersed Mouse Embryonic Progenitors

Anne Grapin-Botton, Chiara Greggio, Filippo De Franceschi

The pancreas is an essential organ that regulates glucose homeostasis and secretes digestive enzymes. Research on pancreas embryogenesis has led to the development of protocols to produce pancreatic cells from stem cells. The whole embryonic organ can be c ...

The Digestive Tract of Drosophila melanogaster

Bruno Lemaitre

The digestive tract plays a central role in the digestion and absorption of nutrients. Far from being a passive tube, it provides the first line of defense against pathogens and maintains energy homeostasis by exchanging neuronal and endocrine signals with ...

Double-balloon jejunal perfusion to compare absorption of vitamin E and vitamin E acetate in healthy volunteers under maldigestion conditions

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: The vitamin E derivative, alpha-tocopheryl acetate, is often included in formulations used in enteral nutrition. In this respect, we compared alpha-tocopherol and alpha-tocopheryl acetate absorption under 'maldigestion' conditions, s ...

The Receptor TGR5 Mediates the Prokinetic Actions of Intestinal Bile Acids and Is Required for Normal Defecation in Mice

Kristina Schoonjans

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Abnormal delivery of bile acids (BAs) to the colon as a result of disease or therapy causes constipation or diarrhea by unknown mechanisms. The G protein-coupled BA receptor TGR5 (or GPBAR1) is expressed by enteric neurons and endocrine ...

Analysis of acidity production during enhanced reductive dechlorination using a simplified reactive transport model

David Andrew Barry, Alessandro Brovelli, Clare Robinson

Build-up of fermentation products and hydrochloric acid at a contaminated site undergoing enhanced reductive dechlorination can result in groundwater acidification. Sub-optimal pH conditions can inhibit microbial activity and lead to reduced dechlorination ...

Acid-Induced Degradation of Phosphorescent Dopants for OLEDs and Its Application to the Synthesis of Tris-heteroleptic Iridium(III) Bis-cyclometalated Complexes

Michael Graetzel, Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Rosario Scopelliti, Ursula Röthlisberger, Ivano Tavernelli, Basile Curchod, Julien Edouard Frey

Investigations of blue phosphorescent organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) based on [Ir(2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)pyridine)(2)(picolinate)] (FIrPic) have pointed to the cleavage of the picolinate as a possible reason for device instability. We reproduced the ...
