White adipose tissue distribution and amount are associated with increased white matter connectivity

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Gabriel Girard, Elda Fischi Gomez, Philipp Johannes Koch

Obesity represents a significant public health concern and is linked to various comorbidities and cognitive impairments. Previous research indicates that elevated body mass index (BMI) is associated with structural changes in white matter (WM). However, a ...

The interplay between white adipose tissue, adipokines, and structural gray matter changes

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Gabriel Girard, Elda Fischi Gomez

The growing global obesity issue emphasizes the importance of understanding its health implications. Previous research has identified consistent alterations in gray matter (GM) volume in connection with obesity. Given the various implications of distinct f ...

Dietary L-Glu sensing by enteroendocrine cells adjusts food intake via modulating gut PYY/NPF secretion

Bruno Lemaitre, Zongzhao Zhai

Amino acid availability is monitored by animals to adapt to their nutritional environment. Beyond gustatory receptors and systemic amino acid sensors, enteroendocrine cells (EECs) are believed to directly percept dietary amino acids and secrete regulatory ...

Lipid biosynthesis enzyme Agpat5 in AgRP-neurons is required for insulin-induced hypoglycemia sensing and glucagon secretion

Maxime Jan

The counterregulatory response to hypoglycemia that restores normal blood glucose levels is an essential physiological function. It is initiated, in large part, by incompletely characterized brain hypoglycemia sensing neurons that trigger the secretion of ...

New Insights Into the Pivotal Role of CREB-Regulated Transcription Coactivator 1 in Depression and Comorbid Obesity

Antoine Timothée Cherix

Depression and obesity are major public health concerns, and there is mounting evidence that they share etiopathophysiological mechanisms. The neurobiological pathways involved in both mood and energy balance regulation are complex, multifactorial and stil ...

Mechanism and effects of pulsatile GABA secretion from cytosolic pools in the human beta cell

Chiara Cianciaruso, Steinunn Baekkeskov Hanahan, Petra Catalina Schwalie, Edward Allen Phelps

Pancreatic beta cells synthesize and secrete the neurotransmitter GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) as a paracrine and autocrine signal to help regulate hormone secretion and islet homeostasis. Islet GABA release has classically been described as a secretory- ...

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 ...

Adamts18 Function in Mammary Gland Development

Dalya Ataca

Ovarian hormones control mammary gland development and impinge on breast carcinogenesis acting via their cognate receptors in the luminal epithelium. The extracellular matrix has a key role in physiology and disease but how the two are linked is poorly und ...

Growth differentiation factor 15 is a myomitokine governing systemic energy homeostasis

Johan Auwerx, Dongryeol Ryu

Reduced mitochondria! electron transport chain activity promotes longevity and improves energy homeostasis via cell-autonomous and non-autonomous factors in multiple model systems. This mitohormetic effect is thought to involve the mitochondrial unfolded p ...

Nutritional Omega-3 Deficiency Alters Glucocorticoid Receptor-Signaling Pathway and Neuronal Morphology in Regionally Distinct Brain Structures Associated with Emotional Deficits

Thomas Didier Larrieu

Extensive evidence suggests that long term dietary n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) deficiency results in altered emotional behaviour. We have recently demonstrated that n-3 PUFAs deficiency induces emotional alterations through abnormal corticoster ...

Anti-Obesity and Anti-Hyperglycemic Effects of Cinnamaldehyde via altered Ghrelin Secretion and Functional impact on Food Intake and Gastric Emptying

Henry Markram, Julie Meystre, Maurizio Ferdinando Pezzoli, Johannes Le Coutre

Cinnamon extract is associated to different health benefits but the active ingredients or pathways are unknown. Cinnamaldehyde (CIN) imparts the characteristic flavor to cinnamon and is known to be the main agonist of transient receptor potential-ankyrin r ...

Hypothalamic S1P/S1PR1 axis controls energy homeostasis

Dongryeol Ryu

Sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 1 (S1PR1) is a G-protein-coupled receptor for sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) that has a role in many physiological and pathophysiological processes. Here we show that the S1P/S1PR1 signalling pathway in hypothalamic neurons ...

The role of leptin, melanocortin, and neurotrophin system genes on body weight in anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa

Pierre Magistretti

Objective: Although low weight is a key factor contributing to the high mortality in anorexia nervosa (AN), it is unclear how AN patients sustain low weight compared with bulimia nervosa (BN) patients with similar psychopathology. Studies of genes involved ...

Towards high resolution optical imaging of beta cells in vivo

Theo Lasser, Anne Grapin-Botton, Martin Villiger, Joan Goulley, Erica Martin-Williams

Endocrine beta cells produce and release insulin in order to tightly regulate glucose homeostasis and prevent metabolic pathologies such as Diabetes Mellitus. Optical imaging has contributed greatly to our current understanding of beta cell structure and f ...

Glut2-dependent glucose-sensing controls thermoregulation by enhancing the leptin sensitivity of NPY and POMC neurons

David Genoux

The physiological contribution of glucose in thermoregulation is not completely established nor whether this control may involve a regulation of the melanocortin pathway. Here, we assessed thermoregulation and leptin sensitivity of hypothalamic arcuate neu ...

The rate-limiting step for glucose transport into the hypothalamus is across the blood–hypothalamus interface

Rolf Gruetter, Hongxia Lei, Carole Poitry-Yamate

Specialized glucosensing neurons are present in the hypothalamus, some of which neighbor the median eminence, where the blood–brain barrier has been reported leaky. A leaky blood–brain barrier implies high tissue glucose levels and obviates a role for endo ...
