Transcriptomic and proteomic responses of Microbacterium sp. C448 exposed to sulfamethazine antibiotic

International audience; The Microbacterium sp. C448 was isolated from a soil regularly exposed to sulfamethazine(SMZ), for its ability to partly mineralise this antibiotic and other related sulfonamides.The aim of our study was to explore its metabolic adaptation towards exposure to SMZenvironmental (10 mg/L) and medicinal (250 mg/L) concentrations. Its transcriptomic andproteomic responses were analysed by focusing on the degradation regulon (sad genes) andresistance genes (folP and sul1).The transcriptomic and proteomic results were essentially congruent whatever theconcentrations tested. In culture conditions, exposure to the highest concentration of SMZ led tothe highest sad expression …

Gender as a Modifying Factor Influencing Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1 Phenotype Severity and Mortality: A Nationwide Multiple Databases Cross-Sectional Observational Study

International audience; BACKGROUND: Myotonic Dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is one of the most heterogeneous hereditary disease in terms of age of onset, clinical manifestations, and severity, challenging both medical management and clinical trials. The CTG expansion size is the main factor determining the age of onset although no factor can finely predict phenotype and prognosis. Differences between males and females have not been specifically reported. Our aim is to study gender impact on DM1 phenotype and severity.METHODS: We first performed cross-sectional analysis of main multiorgan clinical parameters in 1409 adult DM1 patients (\textgreater18y) from the DM-Scope nationwide registry and obser…
