A genomic map of climate adaptation in Mediterranean cattle breeds
2019
International audience; Domestic species such as cattle (Bos taurus taurus and B. t. indicus) represent attractive biological models to characterize the genetic basis of short term evolutionary response to climate pressure induced by their post-domestication history. Here, using newly generated dense SNP genotyping data, we assessed the structuring of genetic diversity of 21 autochtonous cattle breeds from the whole Mediterranean basin and performed genome-wide association analyses with covariables discriminating the different Mediterranean climate sub-types. This provided insights into both the demographic and adaptive histories of Mediterranean cattle. In particular, a detailed functional…
Observatoire francophone des néoplasies endocriniennes multiples de type 1. Un outil du Groupe d'étude des Tumeurs Endocrines (GTE)
2007
Wermer's syndrome or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type-1 (MEN1) is an autosomal dominant inherited disease, related to mutations in MEN1, an approximately 10-kb gene encoding menin, localized on chromosome 11q13. The Endocrine Tumor Group (GTE) has set up a MEN1 observatory of 1001 regularly followed MEN1 cases. This observatory aims at registering and evaluating MEN1 cases in a large cohort. Any new study on a particular unexplored aspect of the disease may be proposed by a physician to the GTE. This article describes the way to diagnose a new MEN1 case and to register it. Procedures for participating in a new study are presented. Some original results are quoted.
Ring opening polymerization of $\varepsilon$-caprolactone in the presence of wet $\beta$-cyclodextrin: Effect of the operative pressure and of water …
2016
International audience; The ring opening polymerization (ROP) of $\varepsilon$-caprolactone (CL) in the presence of $\beta$-cyclodextrin ($\beta$-CD) wasperformed in batch reactors both at room pressure and with the reaction system pressurized with CO$_2$, N$_2$ orAr. Significant enhancements of the polymerization rate was observed when the ROP was carried out withwet $\beta$-CD under pressure. For example, after 24 hours at 120° C with a $\beta$-CD/CL molar ratio of about1/100, the monomer conversion increased from 4 to 98–99% when the pressure was changed from 0.1to 12.5–13.0 MPa independent of the nature of the compressing gas. MALDI-TOF analyses indicated thata major fraction of polymer…
