3D-QSAR study of ligands for two human olfactory receptors
2008
International audience; All living organisms, including human beings, are able to detect and discriminate myriads of structurally diverse odorants through their interaction with olfactory receptors (ORs) (1). It is well accepted that the perception of thousands of odors by about 380 ORs results from a combinatorial coding, in which one OR recognizes multiple odorants and different odorants are recognized by different combinations of ORs (2). In a previous study (3), the functional characterization on two human ORs, called OR1G1 (class II) and OR52D1 (class I) have been performed using 95 odorant molecules. We used these previously obtained functional data (3) to perform a molecular modellin…
New molecular aspects of regulation of mitochondrial activity by fenofibrate and fasting
2000
Abstract Fenofibrate and fasting are known to regulate several genes involved in lipid metabolism in a similar way. In this study measuring several mitochondrial enzyme activities, we demonstrate that, in contrast to citrate synthase and complex II, cytochrome c oxidase (COX) is a specific target of these two treatments. In mouse liver organelles, Western blot experiments indicated that mitochondrial levels of p43, a mitochondrial T3 receptor, and mitochondrial peroxisome proliferator activated receptor (mt-PPAR), previously described as a dimeric partner of p43 in the organelle, are increased by both fenofibrate and fasting. In addition, in PPARα-deficient mice, this influence was abolishe…
Digital and handcrafting processes applied to sound-studies of archaeological bone flutes
2016
International audience; Bone flutes make use of a naturally hollow raw-material. As nature does not produce duplicates, each bone has its own inner cavity, and thus its own sound-potential. This morphological variation implies acoustical specificities, thus making it impossible to handcraft a true and exact sound-replica in another bone. This phenomenon has been observed in a handcrafting context and has led us to conduct two series of experiments (the first-one using handcrafting process, the second-one using 3D process) in order to investigate its exact influence on acoustics as well as on sound-interpretation based on replicas. The comparison of the results has shed light upon epistemolo…
