Differential regulation of hexameric and dodecameric hemocyanin from A. leptodactylus
2013
The oxygen binding properties of hemocyanins are regulated on a short time scale by effectors such as l-lactate, urate and protons, and on longer time scales by expression of the different types of subunits. For Astacus leptodactylus it was shown previously that acclimation to higher temperatures leads to increased levels of a 6-meric hemocyanin species, whereas at lower temperatures the 12-meric form prevails. Here we show that the temperature dependence of the two forms supports the idea, that the maintenance of high affinity towards oxygen is the driving force for the differential expression of these hemocyanins. Furthermore, the two different types of hemocyanin differ not only in the a…

Les inhibiteurs de l’ALS en échec face à l’ambroisie à feuilles d’armoiseEn France, la résistance aux herbicides inhibiteurs de l’acétolactate-synthase (ALS) émerge chez l’ambroisie. Très utilisés car applicables sur la majorité des grandes cultures, ces produits phytosanitaires généralistes inhibent l’ALS, une enzyme clé des végétaux dans la synthèse d’acides aminés essentiels. Ils constituent la deuxième famille de désherbants la plus employée, et en paient le tribut : la résistance à cette classe d’herbicides a été identifiée dans plus de 160 espèces d’adventices, ou « mauvaises herbes ». Récemment rajoutée à cette liste, l’ambroisie à feuilles d’armoise (Ambrosia artemisiifolia) est une…
Exercise precision medicine for type 2 diabetics : Targeted benefit or risk?
2023
Concurrent exercise and metformin administration may reduce the acute and chronic effects of exercise on glucose metabolism in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, several studies suggest that combing metformin and exercise treatment may have no additive effect and even cause adverse effects in T2D patients. This case report aimed to highlight the challenges associated with prescribing exercise to type 2 diabetes patients undergoing metformin treatment. A 67-years old woman was followed-up for 5 months, including assessment of the acute and chronic glucose and lactate metabolism induced by concomitant exercise and metformin. The findings were four-fold: 1) During a high-intensity i…
