The study of calcium signaling in lipid gustatory cells in mice
2012
The lipid-binding glycoprotein CD36, expressed by circumvallate papillae (CVP) of the mouse tongue, has been shown to be implicated in oro-gustatory perception of dietary lipids. We demonstrate that linoleic acid (LA) by activating sPLA2, cPLA2 and iPLA2 via CD36, produced arachidonic acid (AA) and lyso-phosphatidylcholine (Lyso-PC) which triggered Ca2+ influx in CD36-positive taste bud cells (TBC), purified from mouse CVP. LA induced the production of Ca2+ influx factor (CIF). CIF, AA and Lyso-PC exerted different actions on the opening of store-operated Ca2+ (SOC) channels, constituted of Orai proteins and regulated by STIM1, a sensor of Ca2+ depletion in the endoplasmic reticulum. We use…
Etude des mécanismes physiologiques et moléculaires permettant la prise en charge des substrats hydrophobes par la levure Yarrowia lipolytica au nive…
2012
Yarrowia lipolytica can grow on many hydrophobic substrates and metabolize them via the β-oxidation pathway or store them into lipid bodies. The first contact between the cell and the hydrophobic substrates is by the cell wall. In this step, cell-wall proteins (CWP), β-glucane and chitin of the cell wall could play an important role for the adhesion and uptake of hydrophobic substrates. The aim of this work was to study the effect of a hydrophobic carbon source (compared with glucose) and the culture medium composition on the cell wall composition and the melanin production by Y. lipolytica. The results of our biochemical and molecular analysis showed that the presence of methyl oleate and …
Impact du système endocannabinoïdien sur la physiologie de l'obésité : effets de l'antagonisme des récepteurs CB1 sur le métabolisme glucido-lipidiqu…
2010
The endocannabinoïd system (ECS) is involved in many biological functions such as regulation of energy metabolism. Recently, several studies have shown an association between obesity and ECS overactivity. In addition, specific CB1R antagonists such as Rimonabant (SR141716) improved metabolic parameters in obese patients essentially through inactivation of central CB1R. However, peripheral CB1R inactivation could also contribute to the improvement of these parameters and it is this notion that we have studied. To this purpose, we tested the effects of SR141716 on obese mice in order to establish relationships between the ECS activity and lipid metabolism by looking more specifically to its r…
Is Aquaponics Beneficial in Terms of Fish and Plant Growth and Water Quality in Comparison to Separate Recirculating Aquaculture and Hydroponic Syste…
2022
Aquaponics is a technique where a recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) and hydroponics are integrated to grow plants and fish in a closed system. We investigated if the growth of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and baby spinach (Spinacia oleracea) would be affected in a coupled aquaponic system compared to the growth of the fish in RAS or plants in a hydroponic system, all systems as three replicates. We also investigated the possible effects of plants on the onset of nitrification in biofilters and on the concentration of off-flavor-causing agents geosmin (GSM) and 2-methylisoborneol (MIB) in rainbow trout flesh and spinach. For the fish grown in aquaponics, the weight gain and speci…
The effect of high-intensity interval exercise program on blood lipids and hormones in recreationally active adults
2015
Johdanto. Tyypin 2 diabetes sekä verenkieroelimistön sairaudet ovat yleistyneet ja niiden tehokkaimpana ehkäisynä pidetään liikuntaa. Suomessa ihmiset eivät noudata liikuntasuosi-tuksia ja syyksi inaktiivisuuteen sanotaankin olevan ajan ja motivaation puute. Korkeate-hoinen intervalliharjoittelu on ollut suosittua siksi, että se säästää aikaa ja sen vaikutuksien terveyteen ja kuntoon ajatellaan olevan vähintäänkin samanlaiset kun aerobisen harjoittelun. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli tutkia onko kahden erityyppisen intervalliharjoittelun (juoksu ja kuntopiiri) välillä eroja veren lipideissä ja hormoneissa, kun työmäärä ja intensiteetti pysyvät samana. Tällä hetkellä tutkimuksia tästä a…
Peroxydation in vivo et in vitro des acides gras polyinsaturés
2007
It is well admitted that polyunsaturated fatty acids are the most sensitive fatty acids to oxidative damage because of their high number of double bonds. This concept could not be confirmed by in vitro, animal, or human studies since unexpected or even contradictory results were obtained. The explanation of that is probably related to the methods evaluating lipid peroxidation whose relevance is not always established, but especially to movements of polyunsaturated fatty acids within lipoproteins that results in their protection. This short review aims to discuss the main results related to this topic.
Determination of fatty acids and lipid classes in salmon oil by near infrared spectroscopy
2017
International audience; Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy was evaluated as a rapid method for the determination of oleic, palmitic, linoleic and linolenic acids as well as omega-3, omega-6, and to predict polyunsaturated, monounsaturated and saturated fatty acids, together with triacylglycerides, diglycerides, free fatty acids and ergosterol in salmon oil. To do it, Partial Least Squares (PLS) regression models were applied to correlate NIR spectra with aforementioned fatty acids and lipid classes. Results obtained were validated in front of reference procedures based on high performance thin layer and gas chromatography. PLS-NIR has a good predictive capability with relative root mean squar…
Deformabilità eritrocitaria, metaboliti dell'ossido nitrico e stress ossidativo in un gruppo di soggetti con sindrome delle apnee ostruttive nel sonno
2015
La sindrome delle apnee ostruttive nel sonno ((OSAS) si associa a disfunzione endoteliale ed aterosclerosi ed è gravata da un'elevata morbilità e mortalità cardiovascolare.
Gut Microbiota and Serum Metabolome in Elite Cross-Country Skiers : A Controlled Study
2022
Exercise has been shown to affect gut the microbiome and metabolic health, with athletes typically displaying a higher microbial diversity. However, research on the gut microbiota and systemic metabolism in elite athletes remains scarce. In this study, we compared the gut microbiota profiles and serum metabolome of national team cross-country skiers at the end of an exhausting training and competitive season to those of normally physically-active controls. The gut microbiota were analyzed using 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing. Serum metabolites were analyzed using nuclear magnetic resonance. Phylogenetic diversity and the abundance of several mucin-degrading gut microbial taxa, including Akker…
