Stem Cells . 2014 Dec; 33(4):1277-91. PMID: 25523907
Obesity-associated inflammation contributes to the development of metabolic diseases. Although brite adipocytes have been shown to ameliorate metabolic parameters in rodents, their origin and differentiation remain to be characterized in...

J Biol Chem . 2014 Nov; 290(6):3405-17. PMID: 25384978
The formation of new vessels in the tumor, termed angiogenesis, is essential for primary tumor growth and facilitates tumor invasion and metastasis. Hypoxia has been described as one trigger of...

PLoS One . 2014 Nov; 9(10):e110316. PMID: 25360666
Glioblastoma multiform (GBM) remains clinical indication with significant "unmet medical need". Innovative new therapy to eliminate residual tumor cells and prevent tumor recurrences is critically needed for this deadly disease....

FASEB J . 2014 Apr; 28(8):3325-38. PMID: 24744147
Dysfunctions in Wnt signaling increase β-catenin stability and are associated with cancers, including colorectal cancer. In addition, β-catenin degradation is decreased by nutrient-dependent O-GlcNAcylation. Human colon tumors and colons from...

PLoS One . 2013 Nov; 8(11):e79733. PMID: 24224000
The diagnostic of Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) remains based on clinical and neurophysiological observations. The actual delay between the onset of the symptoms and diagnosis is about 1 year, preventing...

Sci Transl Med . 2013 May; 5(185):185ra64. PMID: 23677593
Dysregulation of Toll-like receptor (TLR) responses to pathogens can lead to pathological inflammation or to immune hyporesponsiveness and susceptibility to infections, and may affect adaptive immune responses. TLRs are therefore...

Mol Cell Endocrinol . 2010 Apr; 325(1-2):18-25. PMID: 20416356
The free fatty acid (FFA) receptor GPR40, expressed by pancreatic beta-cells, may be responsible for insulin release following beta(3) adrenoceptor (Adrb3) activation. To test this hypothesis, we first studied the...
