Longitudinal analysis of ANA in the Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics (SLICC) Inception Cohort
Objectives A perception derived from cross-sectional studies of small systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) cohorts is that there is a marked discrepancy between antinuclear antibody (ANA) assays, which impacts on clinicians' approach to diagnosis and follow-up. We compared three ANA assays in a longitudinal analysis of a large international incident SLE cohort retested regularly and followed for 5 y

Defective Lysosomal Lipolysis Causes Prenatal Lipid Accumulation and Exacerbates Immediately after Birth
Cholesterol and fatty acids are essential lipids that are critical for membrane biosynthesis and fetal organ development. Cholesteryl esters (CE) are degraded by hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) in the cytosol and by lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) in the lysosome. Impaired LAL or HSL activity causes rare pathologies in humans, with HSL deficiency presenting less severe clinical manifestations. The infa
ATG7 is dispensable for LC3-PE conjugation in thioglycolate-elicited mouse peritoneal macrophages
Thioglycolate-elicited macrophages exhibit abundant conjugation of LC3 with PE (LC3-II). Among other autophagy-related (ATG) proteins, it is proposed that, like in yeast, both ATG5 and ATG7 are essential for LC3 conjugation. Using atg5-deficient (-/-) and atg7-/-macrophages, we provide evidence that loss of ATG5 but not of ATG7 resulted in LC3-II depletion. Accumulation of LC3-II in elicited atg7-
Effect Modification between Genes and Environment and Parkinson's Disease Risk
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a complex neurodegenerative condition in which genetic and environmental factors interact to contribute to its etiology. Remarkable progress has been made in deciphering disease etiology through genetic approaches, but there is limited data about how environmental and genetic factors interact to modify penetrance, risk, and disease severity. Here, we provide insights in
Tissue-Specific Landscape of Metabolic Dysregulation during Ageing
The dysregulation of cellular metabolism is a hallmark of ageing. To understand the metabolic changes that occur as a consequence of the ageing process and to find biomarkers for age-related diseases, we conducted metabolomic analyses of the brain, heart, kidney, liver, lung and spleen in young (9-10 weeks) and old (96-104 weeks) wild-type mice [mixed genetic background of 129/J and C57BL/6] using
Metabolomic Profiles of Mouse Tissues Reveal an Interplay between Aging and Energy Metabolism
Energy metabolism, including alterations in energy intake and expenditure, is closely related to aging and longevity. Metabolomics studies have recently unraveled changes in metabolite composition in plasma and tissues during aging and have provided critical information to elucidate the molecular basis of the aging process. However, the metabolic changes in tissues responsible for food intake and
Enterocyte-specific ATGL overexpression affects intestinal and systemic cholesterol homeostasis
Enterocytes of the small intestine (SI) play an important role in maintaining systemic lipid levels by regulating dietary lipid absorption and postprandial lipoprotein secretion. An excessive amount of dietary-derived triglycerides (TGs) taken up by the apical side of enterocytes or basolaterally internalized lipoprotein remnants can be transiently stored in cytosolic lipid droplets (cLDs). As mic
Adipose Triglyceride Lipase Deficiency Attenuates In Vitro Thrombus Formation without Affecting Platelet Activation and Bleeding In Vivo
According to genome-wide RNA sequencing data from human and mouse platelets, adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL), the main lipase catalyzing triglyceride (TG) hydrolysis in cytosolic lipid droplets (LD) at neutral pH, is expressed in platelets. Currently, it is elusive to whether common lipolytic enzymes are involved in the degradation of TG in platelets. Since the consequences of ATGL deficiency i
Global analysis of protein arginine methylation
Quantitative information about the levels and dynamics of post-translational modifications (PTMs) is critical for an understanding of cellular functions. Protein arginine methylation (ArgMet) is an important subclass of PTMs and is involved in a plethora of (patho)physiological processes. However, because of the lack of methods for global analysis of ArgMet, the link between ArgMet levels, dynamic
Off-target effects of the lysosomal acid lipase inhibitors Lalistat-1 and Lalistat-2 on neutral lipid hydrolases
OBJECTIVES: Lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) is the key enzyme, which degrades neutral lipids at an acidic pH in lysosomes. The role of LAL in various cellular processes has mostly been studied in LAL-knockout mice, which share phenotypical characteristics with humans suffering from LAL deficiency. In vitro, the cell-specific functions of LAL have been commonly investigated by using the LAL inhibitors
Phosphatidylethanolamine N-Methyltransferase Knockout Modulates Metabolic Changes in Aging Mice
Phospholipid metabolism, including phosphatidylcholine (PC) biosynthesis, is crucial for various biological functions and is associated with longevity. Phosphatidylethanolamine N-methyltransferase (PEMT) is a protein that catalyzes the biosynthesis of PC, the levels of which change in various organs such as the brain and kidneys during aging. However, the role of PEMT for systemic PC supply is not

The effect of metastasis location on outcome after cytoreductive surgery and heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy
Objectives: This study aims to evaluate how metastases in the seven topographical regions of the simplified peritoneal cancer index (sPCI) affect the survival of patients treated with cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) from colorectal (CRC) or appendiceal cancers.Methods: Data was collected retrospectively from patient rec
The measured distance between tumor cells and the peritoneal surface predicts the risk of peritoneal metastases and offers an objective means to differentiate between pT3 and pT4a colon cancer
Substantial variability exists in what pathologists consider as pT4a in colorectal cancer when tumor cells are within 1 mm of the free peritoneal surface. This study aimed to determine if the measured sub-millimeter distance between tumor cells and the free peritoneal surface would offer an objective means of stratifying patients according to the risk of developing peritoneal metastases.
