Semaglutide normalizes increased cardiomyocyte calcium transients in a rat model of high fat diet‐induced obesity

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1386-1397, April 2025.
Sequeira et al. reveal how the glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist (GLP‐1‐RA) semaglutide restores cardiomyocyte function in rats subjected to a high‐fat/high‐fructose diet (HFD). Employing fluorescence‐ and patch‐clamp technology in isolated cardiac myocytes, they demonstrate that semaglutide reverses HFD‐induced activation of L‐type calcium ...

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Despite the reported high prevalence of catamenial epilepsy (CE), the condition remains poorly defined, with lack of consensus on what entails a menstrual‐related seizure exacerbation. Emerging evidence of multiday cycles of seizure activity, including about‐monthly cycles, present in both men and women, further confound the ...

Metabolic signaling functions of ER–mitochondria contact sites : Role in metabolic diseases

open access: yes, 2017
Beyond the maintenance of cellular homeostasis and the determination of cell fate, ER– mitochondria contact sites, defined as mitochondria-associated membranes (MAM), start to emerge as an important signaling hub that integrates nutrient and hormonal ...

Phenotypic and transcriptomic characterization of biallelic RNU2‐2 developmental and epileptic encephalopathy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective A significant proportion of individuals with suspected genetic developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) remain unsolved following whole genome sequencing (WGS). Here we describe biallelic RNU2‐2 variants causing a recently reported, severe, recessive DEE.

Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Approximately half of all cases of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) do not respond to vigabatrin and hormonal therapies. There is no clear consensus as to the second‐line therapy for IESS. Ketogenic diet (KD) has emerged as an effective treatment for certain drug‐resistant epilepsies and in many cases of IESS.

Bioimpedance Body Composition Analysis in Estimating Insulin Resistance in Women with Overweight and Obesity (LUCAS 1.1): A Retrospective Analysis

open access: yesClinical Diabetology
OBJECTIVE: Insulin resistance (IR) is a disruption in glucose homeostasis characterized by decreased tissue sensitivity to insulin. One of the main causes of IR is considered to be obesity, a significant problem in contemporary medicine.

Longitudinal Development of Portion Size Estimation in Patients With Anorexia Nervosa Receiving Inpatient Treatment—Evidence From Laboratory and Real‐Life Data

open access: yesEuropean Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Food intake is highly aversive for patients with anorexia nervosa (AN), and fear of weight gain is closely linked to altered eating behaviours, including reduced portion sizes. This study investigated how portion size estimation develops longitudinally in patients with AN during inpatient treatment.
