Fetal programming of glucose–insulin metabolism [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 2009
Epidemiological studies have shown a link between poor fetal growth and increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes. These observations are highly reproducible in many populations worldwide although the mechanisms behind them remain elusive. The 'Thrifty Phenotype Hypothesis' was proposed to explain the underlying causes of these relationships. Animal

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.

Fetal Programming in Rheumatoid Arthritis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
__Abstract__ Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, systemic, inflammatory, autoimmune disease mainly affecting synovial tissues, which can lead to severe morbidity and progressive joint destruction resulting in deformations and disability.

Fetal programming and future disease [PDF]

open access: yesRevista do Hospital das Clínicas, 2004
Recent epidemiological studies have demonstrated a close relationship between low birth weight and a high predisposition to arterial hypertension, hyperlipidemia and non-insulin-dependent diabetes in adulthood. These findings may coexist as Syndrome X, more recently named as Metabolic Syndrome, and understood as precursory of coronary heart disease and

The ubiquitin ligase RNF115 is required for the clearance of damaged lysosomes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Upon lysosomal rupture, an E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF115 translocates from the cytosol to the damaged lysosomal membrane. Moreover, RNF115 depletion impairs the clearance of damaged lysosomes, identifying it as a key regulator of lysosomal quality control.

‘This growing genetic disaster’: obesogenic mothers, the obesity ‘epidemic’ and the persistence of eugenics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In this era of ever-increasing emphasis on personal responsibility the 'obesity epidemic', officialised in global health warnings, threatens to swamp the West with the consequences of overindulgence.

Fetal programming of the metabolic syndrome

open access: yesTaiwanese Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2017
Prenatal development is currently recognized as a critical period in the etiology of human diseases. This is particularly so when an unfavorable environment interacts with a genetic predisposition.

The Effect and Potential Mechanism of Maternal Micronutrient Intake on Offspring Glucose Metabolism: An Emerging Field

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition, 2021
Diabetes has become the most common metabolic disease around the world. In addition to genetic and environmental factors in adulthood, the early life environment is critical to the progression of diabetes in adults, especially the environment during the ...

Fetal Programming of Stress Responses

open access: yesStress, 2001
Epidemiological studies have shown that small size at birth is associated with an increased risk of coronary heart disease and its risk factors, including hypertension and Type 2 diabetes.It is suggested that these observations linking low birthweight with disease result from an imbalance between fetal nutrient demand and supply. This imbalance results

PARP inhibition and pharmacological ascorbate demonstrate synergy in castration‐resistant prostate cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Pharmacologic ascorbate (vitamin C) increases ROS, disrupts cellular metabolism, and induces DNA damage in CRPC cells. These effects sensitize tumors to PARP inhibition, producing synergistic growth suppression with olaparib in vitro and significantly delayed tumor progression in vivo. Pyruvate rescue confirms ROS‐dependent activity.
