Contribution to the Discovery of a Novel Medicine for a Neuromuscular Disease and of other Promising Molecules for the Treatment of Neurodevelopmental and Neurodegenerative Diseases

open access: yesCHIMIA, 2021
Nervous system disorders affect millions of people around the world, through a very broad range of diseases. Here we describe our contribution to find a treatment for patients suffering from three of those diseases.

Agonist and antagonist TRUPATH assays for G protein-coupled receptors

open access: yesSTAR Protocols, 2022
Summary: TRUPATH is a bioluminescence resonance energy transfer-based platform for quantifying G protein-coupled receptor activity via dissociation of heterotrimeric G protein biosensors.

Ligands can differentially and temporally modulate GPCR interaction with 14-3-3 isoforms

open access: yesCurrent Research in Pharmacology and Drug Discovery, 2022
GPCR signaling and function depend on their associated proteins and subcellular locations. Besides G-proteins and β-arrestins, 14-3-3 proteins participate in GPCR trafficking and signaling, and they connect a large number of diverse proteins to form ...

Odorant receptors can mediate axonal identity and gene choice via cAMP-independent mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2016
Odorant receptors (ORs) control several aspects of cell fate in olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs), including singular gene choice and axonal identity.

Burixafor, a CXCR4 inhibitor with a differentiated kinetics profile: results of a phase 2 study for rapid cell mobilization in multiple myeloma and lymphoma patients undergoing transplant

open access: yesAnnals of Hematology
Inhibitors of C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4) are standard of care for mobilization of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HPC) in transplant eligible patients with hematological malignancies or undergoing HPC-based gene therapies. Burixafor

Genetically encoded fluorescent biosensors for GPCR research

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) regulate a wide range of physiological and pathophysiological cellular processes, thus it is important to understand how GPCRs are activated and function in various cellular contexts.

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.

An epithelial GPR35 isoform supports tumor‐associated transcriptional and metabolic phenotypes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
GPR35 generates two functionally distinct isoforms with previously unresolved roles. GPR35‐short mediates immune‐cell chemotaxis, while GPR35‐long is enriched in colorectal cancer epithelium, where it supports increased metabolism, proliferation, and tumor‐associated transcriptional programs.
