Causal role of genetically predicted impairment of branched‐chain amino acid catabolism on insulin secretion and insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Elevated branched‐chain amino acids (BCAAs; leucine, valine, isoleucine) are linked to type 2 diabetes (T2D) risk, characterised by defective insulin secretion in pancreatic β‐cell and peripheral insulin resistance. Causative interaction between BCAA metabolism and these two diabetic pathogenesis remains unclear.

Circulating Rhythmic Metabolites and Causal Risk of Type 2 Diabetes in Adults in the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Circadian regulation of metabolism is an important factor in metabolic health, yet the role of rhythmic metabolites in Type 2 diabetes development remains poorly understood. This study investigated associations between circulating rhythmic metabolites and incident Type 2 diabetes risk and evaluated causal relationships using two‐sample ...

Comparative analysis of metabolic and functional cardiac alterations in diet‐ and genetically induced mouse models of cardiac dysfunction

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Dietary and genetic stress trigger different routes to heart failure. In mice, a carbohydrate‐free high‐fat diet caused mitochondrial dysfunction and impaired energy production with preserved pumping function, while genetic obesity led to heart enlargement, fibrosis, and reduced function.

LAT1/SLC7A5‐mediated amino acid uptake is regulated by redox signals triggered by formyl‐peptide receptor 2

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
FPR2 activation mediates NOX‐dependent LAT1 expression and, in turn, promotes mTORC1 signaling. Upon stimulation with WKYMVm, the FPR2‐NOX2‐ROS axis upregulates LAT1 via increased c‐Myc phosphorylation and decreased miR‐126. Additionally, it promotes CD98 translocation to the plasma membrane.

Enzymatic synthesis of bioactive quinolones and (thio)coumarins by fungal type III polyketide synthases

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Quinolones are valuable scaffolds for drug discovery but are rare in nature. Here, we show that two fungal enzymes, AthePKS and FerePKS, can generate 2‐quinolones and two additional heteroaromatic scaffolds. Using AthePKS, we designed an artificial enzymatic cascade towards an antimicrobial quinolone from a simple precursor and implemented it in E ...
