Journal ArticleDOI
Competition between glucose and lactate as oxidative energy substrates in both neurons and astrocytes: a comparative NMR study.
Anne-Karine Bouzier-Sore,Pierre Voisin,Véronique Bouchaud,Eric Bezancon,Jean-Michel Franconi,Luc Pellerin +5 more
TL;DR: The idea that lactate, predominantly produced by astrocytes, is used as a supplementary fuel by neurons in vivo already under resting physiological conditions support the idea that glucose is a better substrate to support oxidative metabolism in these cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fine Tuning of the Relaxometry of γ-Fe2O3@SiO2 Nanoparticles by Tweaking the Silica Coating Thickness
Sonia L. C. Pinho,Sonia L. C. Pinho,Giovannia A. L. Pereira,Giovannia A. L. Pereira,Pierre Voisin,Jinane Kassem,Véronique Bouchaud,Laetitia Etienne,Joop A. Peters,Luís D. Carlos,Stéphane Mornet,Carlos F. G. C. Geraldes,João Rocha,Marie-Hélène Delville +13 more
TL;DR: It is shown, that the viability and the mitochondrial dehydrogenase expression of the microglial cells do not appear to be sensitive to the vesicular load with these core-shell nanoparticles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arylamine N-acetyltransferase and arylalkylamine N-acetyltransferase in the mammalian pineal gland.
TL;DR: The results clearly establish that the pineal gland contains an arylamine N-acetyltransferase and a second, independently regulated arylalkylamine EMT, which appears to be primarily responsible for the physiological conversion of serotonin to melatonin via the intermediate N- acetylserotonin.
Journal ArticleDOI
ATP generation in the Trypanosoma brucei procyclic form: cytosolic substrate level is essential, but not oxidative phosphorylation.
Virginie Coustou,Sébastien Besteiro,Marc Biran,Philippe Diolez,Véronique Bouchaud,Pierre Voisin,Paul A.M. Michels,Paul Canioni,Théo Baltz,Frédéric Bringaud +9 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that PYK is essential because of its ATP production, which implies that the cytosolic substrate level phosphorylation is essential for the growth of procyclic trypanosomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pineal transducers in the course of evolution: molecular organization, rhythmic metabolic activity and role.
Jean-Pierre Collin,Pierre Voisin,Jacky Falcón,Jean-Pierre Faure,P. Brisson,Jean-René Defaye +5 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that pineal chief cells share a common feature: they somehow transform the information derived from the light/dark cycle into daily rhythms of neural and hormonal output and appear invariably involved in the temporal organization of physiological and behavioral processes.
