چکیده
How adipocytes contribute to the physiological control of stem cells is a critical question towards understanding the link between obesity and multiple diseases, including cancers. Previous studies have revealed that adult stem cells are influenced by whole-body physiology through multiple diet-dependent factors. For example, nutrient-dependent pathways acting within the Drosophila ovary control the number and proliferation of germline stem cells (GSCs). The potential role of nutrient sensing by adipocytes in modulating stem cells in other organs, however, remains largely unexplored. Here, we report that amino acid sensing by adult adipocytes specifically modulates the maintenance of GSCs through a Target of Rapamycin-independent mechanism. Instead, reduced amino acid levels and the consequent increase in uncoupled tRNAs trigger activation of the GCN2-dependent amino acid response pathway within adipocytes, causing increased rates of GSC loss. These studies reveal a new step in adipocyte-stem cell crosstalk.

High-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) is novel type of artificial lung ventilation characterized by low tidal volume and high ventilatory frequency compared with conventional mechanical ventilation. Obstruction diseases like asthma or chronic obstruction pulmonary disease are supposed to be contraindications for HFOV. Mechanical properties of the patient circuit and its parts are studie...
متن کاملDizygotic Twin Pregnancy With a Complete Hydatidiform Mole and a Coexisting Viable Fetus
Coexistence of a viable fetus with a hydatidiform mole is a rare condition and the diagnosis is very important because of the risk of developing severe complications in pregnancy. The management of these pregnancies is optional, although accurate and great care is required to find early signs of maternal or fetal complications.Hereby we report a case of dizygotic twin pregnancy with a complete ...
متن کاملGeneric Quantum Markov Semigroups: the Fock Case
Abstract. We introduce the class of generic quantum Markov semigroups. Within this class we study the class corresponding to the Fock case which is further split into four sub-classes each of which contains both bounded and unbounded generators, depending on some global characteristics of the intensities of jumps. For the first two of these classes we find an explicit solution which reduces the...
