Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Extreme-ultraviolet to x-ray free-electron lasers (FELs) in operation for scientific applications are up to now single-user facilities. While most FELs generate around 100 photon pulses per second, FLASH at DESY can deliver almost two orders of magnitude more pulses in this time span due to its superconducting accelerator technology. This makes the facility a prime candidate to realize the next step in FELs-dividing the electron pulse trains into several FEL lines and delivering photon pulses to several users at the same time. Hence, FLASH has been extended with a second undulator line and self-amplified spontaneous emission (SASE) is demonstrated in both FELs simultaneously. FLASH can now deliver MHz pulse trains to two user experiments in parallel with individually selected photon beam characteristics. First results of the capabilities of this extension are shown with emphasis on independent variation of wavelength, repetition rate, and photon pulse length.

Lysosomal lipoprotein processing in endothelial cells stimulates adipose tissue thermogenic adaptation
- 2021

Ingår i: Cell Metabolism. - : Elsevier. - 1550-4131 .- 1932-7420. ; 33:3, s. 547-564.e7

- In response to cold exposure, thermogenic adipocytes internalize large amounts of fatty acids after lipoprotein lipase-mediated hydrolysis of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRL) in the capillary lumen of brown adipose tissue (BAT) and white adipose tissue (WAT). Here, we show that in cold-exposed mice, vascular endothelial cells in adipose tissues endocytose substantial amounts of entire TRL particles. These lipoproteins subsequently follow the endosomal-lysosomal pathway, where they undergo lysosomal acid lipase (LAL)-mediated processing. Endothelial cell-specific LAL deficiency results in impaired thermogenic capacity as a consequence of reduced recruitment of brown and brite/beige adipocytes. Mechanistically, TRL processing by LAL induces proliferation of endothelial cells and adipocyte precursors via beta-oxidation-dependent production of reactive oxygen species, which in turn stimulates hypoxia-inducible factor-1α-dependent proliferative responses. In conclusion, this study demonstrates a physiological role for TRL particle uptake into BAT and WAT and establishes endothelial lipoprotein processing as an important determinant of adipose tissue remodeling during thermogenic adaptation.

Towards a unified paradigm for sequence-based identification of fungi.

- The nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region is the formal fungal barcode and in most cases the marker of choice for the exploration of fungal diversity in environmental samples. Two problems are particularly acute in the pursuit of satisfactory taxonomic assignment of newly generated ITS sequences: (i) the lack of an inclusive, reliable public reference data set and (ii) the lack of means to refer to fungal species, for which no Latin name is available in a standardized stable way. Here, we report on progress in these regards through further development of the UNITE database (http://unite.ut.ee) for molecular identification of fungi. All fungal species represented by at least two ITS sequences in the international nucleotide sequence databases are now given a unique, stable name of the accession number type (e.g. Hymenoscyphus pseudoalbidus|GU586904|SH133781.05FU), and their taxonomic and ecological annotations were corrected as far as possible through a distributed, third-party annotation effort. We introduce the term 'species hypothesis' (SH) for the taxa discovered in clustering on different similarity thresholds (97-99%). An automatically or manually designated sequence is chosen to represent each such SH. These reference sequences are released (http://unite.ut.ee/repository.php) for use by the scientific community in, for example, local sequence similarity searches and in the QIIME pipeline. The system and the data will be updated automatically as the number of public fungal ITS sequences grows. We invite everybody in the position to improve the annotation or metadata associated with their particular fungal lineages of expertise to do so through the new Web-based sequence management system in UNITE.

IL-17B/RB Activation in Pancreatic Stellate Cells Promotes Pancreatic Cancer Metabolism and Growth
- 2021

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), the tumor stroma constitutes most of the cell mass and contributes to therapy resistance and progression. Here we show a hitherto unknown metabolic cooperation between pancreatic stellate cells (PSCs) and tumor cells through Interleukin 17B/Interleukin 17B receptor (IL-17B/IL-17RB) signaling. Tumor-derived IL-17B carrying extracellular vesicles (EVs) activated stromal PSCs and induced the expression of IL-17RB. PSCs increased oxidative phosphorylation while reducing mitochondrial turnover. PSCs activated tumor cells in a feedback loop. Tumor cells subsequently increased oxidative phosphorylation and decreased glycolysis partially via IL-6. In vivo, IL-17RB overexpression in PSCs accelerated tumor growth in a co-injection xenograft mouse model. Our results demonstrate a tumor-to-stroma feedback loop increasing tumor metabolism to accelerate tumor growth under optimal nutritional conditions.

Influence of Different Sensor Configurations on the Turbulent Quantities in a Complex Three-Dimensional Flow Field
- 1993
-
Ingår i: ASME-Fluid Engineering Conference, Washington DC.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Measurements of the Reynolds stress tensor have been carried out in a complex three-dimensional boundary layer using different techniques. Single-, cross- and three-hot-wire probes were employed together with a silicon based double chip sensor. All measurements were performed at a Reynolds number of 1.2 x ___ per meter. The turbulent stresses were determined at a reference position in a two-dimensional part of the flow field and at three locations with different strength of the three-dimensionality. A good agreement was found in the turbulent quantities measured with the different methods, however, the influence of prong interference, measuring volumes and velocity gradients were noted.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Measurements of the Reynolds stress tensor have been conducted with different techniques in the complex turbulent boundary layer of a curved duct, where the flow is changing from two-dimensional into a fully three-dimensional condition. Single-, cross- and triple hot-wire probes and a silicon based double-chip sensor were employed for measurements at a Reynolds unit number of 8 per meter. The Reynolds stresses were measured at a reference station in the two-dimensional part of the duct, and at five stations in the three-dimensional flow. Profiles of the different techniques were compared, and a good agreement was generally obtained between the investigated methods; however, deviations in certain parts of the profiles, due to prongs, probe body interference and influence of the size of the measuring volume were noted.

- This is the first part of a scientific statement from the Heart Failure Association (HFA) of the European Society of Cardiology focused upon the pathophysiology of Takotsubo syndrome and is complimentary to the previous HFA position statement on Takotsubo syndrome which focused upon clinical management. In part 1 we provide an overview of the pathophysiology of Takotsubo syndrome and fundamental questions to consider. We then review and discuss the central role of catecholamines and the sympathetic nervous system in the pathophysiology, and the direct effects of high surges in catecholamines upon myocardial biology including beta-adrenergic receptor signalling, G-protein coupled receptor kinases, cardiomyocyte calcium physiology, myofilament physiology, cardiomyocyte gene expression, myocardial electrophysiology and arrhythmogenicity, myocardial inflammation, metabolism and energetics. The integrated effects upon ventricular haemodynamics are discussed and integrated into the pathophysiological model.
