Cytoskeletal Remodeling and Exocytosis During Mast Cell Activation is Controlled by the RhoA GEF, GEF-H1
DownloadFall 2021
Mast cells are tissue-resident immune cells that play important roles in health and diseases. Mast cells release their granule contents under antigen-stimulation via the FcεRI signaling pathway. The process of regulated exocytosis in mast cells is known as degranulation which participates in...

Background Mycosis fungoides (MF) is the most common cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). Early stage disease, limited to skin patches & plaques, is indolent. However, progression to tumour stage disease marks a significant drop in survival to less than 4 years. Treatments for advanced disease are...

Unveiling the pathway for the nuclear translocation of the large mitochondrial enzyme Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Complex (PDC)
DownloadSpring 2021
Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) is a mitochondrial enzyme that links glycolysis to oxidative phosphorylation by decarboxylating glucose-derived pyruvate to produce acetyl-CoA that is used in the Krebs cycle. PDC was initially thought to reside only in the mitochondrial matrix but we recently...

Construction and validation of a matrix for the estimation of exposures in the welding trades: a three-part series
DownloadSpring 2021
Galarneau, Jean-Michel, François
Introduction: This three-part series of papers aimed to construct and validate an exposure matrix that would be used to estimate personal airborne exposures to total dust, manganese, nickel, chromium and aluminum for welders in the What-me cohort. The Workers’ Health in Apprenticeship Trades:...

A Reversible Metabolic Stress-Sensitive Regulation of Collapsin Response Mediator Protein 2A Orchestrates Cytoskeletal Remodeling and EMT, Increasing Metastatic Potential in Cancer
DownloadFall 2021
Cancer represents the second leading cause of death globally only after heart disease and is responsible for about 10 million deaths per year with a significant economic impact (WHO facts). Moreover, its prevalence is projected to increase over the following decades. Among all cancers, breast,...

Isomaltodextrin dose-dependently reduces colitis development in HLA-B27 rat colitis model with associated changes to gut microbiota composition and short chain fatty acid production
DownloadFall 2021
Prevalence rates for inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) worldwide have been drastically increasing over recent decades. IBD is characterized by altered intestinal microbiome (i.e. dysbiosis), described by reduced strict butyrate-producing anaerobes versus increased facultative anaerobes in...

A Discrete Choice Experiment Pilot Study: Understanding Patient Preferences for In-centre Hemodialysis
DownloadFall 2021
Background: End-stage kidney disease (ESKD) is the failure of functioning kidneys such that they no longer have the capacity to sustain life without intervention. While the incidence of ESKD has remained generally stable across all ages of Canadians since 2000, the prevalence of ESKD has been...

Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) is a complex cholestatic liver disorder with both environmental and genetic factors that contribute to disease. While the etiology remains poorly understood, our lab continues to characterize the role of a human betaretrovirus (HBRV) in the disease process. Based...

Computed Tomography Perfusion (CTP) is a rapidly acquired minimally invasive mean to assess brain perfusion dynamics, collaterals and infarct growth in acute ischemic stroke (AIS). It helps differentiate expected stroke evolution and speed of core growth after arterial occlusion. The goals of...
