Skeletal muscle is a highly adaptable tissue that relies on a pool of resident muscle stem cells to maintain homeostasis, regenerate after injury, and respond to environmental stress. These muscle stem cells, also known as satellite cells, exhibit significant heterogeneity, with distinct subpopulations playing specialized roles in muscle repair. A key determinant of this functional diversity is Pax3, a transcription factor with a key roles in embryonic muscle development. The presentation will explore the role of Pax3 in driving heterogeneity during development and in the adaptive response to muscle injury. Using a combination of genetic models, lineage tracing, and single-cell RNA sequencing, we have identified distinct Pax3-dependent regulatory networks that govern Pax3 function during development. In addition, we have explored the role of Pax3 in adult muscle stem cell. Loss of Pax3 leads to impaired muscle satellite activation, reduced regenerative capacity, and disrupted muscle repair. These findings not only shed light on the mechanisms underlying muscle stem cell heterogeneity but also provide insights into the evolutionary regulation of muscle stem cells and potential therapeutic strategies for muscle-wasting disorders. Understanding the molecular circuits that control adult stem cell behavior will be essential for developing regenerative medicine approaches aimed at enhancing muscle repair in aging and disease.

Invite par l’equipe Courtier, Marla Sokolowski (Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Toronto) va presenter un seminaire de l’Institut Jacques Monod sur le theme : The foraging gene: will that be for here or to go? Resume : The Drosophila melanogaster foraging (for) gene, with its rover and sitter larval foraging variants, is an established behaviour genetics model. Orthologues of the foraging gene also modulate the individual and social behaviour of a wide range of species including the regulation of behaviour in eusocial insects. In Drosophila, foraging modifies the expression of multiple traits, including feeding and foraging, stress tolerance, sleep, metabolism, dispersal, escape responses, social behaviour, and learning and memory. From a social context perspective, Drosophila foraging affects larval clustering during foraging under high larval densities, adult social behaviour and social networks, and social learning. We wondered how foraging accomplishes its behavioural pleiotropy at the molecular level. We found that D. melanogaster foraging has a complex modular genomic structure with four promoters, 21 transcripts, and eight protein isoforms. The four promoter modules are differentially regulated during development and in a timescale, tissue, and cell-type dependent manner. Two examples illustrate these findings: the epigenetic regulation of the adult rover-sitter foraging-related phenotypes by G9a, a histone methyltransferase, and the regulation of differences in the latency of rover compared to sitter larval escape responses to noxious stimuli such as parasitoid wasps. Our work provides a nuanced picture of the molecular basis of foraging's pleiotropy. Plus d'infos...

Invite par l’Institut Jacques Monod, Nathaniel Henneman (team of Ganna Panasyuk at Institut Necker Enfants Malades (INEM)) va presenter un Paris Postdoc Seminar sur le theme : Nuclear functions of nutrient sensing signaling for metabolic adaptation Presentation et resume : I am a Postdoc in the team of Ganna Panasyuk at Institut Necker Enfants Malades (INEM). I graduated from Bates College (USA) in 2016, majoring in Biology. I then spent two years working on retinal degeneration at Emory University beforeobtaining my master's degree at University of Paris Descartes in 2019 and defended my PhD in December 2023. One of the key questions I am to address in my work is how cellular metabolism, gene expression and transcription, are all coordinated. Energy stress in fasting is managed by activating autophagy and promoting the transcriptional remodeling of metabolism. Cytosolic nutrient sensors coordinate extracellular nutrient availability with intracellular metabolic processes to allow for cell survival. Class 3 PI3K is a highly conserved nutrient sensor known to regulate autophagy and endocytosis in response to varying nutrient conditions. It's direct role in transcription, however, was only suggested in few studies in yeast and plants. However, we believe there is a nuclear pool of class 3 PI3K that directly regulates gene expression for metabolic adaptation. My work aims to address this unmet burden in the field. We find that nuclear class 3 PI3K regulates the transcriptional response to nutrient stress by controlling RNA Polymerase II, the Set1/COMPASS methyltransferase, and nuclear methionine to SAM flux. I aim to understand how these players are needed for our fasting adaptation and how these mechanisms could affect our metabolic resilience. Plus d'infos...

Mitochondria are double membrane-bound organelles that perform biosynthetic and signaling roles to control the life and death of the cell. Mitochondria are paramount to the metabolism and survival of cardiomyocytes, which have the most densely packed inner mitochondrial membrane of all cells. Cardiomyocytes are exquisitely sensitive to perturbations of mitochondrial structure, which can lead trigger downstream maladaptive and compensatory responses. In my talk, I will share our latest, unpublished findings using mouse models we have developed that have revealed the importance of inner mitochondrial membrane integrity in restraining cardiac inflammation and the emerging effects that biological sex can have on these phenomena.

Le vendredi 7 mars, Andrea Musacchio (Max Planck Institute of Molecular physiology) presentera une Conference de l'Institut Jacques Monod sur le theme : Feedback control of mitosis in the context of the kinetochore Resume : Kinetochores provide chromosomes with points of attachment to spindle microtubules during cell division, and are therefore essential for genome inheritance and the propagation of life. In addition to binding microtubules, kinetochores control mitotic surveillance mechanisms that promote chromosome bi-orientation (the error correction mechanism) and prevent premature mitotic exit in presence of incomplete or incorrect microtubule attachments (spindle assembly checkpoint, SAC). Elimination of the NDC80 complex, the main microtubule receptor of kinetochores, causes a SAC deficiency, identifying this complex as a crucial regulatory focus for checkpoint function. In recent years, there has been considerable progress in understanding how the SAC effector, known as the mitotic checkpoint complex (MCC), assembles from its individual components to inhibit its target, the anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C). Conversely, how microtubule attachment to kinetochores regulates the SAC remains incompletely understood. From a molecular perspective, answering this question implies investigating the mechanisms that promote targeting of the SAC proteins to unattached kinetochores, and suppress it upon microtubule binding and biorientation. In our recent work, we have combined biochemical reconstitutions, structural biology/modelling, and cell biology to gain insights into this fundamental biological question. Plus d'infos...

Invite par: Marie-Agnes Petit Evolution is an inexorable force that hinders our best efforts to control infectious diseases. When it comes to pathogenic bacteria, the conventional approach shoot antibiotics first, ask questions later? has undoubtedly saved many lives but has led to widespread resistance. To effectively address the challenges of the looming post-antibiotic era, we must seek solutions based on a comprehensive understanding of pathogen evolution in relevant ecological contexts. A crucial aspect of bacterial infections is that pathogens rarely exist in isolation within their respective niches. The host harbors diverse microbial communities that compete with invading pathogens, and mutants from pathogenic strains compete with each other during infections. Our work focuses on the key role of competitive exclusion in pathogen evolution. I will present recent findings that illustrate how this fundamental ecological concept can lead to evolutionary robust solutions to combat bacterial infections. Plus d'infos...

Invite par: Naima Belgareh-Touze Previous studies using ubiquitin traps combined with mass spectrometry revealed that in Bortezomib (BTZ) resistant Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL) cells, a selective autophagy mechanism, known as proteaphagy, was a main mechanism eliminating the proteasome and reducing the sensitivity to this treatment. In order to recover the sensitivity to BTZ we have tackled two main molecules that were found enriched in the ubiquitin proteome of those cells, the autophagy receptor p62 and the Tripartite Motif Containing protein 24 (TRIM24) ubiquitin ligase. To investigate how TRIM24 could contribute to this proteolytic crosstalk, dTRIM24, a proteolysis-targeting chimera (PROTAC), was employed. dTRIM24 treatment enhanced apoptosis in BTZ-resistant ZBR cells, but no significant difference was observed compared to the parental, BTZ-sensitive Z138 cells. However, the dTRIM24/BTZ combination significantly enhances cooperativity and drives an efficient apoptosis in ZBR cells. The use of a ZBRTRIM24 KO cell line further confirmed the important role of TRIM24 in the triggering of cell death in the context of BTZ resistance. Reducing the TRIM24 protein level in ZBR cells by dTRIM24 or in the context of the ZBRTRIM24 KO cell line allowed the recovery of proteasome activity and explained the apoptosis efficacy observed with the dTRIM24/BTZ treatment. Interestingly, proteaphagy is not significantly affected in the ZBRTRIM24 KO compared to the parental ZBR cell line, indicating that TRIM24 does not directly regulate proteaphagy. Instead, dTRIM24 treatment resulted in the remodeling of protein ubiquitination favoring the accumulation of K48 Ub chains and their interaction with proteasome subunits. A similar PROTAC strategy was used to tackle p62 and advances on this approach will be presented. Altogether, our data indicate that TRIM24 and p62 play an important role as a regulators of UPS/ALS crosstalk by distinct mechanisms, either by regulating the abundance of K63 vs K48 chains or directly blocking proteaphagy. Understanding the key molecular mechanisms underlying this process is crucial for the development of new combination therapies with the ability to overcome BTZ refractoriness or in general regulating selective autophagy events in distinct pathologies.

Invite par: Etienne Morel - Cedric Delevoye Aurelien Roux studied biology at the Ecole Normale Superieure de Lyon, France (1997-1999), with a minor in Physics. He did a Master of Physics, University Denis Diderot, Paris (1999-2000). As a Ph.D student with Patricia Bassereau and Bruno Goud (Curie Institute, Paris, 2000-2004), he studied how lipids can be sorted by membrane curvature. He then did his post-doctoral work with Pietro de Camilli (2004-2007, Yale, USA), reconstituting in vitro dynamin mediated membrane fission, which he continued as a CNRS staff scientist (Institut Curie, Paris, 2007-2010). Appointed assistant professor of Biochemistry, Geneva (2010-2015), he expanded his work towards ESCRT-III, the most ancient and ubiquitous fission machinery in the cell. In 2016, he was tenured to associate professor at Unige, and then Full professor in 2020. During this period, he developed assays to reconstitute spontaneous morphogenesis of cellular assemblies in vitro.Seminar topic: Asgard archaea reveals the conserved principles of ESCRT-III membrane remodellingESCRT-III proteins assemble into composite polymers that undergo stepwise changes in composition and structure to deform membranes across the tree of life. Here, using a phylogenetic analysis we demonstrate that the two ESCRT-III proteins present in our closest archaeal relatives, Asgard, are evolutionarily related to B-type and A-type eukaryotic paralogues that initiate and execute membrane remodelling, respectively. We show how Asgard ESCRT-IIIB can assemble into parallel arrays on planar membranes to initiate membrane deformation and is required to recruit ESCRT-IIIA to generate composite polymers. Finally, Asgard ESCRT-IIIA is able to remodel membranes into tubes, as a likely prelude to scission. Taken together, our data reveal a set of conserved principles governing ESCRT-III-dependent membrane remodelling that first emerged in a two-component ESCRT-III system in archaea. Plus d'infos...

Invite par: Cristel Archambaud Coxiella burnetii, the causal agent of the Q fever, is an obligate intracellular pathogen that replicates within host cells. This lifestyle relies on the formation of Coxiella-containing vacuoles (CCVs), specialized vacuoles that provide a shielded environment for bacterial replication, enabling C. burnetii to evade host immune defences and establish persistent infections. CCV development hinges on bacterial effector proteins translocated into host cells through a Type 4 Secretion System (T4SS), which interact with host proteins to subvert membrane trafficking. Expanding on the earlier identification of CvpB as a C. burnetii Lipid-Interacting Effector (LIE) that manipulates PI(3)P metabolism, we have conducted further investigations into the lipid composition of CCVs. Use of lipid binding probes revealed that PI(3)P, PI(4)P and LBPA were actively enriched at the CCV by T4SS effectors. We have identified the effector Vice as an additional LIE responsible for LPBA enrichment at the CCV. Vice interacts with phosphoinositides and late endosomal membranes, enriched in phosphatidylserine (PS) and lysobisphosphatidic acid (LBPA). CCVs generated by the vice::Tn mutants are negative for LBPA, showed a strong defect in size and an altered morphology as compared to wt CCVs. Strikingly, ectopic expression of Vice in eukaryotic cells leads to the formation of compartments reminiscent of early CCVs in both morphology, protein and lipid composition. The biogenesis of these Vice-induced compartments (VICs) is driven by an intriguing dual role of Vice. Initially, the effector localizes at the plasma membrane of eukaryotic cells, triggering the internalization of large vacuoles through the induction of macropinocytosis. Subsequently, Vice stabilizes VICs by disrupting the ESCRT machinery, impeding the formation of intraluminal vesicles (ILVs), with consequences on the release of extracellular vesicles (EVs). Taken together, our findings highlight Vice as a pivotal C. burnetii effector capable of exploiting two major cellular pathways to shape the bacterial replicative environment. Plus d'infos...

Invite par: Etienne Morel Jacky Goetz graduated in Pharmacology and Cell Biology from University of Strasbourg (France) in the laboratory of K.TAKEDA. He then moved to the laboratory of I.R. NABI in Montreal (University of Montreal, Canada), and later in Vancouver (University of British Columbia, Canada), where he obtained his PhD in 2007. He performed two postdoctoral stays, one at the CNIC in Madrid (Spain) in the laboratory of M.A. DEL POZO, and one in the lab of J.VERMOT at the IGBMC in Strasbourg (France). Fascinated by tumor metastasis, its mechanical aspects and the use of state-of-the-art microscopy approaches in several animal models, he created the TUMOR BIOMECHANICS LAB in 2013. Quickly joined by a team of experts in imaging, mechanobiology, extracellular vesicles, he built a task force aiming at further dissecting the mechanisms and mechanics of tumor dissemination. The team made several exciting discoveries around tumor metastasis that were acknowledged by several prizes (SBCF, Ruban Rose, Academy of Sciences, Fondation de France). When he is not in the lab, Jacky is either running, swimming or biking and loves competing during half IronMan triathlons (70.3). You can also find him traveling with his family, during sabbaticals (Australia, South Africa), always thinking about the next trip. Fascinated by Japan but also by Alsace, where he grew up, he could kill for sushi and loves the alsatian architecture.Seminar topic: Multi-modal tracking of metastasis : from priming to inhibitory targets Plus d'infos...

Invite par: Pascale Serror Metazoans, including Drosophila and mammals, maintain complex interactions with their gut microorganisms, which play a crucial role in host physiology, particularly juvenile growth under chronic undernutrition. Nutrient deprivation often leads to stunted growth and disrupted gut microbiota maturation, but microbial interventions, including Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (Lp), can mitigate these effects. Lp promotes juvenile growth in Drosophila by stimulating protease expression in intestinal cells through bacterial cell envelope components, notably peptidoglycan and d-alanylated lipoteichoic acids (d-Ala-LTA), via an NF-?B-dependent pathway. Similar effects have been observed in undernourished mice, where Lp cell envelopes alone are sufficient to promote growth. Plus d'infos...

The development of complex in vitro models, such as organoids, gastruloids and organ-on-chips systems, will allow the better understanding of human biological processes that are otherwise difficult to address with classical in vitro 2D culture and/or with animal models. Elucidating how pathogens, such as the SARS-CoV-2, invade human cells by evading the immune system and how this could be modulated by the host microbiota has been greatly facilitated by the advancement of 3D cell culture techniques. For example, mimicking the gut peristalsis in gut-on-a-chip device improves the maturation of colon epithelial cells and aid to unveil the role of mechanical stress in accelerating enteropathogen invasion. Our lab is working on establishing unique advanced microphysiological systems that can mimic the interaction between human epithelial barriers with the surrounding tissues, such as blood vessels, mesenchyme and immune cells. My scientific project is focused on the establishment of lung-on-chip devices that cover the entire respiratory tract (from the nasopharynx to the alveoli) as a platform to understand airborne infections and tropism of respiratory viruses. There we relay both on the use of lung multipotent stem cells grown as organoids, in order to produce the different cell population of the respiratory tract, and on microfluidic chips.

The escalating spread and density of tick populations underscore the urgent need for enhanced surveillance and risk assessment strategies for tick-borne diseases (TBD). Biomarkers derived from the antibody response to tick saliva can be used to facilitate the surveillance of vector establishment in novel regions, assess anti-vector interventions and diagnose TBD through documentation of antecedent tick bites in suspected cases. Here, we derived short peptides from previously identified immunogenic proteins—namely IrCRT, IrSPI, and IrLIP—through bioinformatic predictive analysis using the Immune Epitope Database. ELISAs performed with experimentally controlled sheep sera infested with Ixodes ricinus were used to assess the level of antibody response of IgM and IgG to the peptides derived from these three proteins. Next, we tested the candidates on sera derived from both field and clinical isolates of tick-exposed individuals. For all sera, we obtained different IgM and IgG responses with varying degrees of immunogenicity detected per peptide. Further, through use of an exploratory microarray assay (PepperPrint™), we selected new peptides based on their ability to be recognized using serum from experimentally infested sheep. Amongst the top randomly generated peptides, we found a more specific immunogenic response against the IgG antibodies when compared to IgM. Selected candidates were further tested against experimentally-controlled infested sheep sera, as well as field and clinical isolates. Finally, candidates were cross-validated against mosquito-exposed sera to ensure vector specificity. This study offers the potential for developing new effective strategies for the surveillance and diagnosis of tick-related risks as well as the control and prevention of TBD.
