Although this practice is known to cause a wine fault, the influence of light on the fruity and flowery aromatic profile of wine is unknown. The aim of this study was to i...

Microorganisms maintain metabolic activity in clouds, with recognized impacts on chemical reactivity by contributing to the processing of small organic compounds, radicals and their precursors. However, the conditions in clouds can be highly contrasted (temperature, light, etc), and it remains un...

Grape juice is a major source of potential health-promoting bioactive polyphenols, especially for children and those who do not consume wine. Since the subtropical climate may negatively affect the concentrations of grape polyphenols, especially anthocyanins, elicitors such as methyl jasmonate (M...

BACKGROUND: Large-scale, placebo-controlled trials established that nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs confer a cardiovascular hazard: this has been attributed to depression of cardioprotective products of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2, especially prostacyclin. An alternative mechanis...

Cd248 has recently been associated with adipose tissue physiology, demonstrated by reduced weight gain in high fat diet-fed mice with genetic deletion of Cd248 relative to controls. Here we set out to determine the metabolic consequences of loss of Cd248. Strikingly, we find these to be sex speci...
