Another great collaboration with Grangeasse Lab from @mmsb-lyon.bsky.social 🔗 Preprint: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
#phagebiology #microbiome #drosophila #symbiosis #prophage #Lactobacillus
In this study, we show that a stress-inducible prophage in Lactiplantibacillus plantarum triggers controlled lysis, releasing phage particles and bacterial components that act as symbiotic cues promoting host development. 🦠➡️🪰
Thanks to everyone involved!
🌟 New preprint alert! 🌟 We’re excited to share the latest work from @francoisleulier.bsky.social lab, now on bioRxiv!

Looking forward to GRC LAB biology, symbiosis and applications this summer on the ☀️ Southern California coast this July 13-18!! www.grc.org/lactic-acid-...
Very excited to host the one and only @mads100tist.bsky.social at @igflyon.bsky.social in Lyon on April 7th! Don't hesitate to pass by for his talk if you're in the city, it promises to be a real treat!
Title of the presentation Metabolic flexibility of the Drosophila nervous system Short abstract Neuronal function consumes large amounts of energy. This energy needs to be provided in order to maintain homeostasis. To deal with this disproportionate demand, glial cells support neurons metabolically. Like their mammalian counterparts, Drosophila glial cells are very glycolytically active and provide lactate to the neurons under optimal conditions. Upon suboptimal conditions, several aspects of brain metabolism can be adapted. On the one hand, nutrient uptake into the nervous system is regulated to ensure nervous system function. On the other hand, glial cellular metabolism can adapt to changing conditions. E.g. when carbohydrate supply is not sufficient to meet the metabolic needs of the neurons, the glial cells switch to ß-oxidation of fatty acids and produce ketone bodies as an alternate fuel that they supply to neurons. It turns out that glial metabolism can be adapted to different conditions, like starvation or cold exposure, in different ways to ensure neuronal function. Short CV Stefanie Schirmeier graduated from the University of Bayreuth (Germany) and joined Dominique Ferrandon’s team at the University of Strasbourg (France), where she studied host-pathogen interactions using Drosophila melanogaster as a model. She contributed to a genome-wide genetic screen and discovered the compensatory proliferation of intestinal stem cells in response to gut infection, as well as identifying a bacterial virulence factor required to counteract the cellular immune response. She then moved to the University of Münster (Germany) for a postdoctoral position, joining Christian Klämbt’s team and later establishing her own research group there. Stefanie focused on investigating the physiology and metabolism of glial cells and uncovered their role in neuronal nutritional support via the astrocyte-neuron lactate shuttle. Since 2021, Stefanie has been a professor at Dresden Technic…
