Résumé : International audience
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the chronic respiratory disease with the most important burden on public health in terms of morbidity, mortality and health costs. For patients, COPD is a major source of disability because of dyspnea, restriction in daily activities, exacerbation, risk of chronic respiratory failure and extra-respiratory systemic organ disorders. The previous French Language Respiratory Society (SPLF) guidelines on COPD exacerbations were published in 2003. Using the GRADE methodology, the present document reviews the current knowledge on COPD exacerbation through 4 specific outlines: (1) epidemiology, (2) clinical evaluation, (3) therapeutic management and (4) prevention. Specific aspects of outpatients and inpatients care are discussed, especially regarding assessment of exacerbation severity and pharmacological approach.

Résumé : Leporinus friderici is a South American promising species for fish culture. In French Guiana the "morphological species", L. friderici, L. granti, L. lebaili and L. affinis steyermarki are found. Their identification is sometimes difficult on usual criterion. To constitute an initial broodstock of L. friderici from local wild populations, the genetic structure of these species was studied. Fifteen enzyme systems, representing twenty loci, were screened.

Résumé : International audience
The mycotoxin alternariol (AOH), a frequent contaminant in fruit and grain, is known to induce cellular stress responses such as reactive oxygen production, DNA damage and cell cycle arrest. Cellular stress is often connected to autophagy, and we employed the RAW264.7 macrophage model to test the hypothesis that AOH induces autophagy. Indeed, AOH treatment led to a massive increase in acidic vacuoles often observed upon autophagy induction. Moreover, expression of the autophagy marker LC3 was markedly increased and there was a strong accumulation of LC3-positive puncta. Increased autophagic activity was verified biochemically by measuring the degradation rate of long-lived proteins. Furthermore, AOH induced expression of Sestrin2 and phosphorylation of AMPK as well as reduced phosphorylation of mTOR and S6 kinase, common mediators of signaling pathways involved in autophagy. Transmission electron microscopy analyzes of AOH treated cells not only clearly displayed structures associated with autophagy such as autophagosomes and autolysosomes, but also the appearance of lamellar bodies. Prolonged AOH treatment resulted in changed cell morphology from round into more star-shaped as well as increased β-galactosidase activity. This suggests that the cells eventually entered senescence. In conclusion, our data identify here AOH as an inducer of both autophagy and senescence. These effects are suggested to be to be linked to AOH-induced DSB (via a reported effect on topoisomerase activity), resulting in an activation of p53 and the Sestrin2-AMPK-mTOR-S6K signaling pathway.

Résumé : International audience
BOI1 and BOI2 are paralogs important for the actin cytoskeleton andpolar growth. BOI1 encodes a meiotic transcript isoform with an extended5-untranslated region predicted to impair protein translation. It is,however, unknown how the isoform is repressed during mitosis, and ifBoi1 is present during sporulation. By interpreting microarray data fromMATa cells, MATa/ cells, a starving MAT/ control, and a meiosis-impairedrrp6 mutant, we classified BOI1's extended isoform as earlymeiosis-specific. These results were confirmed by RNA-Sequencing, andextended by a 5-RACE assay and Northern blotting, showing that meioticcells induce the long isoform while the mitotic isoform remainsdetectable during meiosis. We provide evidence via motif predictions, anin vivo binding assay and genetic experiments that the Rpd3/Sin3/Ume6histone deacetylase complex, which represses meiotic genes duringmitosis, also prevents the induction of BOI1's 5-extended isoform inmitosis by direct binding of Ume6 to its URS1 target. Finally, we findthat Boi1 protein levels decline when cells switch from fermentation torespiration and sporulation. The histone deacetylase Rpd3 is conserved,and eukaryotic genes frequently encode transcripts with variable 5-UTRs.Our findings are therefore relevant for regulatory mechanisms involvedin the control of transcript isoforms in multi-cellular organisms.

Résumé : International audience
Purpose: Social inequalities in cancer incidence and mortality have been reported in France, but no data are available for the French overseas territories. Our objective was to explore the association between cancer incidence and the socioeconomic level of the residence area in the French West Indies. Methods: Cancer incidence data were obtained from the cancer registries of Guadeloupe and Martinique (2009–2010). To assess socioeconomic status, we developed a specific index of social deprivation from census data at a small area level. We used Bayesian methods to evaluate the association between cancer incidence and the deprivation index, for all cancers combined and for the major cancer sites. Results: There was no clear association between area‐based deprivation and the incidence of all cancers combined. In men, higher area deprivation was associated with a higher incidence of prostate cancer (relative risk (RR) 1.25, 95% credible interval (CI) 1.04–1.49; RR 1.08, CI 0.91–1.29 in the categories of intermediate and high deprivation, respectively, compared to low deprivation), but was not associated with respiratory cancer. Women living in the most deprived areas had a higher incidence of stomach (RR 1.77, CI 1.12–2.89), breast (RR 1.15, CI 0.90–1.45), and cervical (RR 1.13, CI 0.63–2.01) cancers and a lower incidence of respiratory cancer (RR 0.65, CI 0.38–1.11). Conclusion: These first results in the French West Indies suggest specific patterns for some cancer sites that need to be further investigated. © 2017, Springer International Publishing AG.

Résumé : International audience
OBJECTIVE: To explore the relationship between prenatal hemoglobin (Hb) concentration and infant cognitive and motor functions. METHODS: Our prospective cohort study included 1-year-old children born to women enrolled at their first antenatal care (ANC) visit in Allada, Benin, before 29 weeks of pregnancy, within a trial comparing the efficacy of sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine and mefloquine. Hb concentrations of pregnant women were determined from venous blood samples collected at first and second ANC visits of at least 1-month interval and at delivery. Women were prescribed oral iron, folic acid, and anthelminthics after the first ANC visit. A total of 636 children (76.8% of eligible children) were assessed by trained research nurses for cognitive and motor functions by using the Mullen Scales of Early Learning. RESULTS: Prevalence of anemia (Hb extless 110 g/L) decreased from 67.0% at first ANC visit (mean gestational age [SD], 22.1 [4.0] weeks) to 38.4% at delivery. Mean (SD) Hb concentrations increased from 103.7 (12.3) at first ANC visit to 112.4 (14.1) at delivery. We observed a significant negative quadratic relationship between infant gross motor (GM) function and Hb concentration at first and second ANC visits. Thus, infant GM scores increased sharply with increasing maternal Hb concentration until 90 g/L where increasing GM was mild, and began to decline after 110 g/L. CONCLUSIONS: There appears to be an Hb concentration range that may be optimal for GM function of 1-year-old children. This may reflect the importance of physiologic hemodilution, which occurs after the second trimester until 34 weeks of gestation

Résumé : International audience
The sediments of the Mauges Unit located in the internal zone provide an opportunity of studying the evolution of relief during Palaeozoic time. U-Pb dating on zircon and 39Ar/40Ar on white mica are used to constrain the age and nature of the sources. The first relief identified is marked by an Early Devonian unconformity interpreted as the opening of a northern back-arc basin. Detrital minerals are first reworked from underlying layers indicating a local supply. Magmatic zircons at c. 400 Ma then record the emergence of a magmatic arc. During the Middle Devonian, the gap in the sedimentary record is attributed to an emersion followed by the disappearance of the relief during the Late Devonian. At the Devonian-Carboniferous boundary, the main collision is followed by the onset of a relief. The continental sedimentation in the Ancenis Basin (late Tournaisian-Viséan) is a coarsening-upwards megasequence indicating an increasing and/or approaching relief. The detrital minerals record the progressive exhumation of Variscan metamorphic (mica at c. 350 Ma) and magmatic rocks (zircons at c. 390-340 Ma). The Serpukhovian-Bashkirian sedimentation records the erosion of a proximal metamorphic source (Champtoceaux with micas at c. 350-340 Ma) showing a much shorter drainage system

Résumé : Atmospheric carbon dioxide records indicate that the land surface has acted as a strong global carbon sink over recent decades, with a substantial fraction of this sink probably located in the tropics, particularly in the Amazon. Nevertheless, it is unclear how the terrestrial carbon sink will evolve as climate and atmospheric composition continue to change. Here we analyse the historical evolution of the biomass dynamics of the Amazon rainforest over three decades using a distributed network of 321 plots. While this analysis confirms that Amazon forests have acted as a long-term net biomass sink, we find a long-term decreasing trend of carbon accumulation. Rates of net increase in above-ground biomass declined by one-third during the past decade compared to the 1990s. This is a consequence of growth rate increases levelling off recently, while biomass mortality persistently increased throughout, leading to a shortening of carbon residence times. Potential drivers for the mortality increase include greater climate variability, and feedbacks of faster growth on mortality, resulting in shortened tree longevity. The observed decline of the Amazon sink diverges markedly from the recent increase in terrestrial carbon uptake at the global scale, and is contrary to expectations based on models.

Résumé : International audience
A strong non linear relationship between nitrate and organic matter (assessed by dissolved organic carbon, DOC) has been recently demonstrated by Taylor and Townsend (2010), namely for freshwaters. In this context, our study explores this relation from the behavior of sets of normalized UV spectra (same area under each spectrum) of different water samples showing a hidden isosbestic point (HIP) around 225 nm. This HIP is linked to the existence of a simple relation between nitrate and DOC, the proportions of which vary according to the sampling location and environmental factors. In a second step, a simple linear model is proposed for nitrate-DOC relationship (α⋅NO3+β⋅DOC=1) and a validation is proposed for more than 150 samples of different Brittany rivers and lakes. For samples of the largest watershed, a complementary exploitation from data acquired during the different campaigns confirmed the seasonal evolution between spring (high nitrate/low DOC) and autumn (high DOC/low nitrate). Further investigation on other freshwater samples is needed in order to improve the limits of this linear model.

Résumé : International audience
Several forthcoming wireless telecommunication systems will use electromagnetic frequencies at millimeter waves (MMWs), and technologies developed around the 60-GHz band will soon know a widespread distribution. Free nerve endings within the skin have been suggested to be the targets of MMW therapy which has been used in the former Soviet Union. So far, no studies have assessed the impact of MMW exposure on neuronal metabolism. Here, we investigated the effects of a 24-h MMW exposure at 60.4 GHz, with an incident power density (IPD) of 5 mW/cm2, on the dopaminergic turnover of NGF-treated PC12 cells. After MMW exposure, both intracellular and extracellular contents of dopamine (DA) and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) were studied using high performance liquid chromatography. Impact of exposure on the dopamine transporter (DAT) expression was also assessed by immunocytochemistry. We analyzed the dopamine turnover by assessing the ratio of DOPAC to DA, and measuring DOPAC accumulation in the medium. Neither dopamine turnover nor DAT protein expression level were impacted by MMW exposure. However, extracellular accumulation of DOPAC was found to be slightly increased, but not significantly. This result was related to the thermal effect, and overall, no evidence of non-thermal effects of MMW exposure were observed on dopamine metabolism. © 2017 The Author.

Résumé : International audience
2-Amino-9H-pyrido[2,3-b]indole (AalphaC) is the most abundant carcinogenic heterocyclic aromatic amine (HAA) formed in mainstream tobacco smoke. AalphaC is a liver carcinogen in rodents, but its carcinogenic potential in humans is not known. To obtain a better understanding of the genotoxicity of AalphaC in humans, we have investigated its metabolism and its ability to form DNA adducts in human hepatocytes. Primary human hepatocytes were treated with AalphaC at doses ranging from 0.1-50 muM, and the metabolites were characterized by ultra-performance LC/ion trap multistage mass spectrometry (UPLC/MSn). Six major metabolites were identified: a ring-oxidized doubly conjugated metabolite, N2-acetyl-2-amino-9H-pyrido[2,3-b]indole-6-yl-oxo-(beta-d-glucuronic acid) (N2-acetyl-AalphaC-6-O-Gluc); two ring-oxidized glucuronide (Gluc) conjugates: 2-amino-9H-pyrido[2,3-b]indol-3-yl-oxo-(beta-d-glucuronic acid) (AalphaC-3-O-Gluc) and 2-amino-9H-pyrido[2,3-b]indol-6-yl-oxo-(beta-d-glucuronic acid) (AalphaC-6-O-Gluc); two sulfate conjugates, 2-amino-9H-pyrido[2,3-b]indol-3-yl sulfate (AalphaC-3-O-SO3H) and 2-amino-9H-pyrido[2,3-b]indol-6-yl sulfate (AalphaC-6-O-SO3H); and the Gluc conjugate, N2-(beta-d-glucosidurony1)-2-amino-9H-pyrido[2,3-b]indole (AalphaC-N2-Gluc). In addition, four minor metabolites were identified: N2-acetyl-9H-pyrido[2,3-b]indol-3-yl sulfate (N2-acetyl-AalphaC-3-O-SO3H), N2-acetyl-9H-pyrido[2,3-b]indol-6-yl sulfate (N2-acetyl-AalphaC-6-O-SO3H), N2-acetyl-2-amino-9H-pyrido[2,3-b]indol-3-yl-oxo-(beta-d-glucuronic acid) (N2-acetyl-AalphaC-3-O-Gluc), and O-(beta-d-glucosidurony1)-2-hydroxyamino-9H-pyrido[2,3-b]indole (AalphaC-HN2-O-Gluc). The latter metabolite, AalphaC-HN2-O-Gluc is a reactive intermediate that binds to DNA to form the covalent adduct N-(2'-deoxyguanosin-8-yl)-2-amino-9H-pyrido[2,3-b]indole (dG-C8-AalphaC). Preincubation of hepatocytes with furafylline, a selective mechanism-based inhibitor of P450 1A2, resulted in a strong decrease in the formation of AalphaC-HN2-O-Gluc and a concomitant decrease in DNA adduct formation. Our findings describe the major pathways of metabolism of AalphaC in primary human hepatocytes and reveal the importance of N-acetylation and glucuronidation in metabolism of AalphaC. P450 1A2 is a major isoform involved in the bioactivation of AalphaC to form the reactive AalphaC-HN2-O-Gluc conjugate and AalphaC-DNA adducts.

The respiratory manifestations of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) have not been studied in detail. In this retrospective multicentre study, EGPA was defined by asthma, eosinophilia and at least one new onset extra-bronchopulmonary organ manifestation of disease. The study population included 157 patients (mean±SD age 49.4±14.1 years), with a mean±SD blood eosinophil count of 7.4±6.4×109 L-1 at diagnosis. There was a mean±SD of 11.8±18.2 years from the onset of asthma to the diagnosis of EGPA, of 1.4±8.4 years from the first onset of peripheral eosinophilia to the diagnosis of EGPA, and of 7.4±6.4 years from EGPA diagnosis to the final visit. Despite inhaled and oral corticosteroid treatment, the severity of asthma increased 3-6 months before the onset of the systemic manifestations. Asthma was severe in 57%, 48%, and 56% of patients at diagnosis, at 3 years, and at the final visit, respectively. Persistent airflow obstruction was present in 38%, 30%, and 46% at diagnosis, at 3 years, and at the final visit, respectively. In EGPA, asthma is severe, antedates systemic manifestations by a mean of 12 years, and progresses to long-term persistent airflow obstruction despite corticosteroids in a large proportion of patients, which affects long-term management and morbidity.

Résumé : International audience
The diagnosis of diabetic foot infections is difficult due to limitations of conventional culture-based techniques. The objective of this study was to evaluate the contribution of denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) in the microbiological diagnosis of diabetic foot ulcers in comparison to conventional techniques, and also to evaluate the need to perform a biopsy sample for this diagnosis. Twenty diabetic patients (types 1 and 2) with foot ulcers (grades 1-4) were included. After debridement of their wounds, samples were taken in duplicate by surface swabbing and deep-tissue biopsy. The samples were analyzed by conventional culture and by a new molecular biology tool, DGGE technology. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-DGGE led to the identification of more bacteria than did conventional cultures (mean: 2.35 vs 0.80, respectively). In 11 cases, the technology detected pathogenic species not isolated by classical cultures. PCR-DGGE also identified significantly more pathogenic species at deep levels compared with species detected at superficial levels (87% vs 58%, respectively; P = 0.03). In 9/20 cases, pathogenic bacteria were detected only in deep samples, revealing the need to perform tissue biopsy sampling. DGGE, achievable in 48h, could be a useful technique for the bacteriological diagnosis of diabetic foot infections. It may help to identify pathogenic bacteria in deeply infected ulcers, thereby contributing to a more appropriate use of antibiotics.

Résumé : International audience
AIM: To assess the effects of iron removal on cytochrome P450 2E1 activity and oxidative stress in dysmetabolic iron overload syndrome. METHODS: Forty-eight patients were randomized to phlebotomy therapy consisting of removal of 300-500 mL of blood every 14 days until serum ferritin levels dropped under 100 microg/L or to follow-up without phlebotomy therapy. Cytochrome P450 2E1 activity was measured at baseline and at the end of treatment by using the 6-hydroxychlorzoxazone/chlorzoxazone blood metabolic ratio, 2 h after the intake of 500 mg of chlorzoxazone. RESULTS: In the treatment group, a mean of 3.9 +/- 1.3 L of blood was removed and serum ferritin levels dropped from 715 +/- 397 to 74 +/- 34 microg/L. Variation of cytochrome P450 2E1 activity was not significantly different between the 2 groups (0.07 +/- 0.26 vs. 0.03 +/- 0.19, P = 0.36). In the treatment group, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and vitamin E were lowered after treatment compared with control group (-0.15 +/- 0.51 vs. 0.24 +/- 0.58, P = 0.002 and -1.3 +/- 4.4 vs. 2.3 +/- 5.2, P = 0.03, respectively). Inversely, vitamin C was increased (0.5 +/- 3.5 vs. -1.8 +/- 3.9, P = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS: In dysmetabolic iron overload syndrome, reduction of iron stores does not significantly influence cytochrome P450 2E1 activity but is associated with a significant decrease of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, suggesting that venesection therapy may be a suitable option in these patients.
