- Engineering of AMPfret : the first nano-sensor capable of measuring energy states in cells in vivo An international team of scientists, led by Uwe Schlattner at the University Grenoble Alpes & Inserm, and Imre Berger at the University of Bristol UK has now succeeded to engineer AMPfret, the first nano-sensor capable of measuring energy states in cells in vivo.

A systems approach to new paradigms in metabolic and epigenetic regulation
Understanding how environment and lifestyle can affect metabolism and thus reprogram a person’s genetic heritage by epigenetic changes for potential transmission across generations
Cellular metabolism reflects not only our genetic disposition, but also our lifestyle and environmental exposures, including the presence of noxious substances like endocrine disruptors. SYMER mobilizes an international and interdisciplinary consortium within a systems biology approach to analyze altered metabolic profiles, and how they can leave an imprint on our genes in form of potentially inheritable epigenetic changes. These changes are suspected to fuel the rising threat of chronic diseases across generations.
