Overview

Jacques Piette is affiliated with the University of Liège in Belgium and has contributed extensively to the field of medicine, with a particular focus on physiology, immunology, epidemiology, rheumatology, and cellular and molecular neuroscience. Their research portfolio spans topics such as GDF15 and related biomarkers, nutrition and health in aging, immune cell function and interaction, adipokines, inflammation, and metabolic diseases, macrophage migration inhibitory factor, nuclear receptors and signaling, and photodynamic therapy research studies.

Their recent scholarly contributions include the following papers:

  • Saturated Fatty Acids Promote GDF15 Expression in Human Macrophages through the PERK/eIF2/CHOP Signaling Pathway, 2020, Nutrients
  • Adipose tissue macrophage infiltration and hepatocyte stress increase GDF-15 throughout development of obesity to MASH, 2024, Nature Communications
  • Tetracationic porphyrin derivatives against human breast cancer, 2021, Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology B Biology
  • Novel XBP1s-independent function of IRE1 RNase in HIF-1α-mediated glycolysis upregulation in human macrophages upon stimulation with LPS or saturated fatty acid, 2023, Frontiers in Immunology
  • New Insights on the PBMCs Phospholipidome in Obesity Demonstrate Modulations Associated with Insulin Resistance and Glycemic Status, 2021, Nutrients

Frequent co-authors collaborating with Jacques Piette include:

  • Sylvie Legrand-Poels
  • Chloé Wilkin
  • Laurent L'homme
  • Nathalie Esser
  • Nicolas Paquot

Jacques Piette has published multiple times in several academic venues, with frequent appearances in:

  • Biochemical Pharmacology
  • Nutrients
  • Frontiers in Immunology
  • Nature Communications
