Today in @naturecomms.bsky.social we show the #FutileCreatineCycle plays a key role in #thermogenesis, independent of UCP1. We also challenge the belief that brown adipocytes lack enough ATP synthase for thermogenesis. Congrats to Jakub Bunk! @mcgillgci.bsky.social Full paper: rdcu.be/egoV7

Congratulations, Yiyi! 🎉 We find that high-fat diet rapidly reduces Notch signaling in the brain, affecting glucose uptake and insulin sensitivity. Our study also highlights the role of caveolae in blood-brain barrier permeability and insulin transport: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

A beautiful article about writing, which also advocates against the use of LLM when learning academic writing www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Online now: RBM43 controls PGC1α translation and a PGC1α-STING signaling axis

Online now: Ergothioneine controls mitochondrial function and exercise performance via direct activation of MPST

A combination of #exercise physiology, molecular biology & biochemistry studies identifies the Ergothioneine-3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase axis as a molecular mechanism for regulating mitochondrial function and #exercise performance @cp-cellmetabolism.bsky.social www.cell.com/cell-metabol...

Our paper showing that ergothioneine controls mitochondrial function and exercise performance via direct activation of MPST is now published @cp-cellmetabolism.bsky.social Thanks to everyone involved! www.cell.com/cell-metabol...

Very happy to share that my research group has launched at the German Diabetes Center (DDZ) in Düsseldorf! We're looking for a PhD student to study the effects of inter-tissue communication on energy balance and metabolic health. Interested? Get in touch! ddz.de/en/job/docto...

With two complete starter packs (in my profile), here is a 3rd one for the ever-growing metabolism community. Please contact me if you are working (prerequisite) on metabolism and want to be included here; there is still some space. I will keep updating it. go.bsky.app/7Uwa6fb

Very excited to start 2025 sharing our latest work @ppuigserverb.bsky.social published in @naturecellbiology.bsky.social! We have shown that the cytosolic chaperone PPID/CYP40 inserts TOM70, connecting chaperones and mitochondrial protein biogenesis to the development of chronic metabolic disorders

Thrilled to share our new paper @Chouchani Lab in Cell; what a great way to end this year! We establish a deep mapping of the zinc-binding human cysteine proteome (ZnCPT) and discover glutathione reductase as zinc-targetable cancer vulnerability. www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

One of the biggest questions we get is when will our journals be here. We thank you for your patience. You can now follow our journals with this starter pack!

📢We're recruiting📢 Our lab at the University of Lausanne is looking for a postdoctoral associate to study #nucleotide metabolism in physiology and cancer in vivo! Please share #uridine #cancermetabolism #immunometabolism @unil.bsky.social 🔗(PDF): www.jourdainlab.org/wp-content/u...

11/ Bruna Martins Garcia thought a good PhD student had to be fully independent until writing in a new language began hindering her opportunities. She told #SparksOfChange how she took the leap and started her own writing club, and how you can do the same! https://buff.ly/3CWk823

I'm thrilled to co-organize the inaugural #AdiposeBiology conference with Jacqueline Beaudry, Hoon-Ki Sung, and @sablesys.bsky.social! 📍Montreal, Canada 📅 August 19-20, 2025 Registration opens Jan 1, 2025. Mor info in the coming weeks. Hope to see you there! @AdiposeBiology #AdiposeBiology2025

I have curated a second "metabolism" starter pack, as the first quickly got full. Please have a look, and I am happy to add others (sorry for those who may appear in both): go.bsky.app/CH1MctZ
