Excited to share my postdoc work @olzmannlab.bsky.social! We found lipid droplets, the cell’s lipid storage depots, are subject to oxidative damage and are protected by FSP1. Loss of FSP1 triggers droplet peroxidation and cell death, revealing a new layer of lipid quality control!

Excited to share our study out in @natcellbio.nature.com! Led by @mikelangelipid.bsky.social, we identify the first #LipidDroplet lipid quality control pathway: LD-localized FSP1 protects stored lipids from oxidative damage and prevents LD-initiated #ferroptosis.

🚨Preprint alert 🚨

We identify riboflavin (vitamin B₂) as a key modulator of ferroptosis sensitivity via stabilizing FSP1 & recycling lipid-soluble antioxidants.

Happy to finally share my last contribution of my PhD work on protein carbonylation. These diverse and low abundant non-enzymatic PTMs have strong implications in protein structure. Here we show how we managed to consistently detect them in serum of 68 individuals.

Happy to share our latest #Lipidomics results: Together with Patricia Prabutzki & @fedorovalab.bsky.social we looked at lipidome remodeling along development of fibro-calcific aortic valve disease. Turns out, it is quite different in male & female patients!

Job alert 🧪 ‼️ Hi #teammassspec: In our #RTG2467 @unihalle.bsky.social we have a job opening for a PhD student in my group! 🎉 If you want to do cool stuff in cross-linking mass spectrometry of the tumor suppressor p53, please take a look:

Please RT!

Exciting times indeed! With so many new tools entering the field, we can hope to find the answers to many questions in lipid cell biology! Was happy to contribute to this viewpoint.

It’s incredibly hard to study lipids in biological membranes on the nanoscale. You need near-perfect information on both membrane ultrastructure and lipid density, which usually isn’t attainable. Lipid-CLEM brought to you by @mathilda95.bsky.social changes that.

Ever wondered how #mitochondria fragmentation comes about during #ferroptosis ? Read our new paper on Drp1-mediated promotion of ferroptotic #celldeath. Great @cecad.bsky.social collaboration with Ana Garcia Saez!

I am excited to report the preprint of my postdoc work in the @olzmannlab.bsky.social! We have discovered the first lipid droplet quality control pathway with broad implications for lipid physiology and diseases associated with LD accumulation and oxidative stress! #lipidtime
