Pleased to share our @cp-cellmetabolism.bsky.social forum on why we think standard cell culture practices deserve more consideration. How we culture cells has implications for cell metabolism & beyond! With

Research published today in @cp-cellrepmed.bsky.social shows that #insulin and #glucagon play a crucial role in regulating levels of LEAP2 - a newly discovered hormone with promise for treating cardiometabolic disease.

🔬 Our current approach to dividing muscle fibers into separate types may need to be revised following new research in Nature Communications by a team of scientists, including AssocProf Atul Deshmukh.

Our new paper from @clemmensenc.bsky.social @metabolcenter.bsky.social is available online! I briefly summarize here our findings on the effects of short-term overfeeding in mice! We show real time energy expenditure data during and after overfeeding! diabetesjournals.org/diabetes/art... 🧵 (1/n)
Time-resolved effects of short-term overfeeding on energy balance in mice
To curb the obesity epidemic, it is imperative that we improve our understanding of the mechanisms controlling fat mass and body weight regulation. While g

Curious about muscle metabolism? 🚴‍♂️ We reveal PanK4 as a conserved exercise target in muscle! 💪 PanK4 regulates lipid & glucose use likely via acetyl-CoA. We think PanK4 belongs alongside Akt, mTOR, AMPK, Rac1 & more as a key player in muscle energy homeostasis. #Metabolism #MyoBlue
Pantothenate kinase 4 controls skeletal muscle substrate metabolism - Nature Communications
Here, Miranda-Cervantes et al. identified pantothenate kinase 4 (PanK4) as a key regulator of muscle metabolism. Deleting PanK4 impairs fatty acid oxidation and glucose uptake, leading to glucose into...
