Research in mice shows Ozempic causes muscle weakness despite only small changes in muscle mass. Need more research to understand implications for people via @ksl5tv.bsky.social

In our second kidney paper out from our lab this week, Dr. Stephen Decker @decker-st.bsky.social describes a novel and elegant bioenergetic platform to successfully resolve kidney segments with highly differential response to nephropathy.
A Platform for Mitochondrial Profiling in Enriched Kidney Segments Under Thermodynamic Control
Mitochondrial function varies widely across kidney nephron segments, yet conventional approaches lack the resolution and control needed to assess cell-type-specific bioenergetics in situ. We present a...

A new paper from Precious Opurum (PhD candidate) demonstrates for the first time in mice that a sedentary behaviour may contribute to the development of chronic kidney disease.

How Hungry Fat Cells Could Someday Starve Cancer to Death
"Scientists transformed energy-storing white fat cells into calorie-burning ‘beige’ fat. Once implanted, they outcompeted tumors for resources, beating back five different types of cancer in lab experiments."
