📢 Check out this brand new @natcellbio.nature.com publication from our #CRC1678 project leaders Thorsten Hoppe and @riemerlab.bsky.social on how the amino acid Leucine links nutrient sensing to mitochondrial protein homeostasis and adaption of energy production. Congratulations! 🥳
How Leucine boosts energy production! 🚀
A research team around Professor Dr Thorsten Hoppe at @cecad.bsky.social has discovered how the amino acid Leucine from food increases cell energy and opens up new possibilities for treating metabolic diseases. 🌟

📢 Check out this new paper by our #CRC1678 members @bjornschumacher.bsky.social, @meyerdh.bsky.social and Walter Sandt: Age Deceleration and Reversal Gene Patterns in Dauer Diapause! Nature shows us how aging can slow—and even reverse—at the whole-organism level.
🚀 🚀 🚀 Our latest paper is out now: Age Deceleration and Reversal Gene Patterns in Dauer Diapause. We can learn from nature how aging of a whole organism with completely differentiated tissues can be slowed and how that organism can be completely rejuvenated.
