Amazing work 👏🏻! I am yet to digest it all but some really interesting findings and revelations regarding interindividual variations in insulin responsiveness and phosphosites associated with insulin sensitivity!
Personalized molecular signatures of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.

Great collaboration with @annakrook.bsky.social and @adeshmukh.bsky.social

A comprehensive clinically focused study of insulin signaling in skeletal muscle. 💪

New study from Liu and Wei et al. (Huazhong University of Science and Technology) shows how RAB-10 and EHBP-1 proteins form a molecular "capture system" in epithelial cells. This newly discovered mechanism controls how vital cargo moves through exocytic compartments. https://buff.ly/3QuXAZQ
