new review alert❗️
thought your neighborhood stress response pathway (ISR) only dealt in stress adaptation? well, maybe so. but many cells are apparently quite “stressed out” - even healthy ones.

Closing out the year with a new pre-print! Here, we show that the stress response factor Atf4 is more abundant in female vs male fat (likely directly Doublesex-regulated). This dimorphism renders females more resilient to starvation-induced death. Lots of follow-up work to come!
