Extremely happy to see this out in @embojournal.org! Here we provide a guide on how to accurately determine mitochondrial membrane potential. Thanks to @marcliesa.bsky.social for the opportunity and to everyone involved! We hope you find it useful!

A new carrier-drug conjugate fuses a TGR5-targeting compound for type 2 #diabetes to silicon particles to limit intestinal absorption, enabling safe and extended blood sugar control in mice and pigs without typical systemic toxicity. #ScienceTranslationalMedicine https://scim.ag/48opIrf
Intestinal TGR5-targeted carrier-drug conjugate improves glycemic control in mice and pigs
A nonabsorbable, intestinal TGR5-targeted conjugate was designed to improve glycemic control while reducing systemic toxicity in mice and pigs.

A new #ScienceImmunology study finds that mice and humans have pancreatic islet-resident macrophages with elevated antioxidant profiles, which could shield β cells from oxidative stress. https://scim.ag/49cqs3M
An islet-resident macrophage antioxidant program preserves β cell physiology
SLC7A11 licenses metabolic and antioxidant activities in islet macrophages, supporting β cell insulin secretion and redox homeostasis.
