Brown fat is a cool system for learning new about mitochondria. Choline is an important nutrient, and its metabolism involves import into the mitochondrial matrix. How does Choline get there? Check out our new paper by Tony Verkerke and colleagues! cell.com/cell-metabolis…
Today in @nature, we discover a new enzyme in mammalian taurine metabolism- and uncover a chemical connection between diet, genetics, and body weight. Congrats Wei Wei (魏伟) Sarafan ChEM-H Stanford Pathology Michael Fischbach Cholsoon Jang SvenssonLab Lingyin Li Lab nature.com/articles/s4158…
The endothelin system is traditionally known for regulating vasoconstriction/dilation. Our new paper in Nature Communications shows EDN3-EDNRB induces the browning of human white adipocytes via cAMP-EPAC1-ERK activation. shorturl.at/Os6ET Chih-Hao Wang, Tadataka Tsuji, Farnaz Shamsi
