Emerging insights into amino acid metabolism in the heart: implications for cardiovascular diseases and therapeutic targeting

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
As a metabolically versatile organ, the heart is capable of generating energy from a wide range of substrates. Although fatty acid and glucose metabolism in the heart have been extensively studied, the contribution of amino acid metabolism to cardiac physiology and disease is gaining increasing attention.

Rethinking diabetic retinopathy: Homeostatic mechanisms for retinal clearance

Diabetic Medicine, EarlyView.
In the healthy retina, balanced production and clearance of metabolic waste and fluid maintain retinal homeostasis and normal visual function. Diabetes disrupts this balance, increasing the accumulation of metabolic waste products, including advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and advanced lipoxidation end products (ALEs), while impairing waste and ...

Autophagy Regulates Foxo1 Protein Abundance to Control Hepatic Glucose Production in Glucagon Signalling

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim During fasting, the liver undergoes coordinated metabolic adaptations to maintain systemic energy homeostasis. These adaptations are driven in part by glucagon, which promotes hepatic glucose production (HGP) and fatty acid oxidation (FAO) through mechanisms involving the transcription factor Foxo1.

Circadian rhythms of metabolite abundance in Drosophila are largely driven by time of feeding

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Circadian clocks exist in the brain and peripheral tissues such as the Drosophila fat body. Single‐nuclei transcriptomics reveal that the fat body clock generates time‐of‐day differences in metabolic gene transcription, which may also be indirectly controlled by brain clocks.

CD36‐mediated lipid rewiring in the metabolic adaptation of tumour ecosystems

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Nutrient deprivation drives a lipid‐centric shift in tumour metabolic symbiosis and signalling network. CD36 functions as a bidirectional bridge, transferring fatty acids from stromal donors (adipocytes, CAFs) to the ecosystem tumour‐ and microenvironment‐dependently.

Tankyrase‐2 regulates adipocyte differentiation through AMPK/mTOR signaling

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Tankyrase 2 (TNKS2), a PARP family member, underpins adipocyte differentiation. TNKS2 controls LKB1 protein level, and consequently, the activity of the mTOR/AMPK system and adipocyte differentiation through a layered process. Pharmacological inhibition of TNKS2 leaves other PARPs and DNA repair active and therefore represents a novel target in ...

GSK3α‐mediated regulation of the RNA demethylase fat mass and obesity‐associated protein (FTO) during murine spermatogenesis

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
FTO regulates mRNA stability and translational efficiency through its m6A‐demethylation activity. GSK3 functions as an upstream regulator of FTO, leading to its inhibition via phosphorylation. In male germ cells, FTO activity is kept in check by GSK3α.

A guide to host genetic determinants of female microbiome composition across distinct anatomical niches

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Host genetic variation in immune regulation and cell signalling genes was associated with microbiome composition across vaginal, gut, oral and skin sites, while associations involving metabolic function, epithelial barrier integrity and hormonal processes were more site‐specific. Overall, our findings indicate that host genetic variation contributes to
