Skeletal muscle aging is associated with a decrease in expression of the lactate receptor GPR81. Treating senescent myoblasts in vitro and progeric mice in vivo with GPR81 agonist decreases intramyocellular lipid accumulation and reverses hallmarks of aging. ABSTRACT Skeletal muscle aging is associated with increased lipid accumulation, or myosteatosis,

Identification of drug repurposing candidates for the treatment of polycystic kidney disease
Background and Purpose Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a leading cause of end‐stage renal disease with limited treatment options. Drug repurposing offers a promising strategy to find effective treatments. Experimental Approach We identified birinapant, bardoxolone methyl and salicylic acid as repurposing candidates for ADPKD and

Lysine l‐Lactylation: Bridging Metabolism, Chromatin and Disease
Enzymatic regulation of KL‐la. The enzymatic regulation of KL‐la involves two distinct pathways for L‐lactate accumulation: intracellular production through glycolysis‐derived pyruvate conversion by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) or direct cellular uptake via monocarboxylate transporters (MCTs). These L‐lactate pools fuel two distinct lactylation pathways—
