Excited to share a new paper from my PhD work along with @shaneOCarroll4 from the @laoneill111 lab on how the metabolite itaconate regulates IFN, out today in @NatMetabolism (nature.com/articles/s42255-0…) (1/n)

Thrilled to share that my main postdoctoral project in Josh Rabinowitz’s lab is out today at @CellCellPress! We found an unexpected, diet- and microbiota-dependent mechanism that affects the anticancer activity of PI3K inhibitors. Thread below👇

Happy to share the final version of this work where we incorporated isotope labeled CO2 data into mass spec-based flux analysis framework to build a whole-body flux model of energy metabolism. Full article access here: authors.elsevier.com/a/1keM5… @yuanbogeneral
Happy to share a preprint on our effort of building whole-body flux models. We integrated the key organismal metabolic parameter CO2 production rate and also its isotope labeling into the in vivo isotope tracing framework.

Lactate elevations are a hallmark of human disease, but the mechanisms regulating lactate levels remain poorly understood. Today in @Cell_Metabolism, we uncover key mechanisms of lactate homeostasis. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Today in @CellCellPress we report a new pathway of ketone metabolism. This BHB shunt generates an orphan family of anorexigenic ketone metabolites that are chemical cousins of exercise-inducible Lac-Phe. Congratulations @mariadolores_mg @Stanford_ChEMH cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092…

Big congrats to Shane O’Carroll and Christian Peace who led this study in our lab- a metabolite called Itaconate already known to be anti- inflammatory also drives anti-viral interferons via blocking the enzyme SDH. Funded by the ERC and Research Ireland tcd.ie/news_events/articles/…

#ImmunometabolismPower! @ChristianGPeace @shaneOCarroll4 @laoneill111 &co show @NatMetabolism that itaconate drives type I #interferons by inhibiting SDH & driving #mitochondrial RNA release via VDAC1, thus activating RIG-I/MDA5! nature.com/articles/s42255-0…
