Congratulations to @KaiSun and colleagues on this outstanding @CellReports paper! A compelling study revealing how myeloid MMP14 links extracellular matrix remodeling, endotrophin generation, inflammation, and metabolic dysfunction in obesity. An important advance in immunometabolism. Cell Rep. 2026 Jul 9;45(7):117681.

Congratulations to the @LipedemaFdn on the publication of this outstanding collaborative effort! A shared research framework will help move the lipedema field forward through better, more comparable science. Well done to everyone involved! 🎉 Front Glob Womens Health . 2026 Jun 24:7:1833913
Congratulations to Rodrigo Fernandez-Verdejo and Eric Ravussin for their elegant endotrophin measurements during acute weight gain and weight loss. That makes endotrophin a dynamic indicator of adipose tissue remodeling rather than simply a marker of obesity. It also suggests that therapies targeting endotrophin could complement weight-loss approaches by directly addressing the harmful biological consequences of dysfunctional fat tissue.

Congratulations to Clair Crewe for her work published in Nature Communications on the remarkable observation that adipocytes lacking the gene encoding SMPD3 can replenish SMPD3 mRNA by signaling to surrounding immune cell-like preadipocytes to release EVs that carry SMPD3 mRNA! A remarkable observation!
