Neurons run on fat.
Our Commentary in npj Metabolic Health and Disease.
If neurons take up, store and oxidise fatty acids, what prevents lipotoxicity? Possibly the coupling of uptake and lipolysis to mitochondrial import itself.

Excited to have contributed to this work!
At @MattWattUnimelb lab, we tested the efficacy of this compounds using the human precision-cut liver slices in collaboration with surgeons at Austin Hospital.

@MattWattUnimelb@ReneaTaylor1@Vervoort_Lab If you are interested in cancer metabolism, CRISPR screening, lipid metabolism, and mevalonate-cholesterol metabolism, please have a read!
Excited to share that the final research chapter of my thesis is now published!
Our study explored which aspects of lipid metabolism are required for prostate cancer. The findings offer intriguing insights and many unanswered questions.

Lots of cool findings including work from @MattWattUnimelb on fatty acid metabolism in prostate cancer https://t.co/vgDaqORvQf
There are many interesting observations that I am happy to discuss; feel free to connect! Finally, thanks to @MattWattUnimelb@ReneaTaylor1 and our collaborators @DrKristinBrown and many others!
We performed ex vivo 14C and 13C tracing experiments of prostate cancer PDXs. We then leveraged the substrate utilisation profile to assess metabolic inhibitor sensitivities, a personalised medicine approach, as discussed in our previous review (https://t.co/4AnBOR9gpK).
