Blood cancers, such as leukaemia, are challenging to treat. At @wakeforestmed in the US, Dr Kelsey Fisher-Wellman @KFW_Lab is investigating how mitochondria in cancerous cells differ from those in healthy cells. https://t.co/clqTaPPmVa

New publication from our group. We examine the primary functional consequences of mtDNA mutations across major organ systems. Spoiler: the cumulative mutational burden broadly phenocopies a complex I deficiency. https://t.co/rvTckbmk1Z

Honored to be listed in Clarivate’s top 1% of cited scientists. I know rankings and citation metrics raise valid concerns about how we evaluate science… but I still feel proud of the work my team and collaborators have done together 💪🏼 #GoBlue 〽️

[Kelsey Fisher-Wellman, PhD @KFW_Lab]

Big shoutout to the folks over at @FUTURUMCareers for highlighting our work exploring the role of the mitochondria in blood cancers. It was an absolute pleasure to work with such a great team!

This was a labor of love requiring lots of teamwork over years, repeating in 3 locations! Thanks to all the lab over the years, giving their time generously to this team project, & our wonderful collaborators. The source of fat matters for anti-tumor immunity 🐄🐖🧈🌴🫒🥥

GDF15 is the best biomarker of energetic stress and energy resistance (éR)

New paper showing that GDF15 is on average elevated people with diagnoses of schizophrenia (+61%), bipolar disease (+56%), and major depressive disorder (+82%)

Consistent with the notion that mental health disorders are energetic disorders @ChrisPalmerMD

📢New @KFW_Lab paper out!
AML mitochondria remain unperturbed & phenotypically stable under diverse nutrient conditions. And rather than specific nutrients or physiological relevance, AML cell proliferation is influenced by the complete nutrient profile
