To our surprise, the carnitine biosynthesis pathway influences the optimal efficacy of GLP1-based anti-obesity therapies! You can see the full MS here until it lasts: https://t.co/UNqruKHvVa.

Our body (cells) have fuel preference, e.g., burning fat vs. carbohydrates, which depends on the environment and nutritional states. How do cells decide which fuels to use?  Our new study found that carnitine biosynthesis is crucial for fuel switching https://t.co/YgqmN2kzjn

@TVerkerke Highly recommended!!

[Tony Verkerke @TVerkerke]

The Verkerke lab is hiring at all levels. We apply metabolic and bioenergetic techniques to investigate how pathways are rewired in pathophysiology. Experience in bioenergetics,cancer metabolism, metabolomics, molecular biology is a bonus. Email [email protected] to apply!

@TVerkerke @UMN_IBP @KatsuFunai Congratulations!!!! We are so proud of you!!!

[Tony Verkerke @TVerkerke]

I’m thrilled to share that I’ve started my lab at @UMN_IBP! The lab will study bioenergetic consequences of choline metabolism. I am incredibly grateful to have had amazing mentors in @KajimuraLab @KatsuFunai, thank you!
