Antibody-based extracellular targeted protein degraders that destroy disease-linked proteins in cancer and autoimmunity are advancing in the clinic. Find out more in this news story in our May issue https://t.co/aOTx11x35y
New research in Science supports the idea that adult neurogenesis occurs in the human hippocampus, which has been one of the most debated issues in neuroscience.

Delighted to share our latest, expertly led by @KatlynGabriel_ and @ChoahK:
FAF2 is a bifunctional regulator of peroxisomal homeostasis and saturated lipid responses
Impactful work with therapeutic potential by our @GrekaLab team at @broadinstitute!

@ScienceMagazine Astrocytes were long dismissed as mere 'brain glue' until Volterra's 1994 discovery of their calcium signaling. Now we know these star-shaped cells orchestrate neural circuits like conductors in a biological symphony. Evolution preserved this across 500M years.
Three new papers in Science report that astrocytes are indispensable for neuromodulatory signaling across diverse neural circuits, behavioral contexts, and species.

“Metabolism” rules biology…
including your appetite, satiety, and how many calories you burn.
Anyone who thinks these are unrelated to metabolism clearly doesn’t understand metabolism.
Flushing out misfolded uromodulin as a treatment concept for kidney proteinopathies: https://t.co/mjQjT7Zewm
ASCI member @AnnaGreka & team @harvardmed restored uromodulin localization in models of autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease using a TMED-targeting small molecule.
Saying that diet doesn’t play a role in “serious” mental illness is like saying diet doesn’t play a role in deaths from heart disease.
The brain is an organ…
just like the heart.
When the brain malfunctions, what do you think the symptoms are?
Delighted to share our latest @GrekaLab story in collaboration with @WuLabHarvard on the molecular basis of TMED9 cargo receptor oligomerization and entrapment of misfolded cargo in the early secretory pathway. @broadinstitute@harvardmed@MassGenBrigham

Studies in mice suggest that strategies to enhance kidney TREM2 high macrophages may provide therapeutic benefits for DKD #diabetes#kidneydisease@CellReports https://t.co/4hc6i189Wr
Studies in rats and mice sometimes reveal increased metabolic activity of adipose tissue, beiging, browning and ⬆️ energy expenditure with GLP-1RAs. Studies in humans do not. #weightloss#obesity
