@JCI_insight Thank you for highlighting our work on peroxisomes and pancreatic β-cell function @Collier_Lab @PBRCNews.

A sweet take on peroxisomes: https://t.co/Ya5IDWJQrM

J. Jason Collier @Collier_Lab Susan J. Burke @Burke_Lab & team @PBRCNews discover small cellular structures called peroxisomes are essential for insulin-producing cells to work properly and without them, insulin release and cell maturity become impaired.

The image represents reduced colocalization of Acox1(green) and PMP70 (red) in β cells from mice with pancreas-specific deletion of Pex5 compared with WT; isulin (blue).

On Friday, our #PBRCfam gathered to celebrate the 2023 Publication of the Year Award. Held to spotlight those publications that move the research field forward and contribute to the collective bank of knowledge, the team of researchers behind the selected publication, "FGF21 is required for protein restrictions to extend lifespan and improve metabolic health in male mice" published in Nature Communications, received $10,000 and a framed copy of the publication's front page. #ScholarshipFirst
