How to tell if you’ve fallen for propaganda: you think the richest country in the world can’t afford universal healthcare while 80 other countries can.

Beyond MEPAN: the role of MECR in immune metabolism. Thank you to Dr. KayLee Steiner for illuminating more about the importance of MECR and mtFAS to human health. @steinerkaylee

Hello everyone,
the new season of MITOtalks is ready to roll, and we have some awesome MITOscience waiting.

[UDN @UDNconnect]

Check out the most recent UDN publication!

Key takeaway: #TUBB4B variants identified were found to disrupt centriole and cilium biogenesis in primary ciliary dyskinesia, affecting microtubule dynamics and enabling classification of ciliopathies.

Congrats to @steinerkaylee with @YoungArissa on their new work exploring lipid pathways in T cells--mitochondrial fatty acid synthesis & Mecr control activated T cell respiration and sensitivity to ferroptosis

Important work from @steinerkaylee with new findings about MECR and mtFAS roles in immunity; corroborates @DebdeepDutta21 paper showing iron dysregulation in MECR-deficient cells

[KayLee Steiner, PhD @steinerkaylee]

My first author paper from my thesis work has been uploaded to BioRxiv! We identified Mecr as important for T cell fitness in in vivo CRISPR screens. I have further worked with Mecr and am the first to show it regulates T cell function and metabolism.

I’m still recruiting for a research assistant position at UAB.

Sadly, it turns out, I can’t sponsor a visa for those positions, but if you’re authorized to work in the US and and would like to learn about organoids, iPSCs, and neurodegenerative diseases reach out!
