I'm excited to present a small method project of mine from @RutterLab! Here we designed a dual-purification system to isolate mitochondrial subpopulations based on their proximity to membranous organelles. All constructs will be available on Addgene soon!

Just when you thought that everything was known about the regulation of mTORC1 activity and its lysosomal presence, my dear friend @acharyaish comes to shake the field. I'm so proud of you! 💡❤️

[Aishwarya Acharya @acharyaish]

So delighted that my first ever first author paper is now online @MolecularCell ! 🥳

🪔We reveal a mechanism that enables lysosomal mTORC1 to decide: ‘should I stay or should I go?’

Check it out here👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

💥New paper from our group @MolecularCell! 🎃

One-woman show by the amazing Aish Acharya @acharyaish, revealing how active #mTORC1 sets itself free from #lysosomes!

@DemetriadesLab @MolecularCell @acharyaish Congratulations Aish and Costas!

[Álvaro N. @narbonaperez]

@DemetriadesLab @biorxivpreprint @NatureCellBio Many congrats @DemetriadesLab @stephalcantara @DAngelidaki, great work!

[Álvaro N. @narbonaperez]

Really awesome to see this one out as a preprint: In the heart, lactate is directly uptaken into mitochondria via MCT1 for its oxidation! 🫀⚡
Congrats @molecularpepsi @joevisker @jn_velascosilva and beyond. So grateful for being part of it.
Check it out! ⬇️

[Rutter Lab @RutterLab]

Paper alert!!! 🚨🔥 Mitochondrial lactate in the heart!? Say what!? Congratulations to @molecularpepsi, @joevisker and @jn_velascosilva on an amazing collaboration with the @gsducker and @StavrosDrakos labs. Check out the thread below! @HHMINEWS @UofUBiochem @NEH_CVRTI @UofUDMRC

[Ahmad A. Cluntun @molecularpepsi]

🚨Thrilled to share our new preprint from my postdoc work in the @RutterLab! The latest outcome of our close collaboration with @gsducker and @StavrosDrakos labs, where we uncovered something big: mitochondria directly import lactate as fuel in the heart!

ERC Starting Grant for Mito-FerroQuest – Dr. Soni Deshwal🌟

@ERC_Research has awarded the project Mito-FerroQuest with an #ERC Starting Grant.

🔎What is #Mito-FerroQuest about?
👇Watch the video👇

👉 Dr. Soni Deshwal explains how Mito-FerroQuest is unraveling mitochondrial defense against #CellDeath.

💡 Mitochondria are the central hubs of cellular metabolism, dynamically communicating with other cell compartments to ensure proper function.

With the project Mito-FerroQuest Dr. Soni Deshwal aims to explore and uncover the mitochondrial strategies that prevent #ferroptosis, paving the way for potential therapeutic targets in diseases involving impaired mitochondrial function, such as neurodegenerative disorders and #LeighSyndrome.

🥳🚨Preprint Alert!🚨🥳
Excited to release this #preprint @biorxiv_cellbio led by our postdoc Sri @Sri_chandragiri!! We addressed the question "how #mitochondria adapt to hypoxia" and identified the AFG3L2 protease as a key player! Congratulations Sri🎉😁!

Happy to share that part of my postdoc work is online now. We show that pyruvate metabolism modulates cellular redox balance to regulate size and function cells. @RutterLab @UofUBiochem @HHMINEWS @AHAScience https://t.co/TbKfaejmDE
