New in @jclinicalinvest
We identified GLP-1 receptor therapy as a promising Bardet-Biedl Syndrome #BBS treatment.
🔬 We uncover new mechanisms driving metabolic dysfunction in BBS & point to new therapy targets.

A late update on our recent pub that AgRP neurons do not contribute to DIO or GLP-1R agonism based weight reduction but essential for body temp during nutrient insufficiency, echoing @jflier's earlier finding that leptin is rather a fasting hormone: https://t.co/8txoGMZw4V

My lab at @Stanford is looking to hire postdocs for multiple projects on cancer biology and therapeutics. Our recent work has uncovered some truly remarkable mechanisms for cytotoxic small molecules and we're looking to build on this research. If interested, see below:

[Alejandro Aballay, PhD @aaballay1]

Students, postdocs, and faculty: Exciting funding opportunities are on the horizon from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI).

This fall, HHMI will launch programs supporting:

- Faculty with up to $10M over 10 years, which includes salary, benefits, and research support.
- Postdocs with up to 2 years of salary and research support, facilitating a transition to independent funding.
- PhD students with a $50,000 annual stipend for up to 3 years, along with additional institutional and postdoctoral funding opportunities.

When we discovered irisin in 2012 (Bostrom et al), we described its actions in terms of the browning of the white fat and anti-diabetic effects. Here, in collaboration with the Mathis lab, we re-examine this in mechanistic detail. https://t.co/qDVrwgiGuM

GLP-1 receptor agonists are increasingly used to treat type 2 diabetes and obesity, and trials have shown reductions in cardiovascular risk and slowing of kidney failure. Adverse events are mostly gastrointestinal.
