Iron is an essential element for several cellular processes and recent evidence highlighted its role in regulating the function of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). When in excess it reduces quiescence and self-renewal, however, whether and how iron influences HSC metabolism is still unknown. Here, w...

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells rely on phospho-signaling pathways to gain unlimited proliferation potential. Here, we used domain-focused CRISPR screening to identify the nuclear phosphatase SCP4 as a dependency in AML, yet this enzyme is dispensable in normal hematopoietic progenitor cells. Usi...

Gram-negative bacteria in the order Rickettsiales are obligate intracellular parasites that cause human diseases such typhus and spotted fever. They have evolved a dependence on essential nutrients and metabolites from the host cell as a consequence of extensive genome streamlining. However, it rema...

Succinate is implicated in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and other inflammatory diseases via its receptor, G protein-coupled receptor 91 (GPR91). Despite its therapeutic potential, conflicting reports on its inflammatory roles have hindered GPR91-targeted treatm...

Lysosomes are key cellular organelles that metabolize extra- and intra-cellular substrates. Alterations in lysosomal metabolism are implicated in aging-associated metabolic and neurodegenerative diseases. However, how lysosomal metabolism actively coordinates the metabolic and nervous systems to ...

Cells use glycolytic intermediates for anabolism e.g., via the serine synthesis and pentose phosphate pathways. However, we still understand poorly how these metabolic pathways contribute to skeletal muscle cell biomass generation. The first aim of this study was therefore to identify enzymes tha...

Breast cancer metastasis occurs via blood and lymphatic vessels. Breast cancer cells 'educate' lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) to support tumor vascularization and growth. However, despite known metabolic alterations in breast cancer, it remains unclear how lymphatic endothelial cell metabolis...

The islet in type 2 diabetes (T2D) is characterized by amyloid deposits derived from islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP), a protein co-expressed with insulin by β-cells. In common with amyloidogenic proteins implicated in neurodegeneration, human IAPP (hIAPP) forms membrane permeant toxic oligomers imp...

The mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) integrates cellular nutrient signaling and hormonal cues to control metabolism. We have previously shown that constitutive nutrient signaling to mTORC1 by means of genetic activation of RagA (RagAGTP) in mice resulted in a fatal energetic crisis...

In many multicellular organisms, a group of cells called organizers plays critical roles by sending signals to adjacent cells and controlling patterning events such as embryogenesis and tissue morphogenesis. Recent studies suggest that these organizers or inductive cells facilitate the downstream...
