Energy metabolism is highly interdependent with adaptive cell migration in vivo. Mechanical confinement is a critical physical cue that induces switchable migration modes of the mesenchymal-to-amoeboid transition (MAT). However, the energy states in distinct migration modes, especially a...
Reduced estrogen action is associated with obesity and insulin resistance. However, the cell and tissue-specific actions of estradiol in maintaining metabolic health remain inadequately understood, especially in men. We observed that skeletal muscle ESR1/Esr1 (encodes estrogen receptor α) is posi...
Naïve human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) that resemble the pre-implantation epiblasts are fueled by a combination of aerobic glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation, but their mitochondrial regulators are poorly understood. Here we report that, proline dehydrogenase (PRODH), a mitochondria-local...
