Journal ArticleDOI

Restoration of metabolic health by decreased consumption of branched-chain amino acids.

TL;DR: It is shown that a reduced BCAA diet promotes rapid fat mass loss without calorie restriction in obese mice, and it is suggested that dietary protein quality (i.e. the precise macronutrient composition of dietary protein) may impact the effectiveness of weight loss diets.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pyruvate Kinase Controls Signal Strength in the Insulin Secretory Pathway

TL;DR: It is shown that pyruvate kinase (PK) underlies β cell sensing of both glycolytic and mitochondrial fuels and suggests a potential therapeutic route for diabetes based on PK activation that would not be predicted by the current consensus single-state model of β cell function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pancreatic β-Cells From Mice Offset Age-Associated Mitochondrial Deficiency With Reduced KATP Channel Activity.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated how mice but not humans are able to successfully compensate for age-associated metabolic dysfunction by adjusting β-cell glucose sensitivity and highlight an essential mechanism for ensuring the maintenance of insulin secretion.

Observation of an α-synuclein liquid droplet state and its maturation into Lewy body-like assemblies

TL;DR: It is shown that α-synuclein undergoes liquid-liquid phase separation by forming a liquid droplet state, which converts into an amyloid-rich hydrogel, and that this maturation process towards the amyloids state is delayed in the presence of model synaptic vesicles in vitro.
