    Mutant p53 sustains serine-glycine synthesis and essential amino acids intake promoting breast cancer growth

    Reprogramming of amino acid metabolism, sustained by oncogenic signaling, is crucial for cancer cell survival under nutrient limitation. Here we discovered that missense mutant p53 oncoproteins stimulate de no...

    DNA damage and transcription stress cause ATP-mediated redesign of metabolism and potentiation of anti-oxidant buffering

    Accumulation of DNA lesions causing transcription stress is associated with natural and accelerated aging and culminates with profound metabolic alterations. Our understanding of the mechanisms governing metab...

    Myeloid apolipoprotein E controls dendritic cell antigen presentation and T cell activation

    Cholesterol homeostasis has a pivotal function in regulating immune cells. Here we show that apolipoprotein E (apoE) deficiency leads to the accumulation of cholesterol in the cell membrane of dendritic cells ...

    HDAC3 is a molecular brake of the metabolic switch supporting white adipose tissue browning

    White adipose tissue (WAT) can undergo a phenotypic switch, known as browning, in response to environmental stimuli such as cold. Post-translational modifications of histones have been shown to regulate cellul...

    The ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 regulates phosphoantigen release and Vγ9Vδ2 T cell activation by dendritic cells

    Vγ9Vδ2 T cells are activated by phosphoantigens, such as isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP), which is generated in the mevalonate pathway of antigen-presenting cells. IPP is released in the extracellular microenv...

    Liver ERα regulates AgRP neuronal activity in the arcuate nucleus of female mice

    Recent work revealed the major role played by liver Estrogen Receptor α (ERα) in the regulation of metabolic and reproductive functions. By using mutant mice with liver-specific ablation of Erα, we here demonstra...

    The nuclear receptor LXR is a glucose sensor

    The liver has a central role in glucose homeostasis, as it has the distinctive ability to produce and consume glucose1. On feeding, glucose influx triggers gene expression changes in hepatocytes to suppress endog...
