In intestinal organoids, SCD inhibition disrupts lipid metabolism, elevates ER stress, and reduces proliferation, effects rescued by oleic acid. In vivo, Scd1/2 loss may be compensated by dietary lipids, but under nutrient stress or DSS-induced injury, regenerative capacity can become compromised.

Excited to share new work led by outstanding former grad student Kübra Akkaya! We show that Stearoyl-CoA Desaturases (SCDs) regulate intestinal stem and progenitor cell proliferation by balancing fatty acids, sustaining epithelial homeostasis and regeneration.

excited to share a new preprint from our lab! led by the outstanding (& newly minted PhD) @thebiokimist.bsky.social we first uncover a basis for conditional HK2 essentiality in HPLM - leveraging this dependence then leads us to distinct rationale underlying why the Warburg Effect is beneficial!

Thrilled to see this paper out!! 🧪

Spatial transcriptomics of brain aging and 'spatial aging clocks' identify cells that have pro-aging or pro-rejuvenating effects on their neighbors!

Huge CONGRATS to Eric Sun and all authors! Fantastic collaboration with @jameszou.bsky.social!
