🧪 Can mature #adipocytes really give rise to stem cells?
This study using a murine adiponectin-creERT;mT/mG model confirms: DFAT cells do originate from mature adipocytes—but the resulting population is heterogeneous.

O-GlcNAcylation of epidermal growth factor receptor and glucose transporter 1 prevents their intrinsic down regulation in breast cancer cells
The hexosamine biosynthetic pathway (HBP) is upregulated in many cancer cell types leading to upregulation of post-translational modification of proteins by β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc), the…
