First preprint from the lab, led by @gabbov.bsky.social! We identify a metabolic bottleneck that helps set the pace of human development: low levels of the redox enzyme GPD1L limit NADH recycling. Boosting GPD1L mimics mouse cells and accelerates development! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Multicellular organisms, as the name suggests, are composed of many cells that work together. Cells need to stick together to ensure efficient cell coordination. Cadherins, which are calcium-dependent...

Beautiful work into Vici Syndrome from @kritsh.bsky.social, investigating how pathogenic variants in EPG5 drive neurodegeneration through mitochondrial dysfunction and innate immune activation. @gabbov.bsky.social @chihyao.bsky.social @natcomms.nature.com www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Pathogenic variants in the autophagy-tethering factor EPG5 drive neurodegeneration through mitochondrial dysfunction and innate immune activation - Nature Communications
Mutations in the autophagy protein EPG5 cause multisystem disease, including neurodegeneration. This study shows that impaired mitophagy drives mitochondrial Ca2+ overload with permeability transition...

Very cool to see more work exploring how NAD availability and redox state shape developmental tempo. Congrats to Nisha and Francois on this preprint!
