Thanks @APSPublications for sharing our latest work led by @ferrolrome with key contributions from Gregory Shobert, @VoigtWilliam, @dbstagg, @puchatek22ch, @Isotopomer, and @ketonemics
Loss of hepatic phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 1 dysregulates metabolic responses to acute #exercise but enhances adaptations to exercise training in mice (@ferrolrome, @Hughey_Lab et al. @UMNNews) - new in @AJPEndoMetab

Please check out the latest review from the Division of Molecular Medicine @UMN_DOMResearch
We (@puchatek22ch @ketonemics) hope it is a useful resource for those interested in mitochondrial oxidative metabolism in NAFLD.

Are you referring to that conversation where you brilliantly defended your PhD thesis? On a side note, that review cites some of the great work by @gibalam and colleagues from whom I learned a lot about exercise physiology. I still have my lecture notes! It was a great class btw.

We are looking for a postdoctoral fellow to work on NIH funded studies examining hepatocyte functional heterogeneity in metabolic diseases. Please feel free to contact me for more details.

The enigma that is one-carbon metabolism! In this mouse model, homocysteine remethylation still appears to be a critical node (even though betaine isn't limiting). Perhaps, more consideration given to NAFLD subpopulations or combo approaches (betaine/choline +) is warranted?
Genotype and diet appear to impact liver creatine metabolism.
GNMT KO decreases the guanidinoacetate/creatine ratio.
Methionine restriction increases the phosphocreatine/creatine ratio.
Important considerations for the hepatic and extrahepatic phenotypes, and future studies!
Thanks, Luke.
I'm not sure I was even needed on this one. Ferrol Rome (@ferrolrome) is an outstanding scientist.
Thrilled to share our work 'Disrupted Liver Oxidative Metabolism in Glycine N-Methyltransferase-Deficient Mice is Mitigated by Dietary Methionine Restriction' @MolMetab
This study was led by the very talented, @ferrolrome

Interested in neuroscience and metabolism? The Ayala Lab at Vanderbilt is looking for a post-doctoral fellow to join our diverse group. Projects focus on gut-brain axis and body weight regulation. Strong neuroscience background preferred. Collaborative environment! Please DM me.
I'm glad to hear you're safe and hope you haven't angered anyone by revealing my significant inheritance.
Congrats @_alisanelson and @ferrolrome!
The Division of Molecular Medicine is extremely proud of you and the terrific work you shared at Research Day in the Department of Medicine.
Thrilled that @_alisanelson and Ferrol Rome from
med.umn.edu/dom/divisions/mo…
were recognized with awards this year at Research Day in the Department of Medicine.
Congratulations to all awardees and all presenters for sharing your outstanding work.
I'm not sure if using mouse fur trimmers to cut your own hair in the lab is appropriately described as very meticulous grooming habits.

Check out our latest work in @JCI_insight. I’m really proud of this one:
Big piece of 40 yr old puzzle from @YoungLabVU. Reciprocity of kidney and liver gluconeogenesis using innovative MFA in JCI Insight. Congrats to @mohsin_rahim11 - boy genius - and Clint Hasenour - man genius. insight.jci.org/articles/vie…
The same gift he always gives me. A healthy dose of embarrassment. It's just wrapped in a different package this year.
