It’s #EMmonday and we’re looking at skeletal muscle with Euri Kim, Vandana Gupta @ResearchMuscle and colleagues. They identify defects in the glycerolipid pathway in tango2 mutants linked to rhabdomyolysis. 📖@DMM_Journal: journals.biologists.com/dmm/…

Not all important news to share is good. This week at the American Neurological Association in Chicago, we shared how, beginning in 2018, we began studying ASO therapeutic strategies for one of the most devastating infantile epilepsy syndromes we know. @TheNewANA1 #ANA2022

First MoTrPAC major multi-omic paper is online! This is an outstanding molecular view of whole body exercise hoping to unravel mechanisms for how exercise improves health and prevents disease.
We are thrilled to share the preprint for the Molecular Transducers of Physical Activity Consortium’s (aka MoTrPAC) first major multi-omic multi-tissue exercise study and data resource! biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor…
