I'm thrilled to share that the lab has received its first R01!! Together with Shuyi Ma (@ma_lab_cgidr) and Christoph Grundner, we will be exploring how M tuberculosis gene networks regulate drug tolerance. More soon, but we will be recruiting postdocs and graduate students!

Excited to share our latest paper led by Renata Goncalves @RenataG81952725: CoQ imbalance drives reverse electron transport to disrupt liver metabolism.
nature.com/articles/s4158…
We uncover how altered CoQ redox balance triggers RET and rewires hepatic metabolism to offer critical insights into a decades old question. Meticulously mapping each one of the 11 sites of the mitochondrial electron transport chain in the liver showed site IQ as the sole source of excess mitochondrial ROS, produced via reverse electron transport. This defect is driven by CoQ imbalance in obesity, disrupts glucose metabolism.
These findings may have implications for many diseases and open up new treatment possibilities where broad antioxidants have failed to generate therapeutic benefit. Our findings may also offer a potential mechanism and solution for the increased diabetes risk seen in a small fraction of statin users.
Huge congratulations to Renata Goncalves @RenataG81952725 for leading this work and for her immense dedication and patience to bring it to a conclusion. Congratulations to all contributors from the @hotamisligil lab and our amazing collaborators Isabel Graupera @igraupe and Shawn Burgess @Isotopomer
Curious? The 93-page-long peer review file is full of useful information and insightful discussions.

Happy to share the final version of this work where we incorporated isotope labeled CO2 data into mass spec-based flux analysis framework to build a whole-body flux model of energy metabolism. Full article access here: authors.elsevier.com/a/1keM55WXUlaX…

Happy to share a preprint on our effort of building whole-body flux models. We integrated the key organismal metabolic parameter CO2 production rate and also its isotope labeling into the in vivo isotope tracing framework.
