Excited and grateful to be part of this @novonordiskfond sponsored initiative to investigate if the gut microbiome causes cardiometabolic disease in humans!
Novo Nordisk Foundation@novonordiskfond

By adding bacteria to our gut, removing them, or changing what we eat, we could reduce our risk of developing diseases such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. A new research project, led by @foodDTUdk at @DTUtweet and funded by the Novo Nordisk Foundation, aims to find out more about this link, ultimately leading to new prevention or treatment options for people living with, or at risk of, cardiometabolic disease. novonordiskfonden.dk/en/news/bacter… #obesity #diabetes #cardiovasculardisease

Our new paper "GLP-1-directed NMDA receptor antagonism for obesity treatment" is out today in @Nature nature.com/articles/s4158… We describe the engineering and preclinical development of a new drug candidate that targets NMDA receptors in GLP-1 receptor neurons. 1/8 🧵👇

Time to 🎉🎊!! The lab turned 5, I was awarded the “docent” title, and most importantly, a major manuscript accepted (stay tuned!). Thanks to my fantastic group and all the people who supported us along the way! #proudPI And yes, we do enjoy Western diet! 🍰

In collaboration with @DanielJDrucker we made the surprising observation 10+ years ago that GLP-1R deficient mice dies. Further work led by @GreinerTU with support from @MucinBiology revealed involvement of #gobletcells.

More essential roles for GLP-1R in the mouse gut, here in the maintenance of colonic physiology and survival during energy deprivation in germ free mice @BackhedLab @MolMetab sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

The importance of diet- and gut #microbes-derived #Bvitamins to our health, a review I have been considering to write since I am a postdoc in @BackhedLab. So deeply grateful for all his mentorship and support of me to be an independent PI now. Delighted to see it now published.
Cell Host & Microbe@cellhostmicrobe

Navigating the B vitamins. This review examines how variability in #diet & gut #microbiome impacts B vitamin availability & discusses potential strategies, w/a focus on microbiota-based therapeutic options, to enhance B vitamins for improved human health cell.com/cell-host-micr…
