Type 2 diabetes risk alleles in peptidyl-glycine alpha-amidating monooxygenase influence GLP-1 levels and response to GLP-1 receptor agonists - Genome Medicine Genome Medicine - Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Despite the availability of multiple glucose-lowering agents, only half of individuals with T2D...

Our latest work on PAM is out #GenomeMedicine

We show that PAM-T2D risk alleles result in "GLP-1 resistance".

I am so proud of this collaborative work championed by two incredible early career academics - Mahesh Umpathysivam & Elisa Araldi (not on BlueSky)

For ~century, we’ve asked: why do proliferating cells ferment glucose even when O2 is around? I’m thrilled to share our latest work @natmetabolism.nature.com, led by @thebiokimist.bsky.social. By leveraging conditional essentiality in HPLM, we propose a provocative new answer to this classic Q. 🧵

Complete Loss of PAX4 causes Transient Neonatal Diabetes in Humans Gene discovery studies in individuals with diabetes diagnosed within 6 months of life (neonatal diabetes, NDM) can provide unique insights into the de…

Really proud of this Exeter–Stanford collaboration identifying bi-allelic variants in PAX4 as a novel cause of transient neonatal diabetes—the first new genetic cause of this subtype described in over a decade. This work expands our understanding of beta cell development.

Its thought deep learning will substantially improve PGS but the reality is MANY have tried but no/little gain has been seen so far. Here we report our negative results.
