I find myself reaching for this thing without even knowing it. How do I stop?

GENKIstarKID - Twitch What's up? I'm Genki☆Kid. よろしく！げんき☆KIDです。¿Qué tal? Soy Genki☆Kid. 안녕! 나는 겐키☆키드야. I'm not actually bilingual so you're gonna have to just deal with google translate. MUAHAHA! I'm a variety streamer, m...

Dietary restriction reprograms CD8+ T cell fate to enhance anti-tumour immunity and immunotherapy responses - Nature Metabolism Dietary restriction promotes the expansion of effector T cells via ketone bodies, which enhances anti-tumour immunity and synergizes with immunotherapy in mice.

#WeAreWhatWeEat! Jones &co show @natmetabolism.nature.com that dietary restriction empowers CD8+ T cells within the #tumor microenvironment by potentiating #mitochondrial metabolism via ketone body utilization, limiting T cell exhaustion, & synergizing with anti-PD1 immunotherapy!

Acetylated cellulose suppresses body mass gain through gut commensals consuming host-accessible carbohydrates The benefits and mechanisms of prebiotics that target the gut microbiota in treating obesity remain poorly understood. Takeuchi et al. report that acetylated cellulose promotes fatty acid oxidation an...

#WeekendRead! #WeAreWhatWeEat, #MicrobiotaPower! Takeuchi, Ohno &co show @cp-cellmetabolism.bsky.social that acetylated cellulose reduces body weight gain in lean & obese mice by favoring utilization of simple sugars by the microbiota, forcing hepatic fatty acid utilization! dlvr.it/TMKzHY

Cysteine depletion triggers adipose tissue thermogenesis and weight loss - Nature Metabolism The authors describe how reduced dietary availability and systemic loss of cysteine leads to adipose tissue browning and rapid weight loss in mice and humans.

#WeAreWhatWeEat! #EveryCellIsAnImmuneCell! Dixit, Lee &co show @natmetabolism.nature.com that caloric restriction depletes cysteines, driving weight loss & browning of white adipose tissue via sympathetic nervous system-derived noradrenaline signaling, reversing metabolic inflammation in obese mice!

We humans are a strange species when it comes to eating preferences and each country and cuisine will test your bravery to try what tickles their fancy.

Macrophages recycle phagocytosed bacteria to fuel immunometabolic responses - Nature Phagocytosed bacteria can serve as an alternative nutrient source for macrophages, influencing their metabolic and immune responses through the recycling of microbial components, with the process regu...

#WeekendRead! #WeAreWhatWeEat! Lesbats, Garaude &co show @nature.com that macrophages recycle phagocytosed bacteria to fuel their metabolism but that dead, compared to live, bacteria still feed macrophages but reduce the induction of ROS & the secretion of IL1b! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Apoptotic cell identity induces distinct functional responses to IL-4 in efferocytic macrophages Macrophages are functionally heterogeneous cells essential for apoptotic cell clearance. Apoptotic cells are defined by homogeneous characteristics, ignoring their original cell lineage identity. We f...

#WeAreWhatWeEat! Bosurgi, Gagliani, Liebold &co show @science.org that apoptotic cells of different origin engage distinct phagocytosis receptors determining the response of #macrophages to IL4 & to a parasitic #worm infection! doi.org/10.1126/scie...
