While lipid droplets are generally known as lipid storage organelles, the primary function for lipid droplet biogenesis may be for alleviating endoplasmic reticulum stress. Check out our latest review for details.

Sometimes working on basic science has implications for people’s life. Studying intracellular lipid trafficking we have stumbled upon a group of individuals affected by neurodevelopmental syndrome and bearing mutations in CERT1 jci.org/articles/view/165019

Thrilled to share that the PITT pathway is now online @Nature. rdcu.be/cU85m. We identified ER-lysosomal membrane contacts and subsequent lysosomal lipid transfer as an essential mechanism for rapid lysosomal repair. @PittTweet @AgingPitt @PittDeptofMed @UPMC

STING is activated and translocated out of the ER at baseline in VPS13CKO cells. Hancock-Cerutti et al. @PDClab show that the #Parkinsons disease-related ER-lysosome lipid transfer protein VPS13C prevents aberrant mtDNA-dependent STING signaling. bit.ly/3MePOyP

65 days left to #EUSettlement application deadline. Everyday I meet people who haven't applied from lack of knowledge/understanding, fear, procrastination, thinking they're exempt, lack of funds for IDs, lack of assistance from embassies/communities. Retweet & talk to EVERYONE
