🚨🚨Our new paper is out! We discuss the potential of nucleoside supplementation as a treatment for RRM2B. Many thanks to all that contributed to this research!
🧬 New paper! We nudge the science forward surrounding deoxynucleoside supplementation & mitochondrial DNA depletion syndromes (MDDS). We show, for the first time in vivo, that deoxynucleoside supplementation can mitigate effects of RRM2B mutations.🔗

Congratulations @mitocollier and @mitodynamics . What a fascinating story on mtDNA release and pyroptosis-must read!
🔥 Interested in how mitochondria control cell death? Our work in @NatureCellBio shows outer mitochondrial membrane MAPL ligase activity drives pyroptosis requiring vesicular mtDNA trafficking & lysosome permeabilisation by gasdermin E pores. @mitodynamics

Astrocytes exert both gain and loss of function pathologies in ALS, providing a dilemma in therapeutics. Prompted by our recent paper in @braincomms, we revisited our earlier works in @CommsBio + @NatureNeuro @NaturePortfolio @NatureComms at https://t.co/bbeRt8bC1R for AC lovers.
