proteome (our cool cover😎), an editorial on our NEW brief article type, as well as the latest on
#metabolism
research across the board.

COMMENT | If you have not read it yet,
@LagzielShoval
, Eyal Gottlieb & Tomer Shlomi provide arguments & quantitative examples of why choosing an appropriate cell culture medium matters, particularly in metabolic studies.
Mind your media! 🧫

Breaking news: our first batch of three papers will be published online on 19 November! We are thrilled to share them with the rest of the world 😀 Two more papers likely to follow in December. The rest of Nature Metabolism Issue 1 will then go live on 7 January!
CONSENSUS STATEMENT
Reactive oxygen species are complex & difficult to measure.
A group led by Murphy & Halliwell (
@Cambridge_Uni
,
@NUSingapore
) proposes guidelines on ROS nomenclature & assessment in cells, tissues & in vivo.

PERSPECTIVE | Led by
@MitoPsychoBio
(
@ColumbiaMed
):
The terms
#mitochondrial
‘function’ & ‘dysfunction’ do not do justice to the diverse mitochondrial features, activities, functions & behaviors within cells, thus calling for more specific
#terminology
.
NEWS & VIEWS | Angelim & Moraes-Vieira (
@unicampoficial
):
A transient burst of glycolysis is crucial for continual efferocytosis, in a mechanism that differs from the metabolic adaptation observed in pro-inflammatory macrophages.
NEW ISSUE
✅Reviews on 1) Mitophagy and 2) Ketone Bodies
✅Original research on
#metabolism
in animal models & the clinic
Our cool cover highlights work on
#stress
& mitochondria, which provides a link between metabolism &
#emotional
disorders.

Metabolic processes of immune & non-immune cells following virus recognition modulate the natural course of viral infections. Such alterations could influence longer-term manifestations of infection.
Everything you always wanted to know about leptin - explained by Jeffrey Friedman. Plus the introduction of "type 1 obesity" and "type 2 obesity" defined by leptin plasma levels and leptin sensitivity.

Review | Discovered in 1994, leptin has revolutionized our understanding of adipose tissue & systemic metabolic homeostasis.
Jeffery Friedman (
