Our most comprehensive review ever, now out in print. Hopefully a good ressource for many. Great collaboration with Phil Bilan and Amira Klip.
This review highlights the molecular mechanisms that regulate glucose utilization in skeletal muscle, the primary site of glucose storage and oxidation. Erik A. Richter, et al. 🖱️#GlucoseMetabolism #InsulinSensitization

So well deserved, Lykke is a star!.
Congratulations to @LykkeSylow, winner of the 2026 International Award! Bridging bioinformatics, physiology, biochemistry and cell biology, Lykke's innovative and interdisciplinary research addresses critical gaps in our understanding of diabetes and related metabolic disorders

Fascinating how reducing protein intake increases energy expenditure in men and mice regardless of whether protein in the diet is replaced by carbohydrate or fat.
Lowering dietary protein requires a higher total energy intake to maintain body weight in young men. New fuel for diet debates: low-protein, high-carb diets… Happy to have contributed to this fascinating paper from the Twitterless Kiens Group.

Breakthrough science!.
Cellular crosstalk in skeletal muscle? A surprising role for mast cells? Histamine as a signal transducer during exercise? This was an amazing ride during my time @TeamDerave, now published in @Cell_Metabolism (1/11). @ugent_fge, @FWOVlaanderen .

Very happy to see this huge project finally published and grateful for a terrific collaboration with Katrien De Bock @debocklab and others. Started with a simple question whether GLUT1 is necessary for glucose transport out of muscle capillaries but spiralled into inflamation.

New look at AMPK!.
AMPK inhibits anabolic processes and thus regulates cell catabolism. However, AMPK’s role in cell homeostasis might not be as unidirectional as originally thought. Here we explore evidence for AMPK as an enhancer of anabolic capacity in muscle & fat

Our quest to save exploratory human physiology from suffocating clinical trial registration.
Exploratory physiological experiments are not clinical trials

Exercise is even better in increasing insulin sensitivity in muscle than we thought:

We urge journals to adopt a more flexible stand, abandon the ICMJE guidelines and perhaps use a questionnaire for authors to fill out when submitting a paper that then determines if a study is a clinical trial or an experimental physiological study.
