Osteocytic Lipocalin-2 regulates bone formation locally through iron-dependent ferroptosis and Wnt suppression - Cell Death Discovery Cell Death Discovery - Osteocytic Lipocalin-2 regulates bone formation locally through iron-dependent ferroptosis and Wnt suppression

How does the #cytokine #Lipocalin-2 (#LCN2) link #bone and #EnergyHomeostasis? With help from Sable Promethion #Metabolic Cages, scientists revealed how LCN2 modulates bone remodeling by driving #ferroptosis & suppressing #Wnt signaling.

Adipocyte NADH dehydrogenase reverses circadian and diet-induced metabolic syndrome - Nature Metabolism Circadian clock in adipocytes maintains metabolic health by regulating mitochondrial complex I respiration.

How does #Circadian dysregulation contribute to #metabolic diseases? With help from Promethion Metabolic Cages, a Nature #Metabolism study has shown how clock dysfunction alters Complex I respiration, impairing #adipocyte oxidative metabolism.

Linking energy metabolism and echolocation: the relationship between basal metabolic rate and peak frequency in bats Echolocation is a sensory adaptation that enables bats to navigate and forage in darkness, and its energetic demands may influence their basal metabolic rate (BMR). Peak frequency is the frequency ...

#Echolocation enables remarkable feats of nocturnal foraging in bats — but how does peak echolocation frequency influence #BMR across #bat species? With help from a FoxBox #Respirometry System, scientists combined original & existing data to investigate.

My former supervisor sent me back edits on a manuscript, which was originally a chapter from my MSc thesis.

I'm so excited to get this manuscript out soon 🦇

I think I recently saw a paper about the fact that exposure to low oxygen levels is benificial for O2crit/Pcrit. Did I imagine that ? I can't seem to find it anymore. Anyone knows what I am talking about ?
Thank you !

How to Accurately Measure Energy Expenditure This video shows how the accuracy of energy expenditure measurements is dependent on the flow rate of air through mouse metabolic cages.

When measuring #EnergyExpenditure in mice, it's crucial to maintain a sufficient air flow through your Promethion #Metabolic Cage. This video explains how to optimize the flow rate for accurate metabolic measurements. 🧪

Any day spent in the workshop with music in the background is a good day. More #respirometry chambers in the making!

A conceptual drawing of the message that should be displayed before triggering a reset. it reads "Resetting will make cycles return to F0. Proceed with reset?" And then the options "No" and "Yes" show up below.

An LCD showing the same message text after it has been uploaded to the arduino board that powers the controller.

Something I really love about building stuff up is watching ideas come to life. Today: Upgrading our #respirometry pump controller so it can reset itself for a new trial. Little demo below.
