BACKGROUND AND AIMS: A major impediment to establishing new treatments for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis is the lack of suitable animal models that accurately mimic the biochemical and metabolic characteristics of the disease. The aim of this study w

Zinc finger nucleases (ZFN) are powerful tools for editing genes in cells. Here we use ZFNs to interrogate the biological function of ADPGK, which encodes an ADP-dependent glucokinase (ADPGK), in human tumour cell lines. The hypothesis we tested is t

Protein kinase D (PKD) is emerging as an important kinase regulating energy balance and glucose metabolism; however, whether hepatic PKD activity can be targeted to regulate these processes is currently unclear. In this study, hepatic PKD activity wa

Background Gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) is classified as a highly curable group of pregnancy-related malignancies; however, approximately 15% will be persistent and require chemotherapy. Up to 25% of these women will develop resistance a

Aims/Hypothesis Current drugs used to treat metabolic diseases such as obesity and type 2 diabetes have limited efficacy in directly normalising muscle insulin action, while exercise is effective in enhancing this aspect of metabolic disease. We rece

Zinc accumulation may impair cellular bioenergetics, which is associated with neuronal apoptosis. We simultaneously assessed anaerobic and aerobic metabolism in live cells to characterise this effect and hypothesised that the omega 3 fatty acid docos

The endocannabinoid system (ECS) and retinoic acid (RA) signaling have been associated with influencing lipid metabolism. We hypothesized that modulation of these pathways could modify lipid abundance in developing vertebrates and that these pathways

Differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes are a widely used in vitro model of white adipocytes. In addition to classical white and brown adipocytes that are derived from different cell lineages, beige adipocytes have also been identified, which have character
