This novel value-added process for wild blueberries can be used to develop a functional food ingredient or nutraceutical with potential applications for the prevention of MASLD (NAFLD) among at-risk individuals.

📢Another great collaboration with Neale Ridgway @DalMedSchool on the promyelocytic leukemia (PML) protein and lipids. Here we show how induction of inner nuclear membrane (INM) curvature stress leads to PML II patches at the INM. Check it out 👇

MASLD, previously known as NAFLD, is a major global health issue. This review highlights the mechanistic insights into how dietary phytochemicals modulate both direct and indirect AMPK–Nrf2 interactions to counteract MASLD.

Dr Wallace and her team have uncovered a previously un-described “Atlantic Cancer Syndrome” among a cohort of 2000 patients operated on for lung cancer. We are working to revise prevention and screening strategies.

Dietary supplementation of haskap berry inhibits the P450-activated NNK carcinogenic metabolite formation. Hence, anthocyanin supplementation could be a strategy to reduce lung cancers among smokers.

Why are so many inherited traits not explained by genome sequence variation? In my PhD work with @wbderry we describe a new mechanism of inheritance in animals that may account for this ‘missing heritability' 🧵nature.com/articles/s41556-0…
