New research led by #LKCMedicine Assoc Prof Yasunori Saheki reveals how cholesterol protects cells' recycling centers during mitophagy and converts leftover fats into energy. Could offer new insights into neurodegenerative diseases! 🧬👇 lnkd.in/gyGv2zDZ

Excited to share this! Lysosomal membrane cholesterol is important for lysosomal function and lipid recycling during mitophagy. Thank you Koji, my co-first author, and all co-authors, @ysaheki for the mentorship, and Aik Yong & @Isaspore @NUSMedicine for the beautiful CLEM!
Our new paper revealing the link between cholesterol and the clearance and recycling of damaged mitochondria is now published in @NatureComms! Congrats to @YHaoning & Koji @NTUsg who led the study, and thanks to Aik Yong & @Isaspore @NUSMedicine for CLEM! nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

A long-standing mystery in cholesterol biology: why is ER cholesterol sensing so switch-like rather than gradual? Our answer: cholesteryl ester phase separation in the ER, which converts small lipid changes into a cooperative transcriptional response. biorxiv.org/content/10.64898…

Myeong and Klyachko demonstrate that astrocytic cholesterol release modulates synaptic transmission in an activity-dependent manner to fine-tune the balance and spatial organization of different forms of synaptic exo- and endocytosis. hubs.la/Q04rQ2zD0 #Neuroscience
