>5yrs ago as a #postdoc, Abdallah El-Thaileb, aka Eteleeb and I began work on identifying #lncRNAs in late-stage relapse #breastcancer Christopher Maher. Today, 🎉 #SilvaFisherlab Christopher Maher paper highlighting some of our findings!! S/O Abdallah El-Thaileb, aka Eteleeb hard work! 👏 nature.com/articles/s4152… (1/4)

Here's the latest from our lab. Truly a team effort involving three co-first authors Nicole Yiew Manuel Gutiérrez-Aguilar Michael Martino who all sequentially made important contributions to this work. cell.com/cell-reports/f…

The first preprint from the Brookheart Lab identifies Site-1 Protease, a regulator of ATF6 and SREBPs, as an inhibitor of skeletal muscle metabolism and mass. Many thanks to our collaborators! Brian Finck @terri_pietka Meyer Muscle Lab biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Based on an earlier observation made in a patient with an S1P mutation, this mechanistic work is starting to unravel some interesting roles for this protease in muscle metabolism. Glad to see this come to fruition and more interesting findings on the way!!

On the 2 year anniversary of starting my lab, I am excited to share our paper in Cell Reports on the role of site-1 protease in muscle metabolism and size. Grateful for our collaborators Brian Finck @terri_pietka and Meyer Muscle Lab !

We worked hard to get polling stations on both @WUSTL campuses. WashU DBBS and others who want to vote in STL city (students, faculty, staff, patients) please use the NEW polling station in McDonnell Building.
