Study reveals the cause of rapid weight re-gain after short-term dieting. Apparently, it is microbial: Lactobacillus and its metabolites promote enhanced post-diet intestinal lipid absorption, which can be alleviated by restricting Lactobacillus growth. nature.com/articles/s4225…

Another paper from the lab!

😯

New paper from the lab, led by #IdrisMohammed and #SenthilSelvaraj from our lab

🧵1/ Our latest study on the effects of short-term processed food consumption on brain and olfactory health in mice is out Molecular Metabolism! 🐭🍔 Amazing collaboration between Saraiva Lab 🇶🇦, Eduardo Zimmer 🦋 Zimmer Lab 🇧🇷, and many others at Monell Center 🇺🇸 #NutritionScience #BrainHealth

Very happy to collaborate with Saraiva Lab Luis Saraiva team! Many thanks to Débora Guerini and Bruna Bellaver who led the 🇧🇷 arm of the study! This is the first of many 👉 what happens when you change your diet for a short period? Your olfaction and Brain rapidly adapt! 👇

🚨 Paper alert: a link between dietary habits, odor-guided behaviors, and brain metabolism! A collaboration between Saraiva Lab and Zimmer Lab shedding light on the impact of modern diets on olfaction and brain function 🧠 Molecular Metabolism (tinyurl.com/yn9d8rmw)

In this study, we tested the impact of highly processed diets given to mice for a short period of time (~1 mo) on the olfactory system and brain metabolic responses. Highly processed diets can impact odor-guided behaviors and important hubs in brain metabolism 🐭🍔

🧵1/8: Our latest study ClinGenetNews with the labs of Joel Mainland and Darren Logan, sheds light on the genetics behind the inability to smell from birth - a condition impacting 1 in 10,000 people. bitly.ws/37pJd 👃👃 #Anosmia

Check out our new study "Identifying candidate genes underlying isolated congenital anosmia" - a collaboration between the Saraiva Lab at Sidra Medicine, Joel Mainland at Monell Center, and Darren Logan at Wellcome Sanger Institute. 👃🧬💻

Turns out that our article made the cover of Molecular Metabolism! It is the first cover of the Saraiva Lab! Congrats y'all! molecularmetabolism.com

Amazing way to start 2024! The first collaboration between the Zimmer Lab and the Saraiva Lab got the cover of Molecular Metabolism! Congrats to the team! molecularmetabolism.com

and just like that Saraiva Lab and Zimmer Lab made the cover 👃🥩🍕🍝🍗🥕🌶️

So happy to share our new work that is now out @sciencemagazine: We show how neurons in the mouse zona incerta (ZI) modulate infant social behaviors and learning. This work was led by the AMAZING graduate student Yuexuan Li Yuexuan Li 李玥璇. 🎉science.org/doi/epdf/10.11… #ScienceResearch

📢 New pub from Saraiva Lab! We identified a novel #ADCY3 variant linked to severe #ChildhoodObesity. Functional analysis reveals how this mutation disrupts metabolism and lipid regulation, impacting early-onset obesity. Read it here: mdpi.com/1422-0067/25/2…
