Modeling lipid homeostasis using stable isotope tracing and flux analysis
Online now: Wessendorf-Rodriguez et al. develop a pipeline for applying metabolic flux analysis to quantify lipid homeostasis. Lipid-MFA elucidates differences in synthesis and salvage fluxes in precision-cut lung slices harboring tumors with common driver mutations of lung adenocarcinoma. Application of Lipid-MFA reveals distinct trafficking of ceramide species into the sphingolipidome.

In a paper published today in Nature, the researchers say their tests suggest the data will be readable for more than 10,000 years.
