HR3/RORα-mediated cholesterol sensing regulates TOR signaling

M. Lassen, K. Pardee, L. H. Pedersen, O. Kubrak, T. Koyama, S. Necakov, S. Liu, A. Kuksis, G. Lajoie, A. Edwards, A. A. Teleman, M. R. Larsen, H. M. Krause, M. J. Texada, K. Rewitz

The paper identifies HR3/RORα as a conserved cholesterol sensor that activates the TOR pathway in Drosophila and human cells, linking cholesterol availability to growth regulation.

A neuronal relay mediates muscle-adipose communication that drives systemic metabolic adaptation to high-sugar diets

O. Kubrak, A. F. Joergensen, T. Koyama, S. Nagy, M. Lassen, J. Hald, D. Madsen, K. V. Halberg, M. J. Texada, J. L. Hansen, K. Rewitz

The paper identifies a muscle-neuronal-fat tissue axis that modulates insulin secretion and adipocyte sensitivity to high-sugar diets, preventing hyperglycemia.

Insulin signaling couples growth and early maturation to cholesterol intake

M. J. Texada, M. Lassen, L. H. Pedersen, A. Malita, K. Rewitz

This study shows that dietary cholesterol promotes growth and early maturation in Drosophila by enhancing insulin-like peptide expression through glial and fat-tissue relays.
