This study shows that liver-specific loss of ARGLU1 in mice prevents diet-induced obesity without affecting food intake, locomotion, or energy expenditure, due to reduced lipid absorption and altered bile acid metabolism.

The paper identifies marginal cells in C. elegans pharynx as a sink for hydrophobic small molecules through sphingomyelin synthesis and cholesterol absorption.

This study identifies ARGLU1 as a glucocorticoid receptor coactivator and splicing modulator, showing its role in stress hormone signaling and brain development through genetic and transcriptomic analyses.
