Bergman on altering lipid localization and adipose tissue cellular composition through weight loss and exercise, Walters, Castro-Gutierrez, Mukherjee & Russ on HLA immune presentation on Human β-Cells, metabolic "Sweet Talk" with Banks, Holman, & Lan

Welcome to the December 2025 episode of DiabetesBio—the American Diabetes Association's podcast for its flagship research publication, Diabetes. In this episode of DiabetesBio, Drs. Kirk Habegger, Darleen Sandoval, and Kevin Williams discuss the latest and greatest content in the December 2025 issue of Diabetes. 13:10 After discussing their favorite interviews of the past two years, our hosts are joined by Bryan Bergman, PhD, a professor in the Division of Endocrinology, Metabolism, and Diabetes at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus. He is the corresponding author of "Combined Weight Loss and Exercise Training Alters Skeletal Muscle Subcellular Lipid Localization and Intermuscular Adipose Tissue Cellular Composition," a featured article in this month's issue. The article is available for free at doi.org/10.2337/db25-0492. 35:25 To discuss the latest Paper of the Month, our hosts are joined by authors Kathryn Walters, PhD, postdoctoral researcher at CU Anschutz, Roberto Castro-Gutierrez, PhD, a postdoctoral fellow at the University of California San Francisco, Neelanjan Mukherjee, PhD, Assistant Professor in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Genetics at the CU Anschutz, and Holger Russ, PhD, Associate Professor in the Department of Pharmacology and Therapeutics at the University of Florida. Their article, "Proteogenomic Discovery of Novel Open Reading Frames With HLA Immune Presentation on Human β-Cells," is available for free at doi.org/10.2337/db24-0527. 1:00:50 In the latest edition of "Sweet Talk," Kevin and Kirk explore how new technologies shape the ways we assess metabolism. They are joined by Alexander Banks, PhD, Director of the Energy Balance core facility at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) at Harvard Medical School, Corey Holman, PhD, Technical Director of the Rodent Metabolic Phenotyping Core at the University of Pennsylvania, and Louise Lantier, PhD, Metabolic Pathophysiology Core Managing Director at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.
