We had a great end to 2024 publishing: The Zebrafish Sperm Proteome analyticalsciencejournals.on… We described >5400 sperm proteins generating a great atlas for future work! Spearheaded by PhD student @JaymeCohenBIO with great collaborators at @biouea and @JohnInnesCentre

This is a simple parsimonious model to explain the evolution of lifespan extension by dietary restriction and other forms of stress that suppress fertility. Happy to be part of this exciting study!
1/8 Why does eating less extend lifespan? 🧬 We often think about saving energy or recycling waste - but we show how evolution acting on mutation load can generate longer life on low food 🧵 and preprint below: 🔗 tinyurl.com/jn5ryhxv

I am also incredibly proud of this preprint: Gum Arabic (Acacia senegal) enhances reproduction and modulates the microbiota-gut-brain axis.... biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… Again a massive team effort by @Ko0L_J_ @asdfjohnny @AliceGodden @JaymeCohenBIO et al!

Incredibly excited to share our preprint (shorturl.at/JTwuJ) from @SimoneImmler’s Lab 🥳! By harnessing genomics, proteomics, and phenomics, we show that selecting high-quality sperm within an ejaculate could reduce the risk of diseases in future generations 🤯!

I am incredibly proud of this paper in preprint: Within-ejaculate haploid selection reduces disease biomarkers in human sperm lnkd.in/dZwDJHbX It has been long in the making and has been a true team effort! @danielmarcu @JaymeCohenBIO @AliceGodden @GAlavioon et al!

Selection within the ejaculate of men results in genetic changes in key genes involved in neurodevelopment, cell signalling and cell proliferation and that the 'fitter' sperm in an ejaculate exhibit reduced expression of biomarkers for neurodevelopmental disorders and cancers

Germline removal benefits males more than females - led by @martin_i_lind in @AgingCell : onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… (see earlier bioRxiv link below). Stress resistance improved in both sexes. Remarkable congruence with killifish work pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3875… @ItamarHarel
How does germline removal affect lifespan in females and males? There are theoretical arguments to suggest that germline is more costly to maintain in males, @martin_i_lind and friends tested this in C. remanei 1/2: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
