Cells change how they make energy over days, not minutes. A single time point can miss when a shift starts and whether cells recover. Resipher captures live-cell respiration continuously inside the incubator, over days to weeks. lucidsci.com

The FDA recently swapped "animal" for "nonclinical" in its safety testing rules. Human models take weeks to build. Resipher measures their respiration the whole time, right in your incubator. Published in iPSC models, organoids and spheroids: lucidsci.com/resources#pu... #NAMs

Can one 96-well plate follow algae making oxygen by day and using it by night? Jolly, Place and team at IMET used Resipher to track dinoflagellate photosynthesis and respiration in 32 wells at once, with rates in line with carbon fixation. Paper below.

How do cells rewire fat metabolism when oxygen runs low? At #HypoxEU, @LozaValdes (@UniHeidelberg) showed losing the E3 ligase RNF145 helps cells survive hypoxia by storing fatty acids as triacylglycerol instead of toxic lipids. Great poster, Angel! #Hypoxia #LipidMetabolism

At HypoxEU Live, Eva Ferro (@cnc-uc.bsky.social) showed how oxygen priming reshapes the proteome of umbilical cord MSCs from 9 donors. Resipher tracked their respiration at 24, 48 and 72 h.

Do struggling neurons get help from their neighbors? Riou, Grimm et al. at @biomedizin.unibas.ch show astrocytes transfer mitochondria to P301L tau neuronal cells. Resipher tracked respiration from plating: +91% after transfer. lucidsci.com/resources?publication=QN1pawUcr1Pc2czbZuzJ6 #Tau

May your days be filled with warmth, laughter, and everything that makes the holidays special.🎄

Human heart–macrophage assembloids were generated that produced tissue-resident macrophages which influence cardiac organization and electrical behavior. Bioenergetic function was assessed by measuring OCR using Resipher, enabling comparison of mitochondrial respiration. cell.com/cell-stem-ce...

Excellent example of Resipher's use in cancer metabolism and therapeutic discovery. Using Resipher, the study showed that Zelenirstat significantly reduces oxygen consumption in colon and prostate cancer cells, validating its impact on mitochondrial respiration. aacrjournals.org/mct/article/...

It's time to step up your bioenergetic profiling research! With Resipher, you'll enjoy stress-free bioenergetic profiling of mitochondrial ETC function and FAO substrate metabolism, including long-term baselines for stable respiration. Bbook a demo and see for yourself >>> lucidsci.com/resipher

Resipher in Action! This study examined how loss of HMGCR, the rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol synthesis, affects muscle development. Using Resipher, the authors measured oxygen consumption in myotubes derived from HMGCR-deficient myoblasts. febs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....
