Excited to publish the second study in my PhD! We found that Lipocalin-2 levels increased with age and lower levels were related to better aerobic capacity across the lifespan in adults free of major disease.

Well done and congratulations Carlie Bauer . This is a great outcome for all your hard work and dedication. Thank you to all our collaborators who made this paper possible.

Let’s explore lipocalin-2 (LCN2)—a hormone linked to inflammation, aging, and metabolism. Recent research suggests exercise may lower its levels, but the story is nuanced. Here’s what we know and where questions remain. 🧵

Key findings: • A study of adults aged 20–87 found LCN2 levels increased linearly with age and BMI, but aerobic fitness was associated with lower LCN2. • Details here: academic.oup.com/jbmrplus/artic…

GLP-1 meds like semaglutide and tirzepatide drive rapid fat loss. But here’s what most people miss: Up to 40% of that weight lost is muscle. That has real consequences: metabolic, functional, and clinical. 🧵 A quick breakdown:
