Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Fubito Nakatsu"
- Fubito Nakatsu's recent research focuses on the dynamics and functional roles of phosphoinositides and lipids in cellular processes, particularly in the context of membrane contact sites, endocytic pathways, and organelle functions.
- His studies introduce novel fluorescent reporters for monitoring phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate in living cells, investigate the effects of KRP203 on cytoplasmic vacuole formation and phosphoinositide segregation, and explore the significance of very-long-chain fatty acids in neuronal polarity.
- Nakatsu's work employs advanced techniques such as superresolution microscopy and genetic screening to better understand lipid transport mechanisms and their influence on cell behavior and physiology, potentially offering new insights into therapeutic approaches for diseases.
