Overview

Peter Strålfors is affiliated with Linköping University in Sweden, contributing to research primarily in the fields of Medicine and Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology. Their work spans several interconnected subfields, including Physiology, Epidemiology, Cell Biology, Surgery, and Cardiology and Cardiovascular Medicine.

The scientist's research focuses on topics related to adipose tissue and metabolism, adipokines, inflammation, and metabolic diseases. They also investigate pancreatic function and diabetes as well as cardiovascular disease and adiposity. Additional research areas include caveolin-1 and cellular processes, metabolism related to diabetes and cancer, and diabetes management and research.

Peter Strålfors has frequently collaborated with several co-authors, including Belén Chanclón, Cecilia Jönsson, Charlotta S. Olofsson, Ingrid Wernstedt Asterholm, and Marco Bauzá-Thorbrügge.

Their recent publications illustrate a focus on adipocyte biology and metabolic flexibility. Notable papers include:

  • "Adiponectin is secreted via caveolin 1-dependent mechanisms in white adipocytes," 2020, Journal of Endocrinology
  • "Adipocyte-specific ablation of the Ca2+ pump SERCA2 impairs whole-body metabolic function and reveals the diverse metabolic flexibility of white and brown adipose tissue," 2022, Molecular Metabolism
  • "A systems biology analysis of lipolysis and fatty acid release from adipocytes in vitro and from adipose tissue in vivo," 2021, PLoS ONE
  • "Adipocyte-specific ablation of the Ca2+ pump SERCA2 impairs whole-body metabolic function and reveals the diverse metabolic flexibility of white and brown adipose tissue," 2022, bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)

Their work has appeared in multiple publication venues, including Molecular Metabolism, Journal of Endocrinology, PLoS ONE, and bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory).
