Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Safety Shields, an Automated Failure Handling Mechanism for {BDI} Agents

open access: yes, 2022
The Belief Desire Intention model is a widely used architecture for developing rational agents. Because of its expressiveness, the task of programming a BDI agent can be challenging, especially when applied to safety-critical scenarios. In such scenarios,

KGB propaganda actions against political activity of lithuanians émigré in 1970s–1990s.

open access: yesGenocidas ir Rezistencija, 2009
One of the main tasks of Lithuanian KGB was to weaken, discredit and suppress political activity of Lithuanian émigrés to liberate Lithuania, to change their attitude toward Soviet Lithuania.

Organizing the interface—Plasma membrane architecture and receptor dynamics in virus‐cell interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Tool of KGB operational activity – conspirational flats.

open access: yesGenocidas ir Rezistencija, 2008
Based on the archival sources of the KGB of the Lithuanian SSR, the publication analyses the specificity of the purpose of the KGB’s tools of agent-operative work – meeting apartments and the tendencies of their use.

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Features of lustration in Latvia

open access: yesGenocidas ir Rezistencija, 2006
The KGB, which brought endless disasters to Latvia and its people, was already in the spotlight of Latvian society during the Soviet years. Latvians regarded this organisation as the embodiment of all communist evil.

Agents of discovery

open access: yesSciPost Physics
The substantial data volumes encountered in modern particle physics and other domains of fundamental physics research allow (and require) the use of increasingly complex data analysis tools and workflows. While the use of machine learning (ML) tools for data analysis has recently proliferated, these tools are typically special-purpose algorithms that ...

Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Viruses infect all living organisms and have been responsible for major epidemics and pandemics. Their ongoing evolutionary battle with host defenses creates a constant need for improved tools to study viral behavior. Advancing methods to probe viral attachment, fusion, and genome release deepen our understanding of how infections begin and support the

Germany Democratic Republic and Polish National Republic political polices

open access: yesGenocidas ir Rezistencija, 2006
The Soviet regime needed to establish security structures in the satellite states. Due to the weak satellite communist parties (further weakened by Stalin’s repression), the Soviet regime had no confidence in its allies.
