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

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Chemical looping electricity storage
Developing grid-scale energy storage technologies is the key element for broader deployment of renewable sources of energy. This paper examines a simple cycle which makes use of a thermo-chemical store, with a view to achieving high storage capacity by using the chemical looping concept.

pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9
Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...

Investigation of barium iron oxides for CO2 capture and chemical looping oxygen uncoupling
The performance of two underexploited ternary oxides – Ba3Fe2O6 and Ba5Fe2O8 are investigated for carbon dioxide capture and chemical looping oxygen uncoupling. The ternary compound Ba3Fe2O6 was found to have a structure characterised by space group Pa3¯.

NiO supported on Mg–ZrO2 as oxygen carrier for chemical-looping combustion and chemical-looping reforming [PDF]
Oxygen-carrier particles consisting of 40 wt% NiO supported on 60 wt% Mg-stabilized ZrO2 were produced by freeze granulation and examined as oxygen carrier for chemical-looping applications. Firstly, the particles were examined by oxidation and reduction experiments in a batch fluidized-bed reactor. These experiments indicated very high reactivity with

Modulation of Homer1 EVH1 domain internal dynamics by putative autism‐associated mutations
The putative autism‐associated M65I and S97L variants of the EVH1 domain of the postsynaptic scaffold protein Homer1 do not exhibit substantial changes in their overall structure or partner binding. Both of them, but especially the M65I variant, show altered internal dynamics relative to the wild‐type domain on the μs‐ms timescale, indicated by the ...
