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.

The disruptive effects of COPD exacerbation-associated factors on epithelial repair responses
IntroductionExacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) increase mortality risk and can lead to accelerated loss of lung function. The increased inflammatory response during exacerbations contributes to worsening of airflow limitation ...

Key toolkits of non-pharmacological management in COPD: during and beyond COVID-19
Individuals with COPD are at higher risk of severe disease and mortality if they contract COVID-19. Shielding and social distancing have negatively impacted the delivery of routine care for COPD patients, which should be maintained to avoid further ...

Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

Comparison of clinical features between patients with acute exacerbation of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia and collagen vascular disease-associated interstitial pneumonia [PDF]
Acute exacerbation (AE) of interstitial pneumonia (IP) shows poor prognosis, due to the typical histological pattern of diffuse alveolar damage superimposed upon lung fibrosis.

This study reveals that the small GTPase Rab14 is necessary for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and plays an essential role in the transport of virions to the trans‐Golgi network (TGN). HPV in the early endosome (EE), which harbors GTP‐bound Rab14, is transported to the TGN through the switch of Rab14 from its GTP‐bound to GDP‐bound form.

Management of exacerbations of COPD [PDF]
Exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are an important cause of morbidity and mortality in the condition, and their incidence increases with its severity. Some patients suffer frequent exacerbations leading to hospital admission, with considerable impact on their quality of life and activities of daily living. COPD exacerbations
