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

, 2009 We present a domain-independent algorithm that computes macros in a novel way. Our algorithm computes macros "on-the-fly" for a given set of states and does not require previously learned or inferred information, nor prior domain knowledge. The algorithm is used to define new domain-independent tractable classes of classical planning that are proved to

Drosophila Glue: A Promising Model for Bioadhesion
Insects, 2022 The glue produced by Drosophila larvae to attach themselves to a substrate for several days and resist predation until the end of metamorphosis represents an attractive model to develop new adhesives for dry environments.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Modeling of physical fitness of young karatyst on the pre basic training
Pedagogics, Psychology, Medical-Biological Problems of Physical Training and Sports, 2014 Purpose : to develop a program of physical fitness for the correction of the pre basic training on the basis of model performance. Material: 57 young karate sportsmen of 9-11 years old took part in the research. Results : the level of general and special

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Drosophila park mutants serve as a model for Parkinson's disease. We used this strain to investigate the connection between oxidative stress and the circadian clock mechanism. We showed that increased oxidative stress affects the physiology of pacemaker cells, disrupting their daily structural plasticity. Lack of rhythmic signaling from pacemaker cells

Effects of Different Hosts on Bacterial Communities of Parasitic Wasp Nasonia vitripennis
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Parasitism is a special interspecific relationship in insects. Unlike most other ectoparasites, Nasonia vitripennis spend most of its life cycle (egg, larvae, pupae, and early adult stage) inside the pupae of flies, which is covered with hard puparium ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

Cell Death & Differentiation, 2000 Caspases, a group of cysteine proteases, constitute the effector arm of the cell death machinery. There are seven caspases known in Drosophila, three of which contain long amino-terminal prodomains. Although, compared to mammalian caspases, much less is known about the biology of Drosophila caspases, many studies have shown that caspases are essential ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...
