Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.

Nutrient/TOR signaling controls adipose mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) to regulate organismal growth in Drosophila

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Animals must match their growth rate to available nutrients. We show that in Drosophila larvae, the nutrient‐sensing TOR kinase controls growth by regulating levels of TFAM, a key regulator of mitochondrial function, in the adipose tissue. When nutrients are abundant, high TOR activity suppresses TFAM, lowering mitochondrial bioenergetic activity and ...

Manipulation by design [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Markets
AbstractHuman behaviour is affected by architecture, including how online user interfaces are designed. The purpose of this article is to provide insights into the regulation of behaviour modification by the design of choice architecture in light of the European Union data protection law (GDPR) and marketing law (UCPD). It has become popular to use the

Extension versus Bending for Continuum Robots

open access: yesInternational Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2008
In this paper, we analyze the capabilities of a novel class of continuous-backbone ("continuum") robots. These robots are inspired by biological "trunks, and tentacles". However, the capabilities of established continuum robot designs,

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

A New Task-Space Neural Nonlinear Control Approach for Robotic Manipulators Under Joint Constraints

open access: yesIEEE Access
Robotic manipulators are nonlinear systems with multi-input multi-output (MIMO) structures, uncertainties, and time-varying dynamical prospects. Unexpected influences of internal and external disturbances along with physical constraints in complicated ...

Analytical Method for Determination of Internal Forces of Mechanisms and Manipulators

open access: yesRobotics, 2018
This paper presents a theory for the analytical determination of internal forces in the links of planar linkage mechanisms and manipulators with statically determinate structures, considering the distributed dynamic loads.

Ligand‐dependent transcriptional heterogeneity in cell cycle gene expression delays G1/S entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
EGF and HRG induce distinct G1/S progression programs in ErbB2‐amplified BT474 breast cancer cells. Despite activating the potent ErbB2–ErbB3 heterodimer, HRG does not accelerate cell‐cycle entry. Instead, EGF promotes earlier restriction‐point passage via ERK–FOS signaling, whereas HRG activates the AKT–MYC axis, driving transcriptional heterogeneity ...
