The natural matching of harmonic responses in the pulmonary circulation [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, 2019
Key points The right ventricle of the mammal heart is highly sensitive to the afterload imposed by a combination of the pulmonary circulation and the retrograde contribution of the left heart. Right ventricular afterload can be analysed in terms of pulmonary artery input impedance, which we were able to decompose as the result of the harmonic frequency

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

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.
