Hidden Population III Descendants in Ultrafaint Dwarf Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The elusive properties of the first (Population III or Pop III) stars can be indirectly unveiled by uncovering their true descendants. To this end, we exploit our data-calibrated model for the best-studied ultrafaint dwarf galaxy (UFD), Boötes I, which ...

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.

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

open access: yesFEBS 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.

GW231123 Formation from Population III Stars: Isolated Binary Evolution

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
GW231123 is a merger of two black holes (BHs) with estimated masses exceeding 100  M _⊙ , making them the most massive BHs discovered to date via gravitational-wave (GW) observations.

Type II Cepheids: period-luminosity-metallicity relations for the Population II distance scale

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
Type II Cepheids are a class of pulsating variable stars that play a critical role in our understanding of stellar evolution, distance measurement and tracing the structure and kinematics of old stars in nearby galaxies.

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
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.

Origin of α-poor Very Metal-poor Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Among very metal-poor (VMP) stars, α -poor VMP ( α -PVMP) stars that have subsolar values of [X/Fe] for Mg and other α elements are rare and are thought to have been formed from gas polluted by Type 1a supernova (SN 1a). However, recent analyses indicate

Hyperosmotic stress induces PARP1‐mediated HPF1‐dependent mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Sorbitol‐induced hyperosmotic stress rapidly induces reversible mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation (MARylation) on PARP1 without the signs of genotoxic signaling. We show that PARP1 autoMARylation is HPF1 dependent and forms hydroxylamine‐resistant O‐glycosidic linkages.

Metal-polluted Population III Galaxies and How to Find Them

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Observing Population III (hereafter PopIII) galaxies, the hosts of first-generation stars, remains challenging even with the JWST. The current few candidates have been identified through the combination of a prominent He II emission and the absence of ...

Variable stars in Galactic globular clusters

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
We identified a sample of 88 bona fide Population II Cepheids (henceforth referred to as Cepheids) and 44 candidates in Galactic globular clusters (GCs). Seventy-eight of the Cepheids in the sample align within 2 σ of the period-luminosity relation for Milky Way Type II Cepheids (T2CEPs).
