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.

A heuristic for variable re-entrant scheduling problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMSs) need a scheduler to provide timing instructions for the operations of different products. Previous work has presented heuristics for fixed-order 2-re-entrant scheduling problems; where products visit a re-entrant ...

Mechanical Properties of Re-Entrant Hybrid Honeycomb Structures for Morphing Wings

open access: yesBiomimetics
The exceptional energy absorption, deformability, and tuneable Poisson’s ratio properties of negative Poisson’s ratio (NPR) honeycomb biomimetic structures make them highly suitable for applications in aerospace, medical, and acoustic stealth industries.

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.

Manufacturing of stretchable substrate with biaxial strain control for highly-efficient stretchable solar cells and displays

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
There has been significant research focused on the development of stretchable materials that can provide a large area with minimal material usage for use in solar cells and displays. However, most materials exhibit perpendicular shrinkage when stretched,

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.

Re-entrant ferromagnet PrMn2Ge0.8Si1.2: Magnetocaloric effect

open access: yes, 2009
The structural and magnetic properties of the re-entrant ferromagnet PrMn2Ge0.8Si1.2 have been investigated by various experimental methods. Similar to the canonical re-entrant ferromagnet SmMn2Ge2, multiple magnetic phase transitions have been detected ...

Organizing the interface—Plasma membrane architecture and receptor dynamics in virus‐cell interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

In-plane energy absorption characteristics and mechanical properties of 3D printed novel hybrid cellular structures

open access: yesJournal of Materials Research and Technology, 2022
This paper developed and fabricated four novel hybrid metamaterial structures by combining honeycomb, re-entrant, and star-shaped unit-cells by additive manufacturing (AM) techniques and tested them to evaluate the enhanced mechanical properties.
