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.

From patient advocacy to patient‐driven research: Building active partnerships beginning at the bench to reach the bedside

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Research is strongest when conducted alongside patients, not just about them. Patient research organizations help integrate patient perspectives into research priorities, study design, and scientific meetings, leading to meaningful patient outcomes and development of relevant therapies.

The characteristics of the scrap car tires as fuel [PDF]

Termotehnika, 2016
Using the scrap car tires (SCT) in the procedures of thermochemical decomposition is of great significance which is especially visible in the ecological aspects and in the fact that it is a renewable resource. To optimize processes of thermochemical decomposition (combustion, pyrolysis, gasification) it is necessary to know their characteristics.
