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.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Self-healing of epoxy resins using self assembling healing agents
, 2023 We describe the concept of self-assembly through ionomer formation to achieve healing agents of critical molecular weight (MW). Thermal self-healing of epoxy resins could be induced while maintaining a low resin blend viscosity for direct fibre ...

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Self‐healing Coatings Based on Epoxy Vitrimers
Macromolecular Materials and EngineeringThe present study focuses on the development of epoxy‐based vitrimeric coatings with thermal‐healing ability. For this purpose, ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether (EG) is crosslinked with methyl nadic anhydride (MNA) in the presence of 1‐methylimidazole (1‐

, 2006 Biology provides the synthetic chemist with a tantalizing and frustrating challenge: to create complex objects, defined from the molecular scale up to meters, that construct themselves from elementary components, and perhaps even reproduce themselves. This is the challenge of bottom-up fabrication.
