Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
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.

Description of Tilt-Up Concrete Wall Construction [PDF]
: Tilt-up concrete wall construction is an alternative to cast-in-place, precast, or masonry methods of constructing building walls. The process involves more than just a cast and lift operation.

Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry
Viruses infect all living organisms and have been responsible for major epidemics and pandemics. Their ongoing evolutionary battle with host defenses creates a constant need for improved tools to study viral behavior. Advancing methods to probe viral attachment, fusion, and genome release deepen our understanding of how infections begin and support the

Supplemental Video 1: Veno-arterial bundles and valve recruitment during head-up tilt.
Examples of deep femoral vein valve recruitment during -6 degree head-down tilt, supine rest, 20 degree head-up tilt, and 40 degree head-up tilt. SFA = superficial femoral artery, DFV = deep femoral vein.

Aims The head‐up tilt test (HUTT) has been markedly changed over the years, especially in the specified time for the passive and active phases. However, a consensus‐based protocol has yet to be established.

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 ...

Designing GFRP-Reinforced Tilt-up Wall Panels [PDF]
Tilt-up construction was effectively enabled on a wide scale in 1979, when the ACI committee 551 report on Tilt-up construction was published, the Recommended Tilt-Up Wall Design, aka, the Yellow Book and the subsequent ACI-SEASC Task, aka the Green Book,

Tilt-up construction and design evaluation and methodology [PDF]
Tilt-up construction basically involves job-site prefabrication of concrete building members under controlled and relatively economical conditions. This master’s report presents tilt-up design procedures, along with construction procedures and planning ...
