Researchers have developed a method to produce very low emission concrete at scale -- an innovation that could be transformative in the transition to net zero. The method, which the researchers say is 'an absolute miracle', uses the electrically-powered arc furnaces used for steel recycling to simultaneously recycle cement, the carbon-hungry component of concrete.

Following colonic inflammation, the uninjured bladder afferent neurons are also activated. The mechanisms and pathways underlying this sensory neuron cross-activation (from injured neurons to uninjured neurons) are not fully understood. Colonic and bladder afferent neurons reside in the same spinal segments and are separated by satellite glial cells (SGCs) and extracellular matrix in dorsal root ganglia (DRG).

Metformin's potential in treating ischemic stroke and neurodegenerative conditions is of growing interest. Yet, the absence of established systemic and brain pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters at relevant pre-clinical doses presents a significant knowledge gap. This study highlights these PK parameters and the importance of using pharmacologically relevant pre-clinical doses to study pharmacodynamics (PD) in stroke and related neurodegenerative diseases.
