TL;DR: The idea that telomere dysfunction is involved in IPF pathogenesis is supported, as whole‐exome sequencing data identified TERT, RTEL1, and PARN—three telomeres‐related genes previously implicated in familial pulmonary fibrosis—as significant contributors to sporadic IPF.

TL;DR: A protective role for mucosal HIV-1 envelope-specific IgA responses in the context of postnatal virus transmission is suggested, which supports further investigations into the mechanisms by which mucosal IgA reduces risk of HIV- 1 transmission via breast milk and into immune interventions aimed at enhancing this response.

TL;DR: The EQAPOL Viral Diversity panel is an invaluable collection of well-characterized reagents available to the scientific community, including researchers, epidemiologists, and commercial manufacturers of diagnostics and pharmaceuticals to support HIV research, as well as diagnostic and vaccine development.

TL;DR: Three new clade C T/F SHIVs are developed that are mucosally transmissible and are neutralized by sCD4 and several HIV-1 broadly neutralizing antibodies, and exhibit low Env reactivity and a Tier 2 neutralization sensitivity.

TL;DR: The ordered changes in protein expression suggest that the airway epithelial response to diacetyl may contribute to BO pathogenesis.
