TL;DR: Halloysite nanotubes are a promising mesoporous media for catalytic nanoparticles that may be seeded on the tube surface or synthesized exclusively in the lumens, providing enhanced catalytic properties, especially at high temperatures.

TL;DR: In this paper, conductive, adhesive, wearable, and soft human-motion sensors are successfully assembled from conductive and human-friendly hybrid hydrogels with reliable self-healing capability and robust self-adhesiveness.

TL;DR: Investigation of human primary airway epithelial cell cultures revealed that lumenal columnar cells, specifically ciliated epithelial cells, were targeted by RSV and that cultures became susceptible to infection as they differentiated into a ciliated phenotype, suggesting that RSV infection in the absence of an immune response can be tolerated for >3 months.

TL;DR: Using a proper combination of AEO and K-MEPTS is a user-friendly approach for preparing silica/NR composites with excellent performance.

TL;DR: How the normal coordination of opposing ion transport pathways to maintain PCL volume is disrupted in cystic fibrosis is demonstrated, the hitherto unknown role of phasic motion in regulating key aspects of normal and CF innate airways defense is discovered, and maneuvers directed at increasing motion-induced nucleotide release may be therapeutic in CF patients are demonstrated.
