TL;DR: It is proved that the occurrence of cumulative interference for word retrieval by prior retrieval of other exemplars of the same semantic category-cumulative semantic inhibition could only occur if the spoken word production system possesses three specific properties (competition, priming, and sharing of semantic activation).

TL;DR: This work demonstrates the first three-dimensional optical manipulation of single 50 nm dielectric objects with near-field nanotweezers, offering an unprecedented level of control of nanosized objects, including heat-sensitive biospecimens.
Abstract: Objects as small as 50 nm can be manipulated in three dimensions with near-field-based optical tweezers.

TL;DR: It is shown that infused negatively charged, immune-modifying microparticles, derived from polystyrene, microdiamonds, or biodegradable poly(lactic-co-glycolic) acid, were taken up by inflammatory monocytes, in an opsonin-independent fashion, via the macrophage receptor with collagenous structure (MARCO).
Abstract: Inflammatory monocyte-derived effector cells play an important role in the pathogenesis of numerous inflammatory diseases. However, no treatment option exists that is capable of modulating these cells specifically. We show that infused negatively charged, immune-modifying microparticles (IMPs), derived from polystyrene, microdiamonds, or biodegradable poly(lactic-co-glycolic) acid, were taken up by inflammatory monocytes, in an opsonin-independent fashion, via the macrophage receptor with collagenous structure (MARCO). Subsequently, these monocytes no longer trafficked to sites of inflammation; rather, IMP infusion caused their sequestration in the spleen through apoptotic cell clearance mechanisms and, ultimately, caspase-3-mediated apoptosis. Administration of IMPs in mouse models of myocardial infarction, experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, dextran sodium sulfate-induced colitis, thioglycollate-induced peritonitis, and lethal flavivirus encephalitis markedly reduced monocyte accumulation at inflammatory foci, reduced disease symptoms, and promoted tissue repair. Together, these data highlight the intricate interplay between scavenger receptors, the spleen, and inflammatory monocyte function and support the translation of IMPs for therapeutic use in diseases caused or potentiated by inflammatory monocytes.

TL;DR: Amphibole and mica are major hosts for Nb in the peridotitec upper mantle and strongly affect its Zr/Nb ratio as discussed by the authors, while apatite is a major host for Th, U, Cl, Br, LREE and Sr.

TL;DR: In this article, Hafnium isotope data from orogens worldwide show that each has produced a distinctive signature over the past 550 Myr, reflecting the contrasting subduction geometry in each setting.
Abstract: Two types of mountain-forming systems exist on Earth — external orogens form during oceanic–continental plate collisions and internal orogens form where continental plates collide. Hafnium isotope data from orogens worldwide show that each has produced a distinctive signature over the past 550 Myr, reflecting the contrasting subduction geometry in each setting.
