ABSTRACT Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a common virus that causes respiratory infections, posing a serious threat, particularly to infants, the elderly, and individuals with compromised immune systems. As the leading cause of lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) in infants, RSV is responsible for millions of cases worldwide each year.

The continuing significance of chiral agrochemicals
In the time frame 2018–2023, around 43% of the 35 chiral agrochemicals introduced to the market (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, and nematicides) contain one or more stereogenic centers in the molecule, and almost 69% of them have been marketed as racemic mixtures of enantiomers or stereoisomers.

Leveraging Viscosity to Unlock the Osteogenic Potential of BMP‐2 Mimetic DWIVA
Dynamic interfaces based on supported lipid bilayers demonstrate that the osteogenic potential of the BMP‐2 mimetic DWIVA can be harnessed by modulating substrate viscosity. This work highlights that the viscous properties of the cellular microenvironment play a crucial role in the mechanosensitive regulation of growth factor activity.

Allergic Sensitization to Inhalant Allergens in the Upper Respiratory Tract—the B Cell Side
ABSTRACT Allergic diseases are on the rise worldwide, driven by respiratory epithelial barrier dysfunction that promotes sensitization to inhalant allergens such as pollen, dust mites, pet dander, and fungal spores. These antigens trigger IgE‐mediated immune responses that lead to diseases such as allergic rhinitis (AR) and asthma.

Background and Purpose Bruton tyrosine kinase (Btk) is essential for B cell function. Its role in myeloid cells is less understood. Greater insights into Btk significance in myeloid cells are needed to evaluate its potential as a therapeutic target during the effector phase of antibody‐induced autoimmune diseases, where inhibiting autoantibody ...

Expression of the CXCR4 S338X Variant Improves Anti‐Leukemia Efficacy of Anti‐CD19 CAR‐T Cells
Under normal conditions, CXCL12 stimulation induces CXCR4 degradation. In contrast, CAR19‐T cells expressing the CXCR4 S338X variant maintain receptor stability and sustain ERK and AKT signaling, which supports T‐cell effector function, migration, and survival. Therefore, the enhanced anti‐leukemic activity is conferred by CXCR4 S338X expression in CAR‐
