Syngeneic natural killer cell therapy activates dendritic and T cells in metastatic lungs and effectively treats low-burden metastases.

Natural killer (NK) cells can control metastasis through cytotoxicity and IFN-γ production independently of T cells in experimental metastasis mouse models. The inverse correlation between NK activity and metastasis incidence supports a critical role for NK cells in human metastatic surveillance. However, autologous NK cell therapy has shown limited benefit in treating patients with metastatic solid tumors.

The Role of Narratives in Countering Health Misinformation: A Scoping Review of the Literature.

Given the prevalence of health misinformation, it is essential to develop interventions to correct misinformation and reduce its negative influence. Emerging research has investigated the use of narratives as both prebunking and debunking strategies, but the findings are mixed regarding their effectiveness. This systematic scoping review aimed to examine the role of narratives in countering health misinformation, drawing on evidence from 19 studies.

A dendritic hexamer acceptor enables 19.4% efficiency with exceptional stability in organic solar cells.

To achieve the commercialization of organic solar cells (OSCs), it is crucial not only to enhance power conversion efficiency (PCE) but also to improve device stability through rational molecular design. Recently emerging giant molecular acceptor (GMA) materials offer various advantages, such as precise chemical structure, high molecular weight (beneficial to film stability under several external stress), and impressive device efficiency, making them a promising candidate. Here, we report a dendritic hexamer acceptor developed through a branch-connecting strategy, which overcomes the molecular weight bottleneck of GMAs and achieves a high production yield over 58%.

Molecular Understanding of CO Absorption by Choline Chloride/Urea Confined within Nanoslits.

Clarifying the potential relationship between the microstructure of nanoconfined choline chloride/urea (ChClU) and CO absorption performance is key to understanding the abnormal increase in CO under nanoconfinement. In this study, we used molecular dynamics simulations and grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) to systematically study the mechanism underlying the absorption of CO by ChClU within nanoslits. According to the spatial distribution, ChClU can form two different laminar regions within nanoslits, namely, the interfacial region (region I) and beyond region I (region II).
