The team used mouse models of asthma and human airway tissue from asthmatic and non-asthmatic people to reach their findings.
These symptoms include airway narrowing, airway twitchiness and inflammation all of which contribute to increased breathing difficulty. ur findings are said incredibly exciting

and drive asthma symptoms like airway twitchiness, inflammation, and narrowing. Using calcilytics, nebulized directly into the lungs,
the identification of Casr in airway tissue means that the potential for treatment of other inflammatory lung diseases beyond asthma is immense.

an international team of astronomers has discovered jets of material ejected by still-forming young brown dwarfs,
and found that four of them have the type of jets emitted by more-massive stars during their formation.
The jets were detected by radio observations with the VLA. The scientists also observed the brown dwarfs with the Spitzer
and Herschel space telescopes to confirm their status as very young objects. his is the first time that such jets have been found coming from brown dwarfs at such an early stage of their formation,
In the early stages of star formation, jets of material are propelled outward from the poles of the disk.
No such jets mark planet formation, however. Previous evidence strongly suggested that brown dwarfs shared the same formation mechanism as their larger siblings
but detecting the telltale jets is an important confirmation. Based on this discovery, e conclude that the formation of brown dwarfs is scaled a-down version of the process that forms larger stars,

They can be integrated into aircraft easily replacing the need for more complex hydraulic actuators motors and hinges.
You can find them in cars airplanes robots and medical implants. But their use has been limited in aircraft
because many can t handle the conditions planes are exposed to such as extreme temperature changes says Christophe Cros a technology program leader at Airbus. The MIT approach has a number of advantages Cros says.
First most shape-shifting materials don t use carbon composites which are common in aircraft because of their light weight and high strength.
And though others have worked on carbon composites that can respond to a specific stimulus such as heat Cros says in the new approach the carbon composites can be paired with a variety of shape-shifting materials that respond to different environmental triggers.
