Skin, as the outermost organ in the human body, continuously confronts the external environment
and serves as a primary defense system. The protective functions of skin include UV-…

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a multifactorial inflammatory skin disease perpetuated by gene-environmental
interactions and which is characterized by genetic barrier defects and allergic …

Bone mineral density (BMD) is the most widely used predictor of fracture risk. We performed
the largest meta-analysis to date on lumbar spine and femoral neck BMD, including 17 …

Proteases in the skin are essential to epidermal permeability barrier homeostasis. In addition
to their direct proteolytic effects, certain proteases signal to cells by activating protease-…

Thin films based on two-dimensional metal halide perovskites have achieved exceptional
performance and stability in numerous optoelectronic device applications. Simple solution …

The collective behaviour of interacting magnetic moments can be strongly influenced by the
topology of the underlying lattice. In geometrically frustrated spin systems, interesting chiral …

Autosomal dominant polycystic liver disease results from mutations in PRKCSH or SEC63.
The respective gene products, glucosidase IIβ and SEC63p, function in protein translocation …

Methylammonium lead iodide (CH3NH3PbI3) based solar cells have shown impressive power
conversion efficiencies of above 20%. However, the microscopic mechanism of the high …

A challenge of hybrid perovskite solar cells is device instability, which calls for an understanding
of the perovskite structural stability and phase transitions. Using neutron diffraction and …

Topical solvent treatment removes lipids from the stratum corneum leading to a marked
increase in transepidermal water loss (TEWL). This disturbance stimulates a variety of metabolic …
