Several aquaporins (AQPs) are expressed in mammalian skin. Some are directly involved
in water transport, such as AQP5, which is involved in sweat secretion. In contrast, the …

Photosynthetic organisms have developed multiple protective mechanisms to survive under
high-light conditions. In plants, one of these mechanisms is the thermal dissipation of …

Pathological studies on Parkinson's disease (PD) patients suggest that PD pathology
progresses from the enteric nervous system (ENS) and the olfactory bulb into the central nervous …

The influenza virus (IFV) acquires its envelope by budding from host cell plasma membranes.
Using quantitative shotgun mass spectrometry, we determined the lipidomes of the host …

The water and solute transporting properties of the epidermis have been proposed to be
important determinants of skin moisture content and barrier properties. The water/small solute-…

10.7554/eLife.02409.001 One of the key questions in biology is how the metabolism of a
cell responds to changes in the environment. In budding yeast, starvation causes a drop in …

The purpose of this study was to examine the presence of aquaporin water channels in
human skin and to assess their functional role. On western blots of human epidermis obtained …

Membrane curvature sensors have diverse structures and chemistries, suggesting that they
might have the intrinsic capacity to discriminate between different types of vesicles in cells. In …
