Freshwater ecosystems are critical resources for drinking water. In recent decades, dissolved organic matter (DOM) inputs into aquatic systems have increased significantly, particularly in central and northern Europe, due to climatic and anthropogenic drivers. The associated increase in dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentration can change lake ecosystem services and adversely affect drinking water treatment processes.

Spatial transcriptomics allows the identification of disease- and cell-specific molecular signatures that may advance biomarker development and future treatments. This study identified transcriptional signatures in keratinocytes and sub-basal CD4 and CD8 T lymphocytes from patients with psoriasis and AD.

These treatments have led to unprecedented levels of disease clearance and control for most patients with psoriasis with cutaneous disease. However, there remains a need for improved treatments for those patients with recalcitrant disease, psoriatic arthritis, or nonplaque disease variants.
