Back pain exercise therapy remodels human epigenetic profiles in buccal and human peripheral blood mononuclear cells: an exploratory study in young male participants by Claire Burny, Mia Potočnjak, Mia Potočnjak, Annika Hestermann, Sophie Gartemann, Michael Hollmann, Frank Schifferdecker-Hoch, Nina Markanovic, Simone Di Sanzo, Simone Di Sanzo, Michael Günsel, Victor Solis-Mezarino, Moritz Voelker-Albert, Moritz Voelker-Albert

“…Therefore, we hypothesize that therapy effects can be objectively evaluated by measurable epigenetic histone posttranslational modifications and proteome expression. Because epigenetic modifications are dynamic and responsive to environmental exposure, lifestyle choices—such as physical activity—can alter epigenetic profiles, subsequent gene expression, and health traits. …”

Enhanced Efficiency and Stability of Perovskite Solar Cells Through Neodymium-Doped Upconversion Nanoparticles with TiO₂ Coating by Masfer Alkahtani, Bayan Alshehri, Hadeel Alrashood, Latifa Alshehri, Yahya A. Alzahrani, Sultan Alenzi, Ibtisam S. Almalki, Ghazal S. Yafi, Abdulmalik M. Alessa, Faisal S. Alghannam, Abdulaziz Aljuwayr, Nouf K. AL-Saleem, Anwar Alanazi, Masud Almalki

“…The incorporation of neodymium (Nd³⁺) as a novel sensitizer shifts the near-infrared (NIR) absorption band away from the water vapor absorption region in the solar spectrum. This modification enables UCNPs to efficiently convert NIR light into ultraviolet (UV) and blue wavelengths, which are readily absorbed by TiO₂, generating additional charge carriers and improving photovoltaic performance. …”
