We focus on our models and assays for atopic dermatitis research and […]
Originally, olfactory receptors (ORs) were described to detect odors. Consequently, they are well known to play a central role for smelling in mammals. However, ORs are not only expressed in the nose, instead we, at Monasterium Laboratory, demonstrated that their physiological functions extends beyond that of olfaction, since these receptors are also functionally expressed in […]
