  • Coacervate droplets have potential as components for cell-like materials, but are limited by complex molecular structure and control of the internal microenvironment. Here, the authors report stable dipeptide-based coacervates with a microenvironment for the encapsulation of hydrophobic species.

  • The fragmentation of crystallization-driven self-assembly nanomaterials is only achievable with external stimuli. Now we report that two-dimensional platelets containing less stable domains can spontaneously fragment upon ageing, providing a simple one-step method for creating hollow platelet polymer particles.

  • Catalytic templates produce oligomers of a defined length, moving beyond stoichiometric ratios of template to substrate. Bifunctional catalytic macrocycles with a defined cavity have a high affinity for the monomer but not the oligomer, enabling high-turnover oligomer synthesis.

  • Acne vulgarisis a common, inflammatory skin disorder. Here the authors carry out a genome-wide association study and identify three genetic variants that associate with an increased risk of developing acne, which together suggest a mechanistic role for the TGFβ cell signalling pathway in acne development and progression.

  • Acne vulgaris is a chronic inflammation of the skin, the genetic basis of which is incompletely understood. Here, Petridis et al. perform GWAS and meta-analysis for acne in 26,722 individuals and identify 12 novel risk loci that implicate structure and maintenance of the skin in severe acne risk.
