Strengthening adaptive immunity via innate immunity: enhancing the CD8 T cell response by using the NKG2D ligand expressed in a herpesvirus vector (StAdvInn)

Start date: May 1, 2013, End date: Apr 30, 2018,

CD8+ T cells play a key role in the control of infections by intracellular pathogens. Recently, several top-notch studies provided ample evidence that NK cells are important in the regulation of CD8+ T cell response. NKG2D is an activating NK cell receptor which plays a role in the adaptive immune response by co-stimulating CD8+ T cells. Due to unique pattern of immune response, live attenuated CM...

DRIVING RE-INVESTMENT IN R&D AND RESPONSIBLE ANTIBIOTIC USE (DRIVE-AB)

Start date: Oct 1, 2014, End date: Sep 30, 2017,

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is widespread. Its global human and economic burden is tremendous and increasing annually. Yet today only a few pharmaceutical companies retain active antibacterial drug discovery programmes. While the elaboration of antibiotics with novel mechanisms of action is scientifically complex, the chief challenge is diminishing incentives. Pre-market regulatory requirements...

Upgrading the capacities for research in translational medicine at the Faculty of Medicine University of Rijeka (TransMedRi)

Start date: Jul 1, 2010, End date: Jun 30, 2013,

One of the major impediments for development of the biomedical research at the University of Rijeka has been the lack of a competitive research environment. Perhaps this is because many universities in this region retain remnants of the old socialist approach to medical education and research. Because of the limited internal resources, most of the training of the young investigators has been accom...
