Managing Risks of Nanoparticles (MARINA)
Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2015,
While there are standard procedures for product life cycle analysis, exposure, hazard, and risk assessment for traditional chemicals, is not yet clear how these procedures need to be modified to address all the novel properties of nanomaterials. There is a need to develop specific reference methods for all the main steps in managing the potential risk of ENM. The aim of MARINA is to develop such ...

Synaptic Systems: dissecting brain function in health and disease (SYNSYS)
Start date: Jul 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2014,
Major disorders of the Central Nervous System (CNS) affect one in three people in the developed world, often seriously disable the affected individual, and together account for the single largest burden on the healthcare systems of the EU. Most of these disorders act at the neuronal synapse, a cellular organelle comprising in the order of 2000 proteins. Pleiotropy, cross-talk between proteins and ...

Regulation and function of the E3 ubiquitin ligases Muscle RING finger 1 and 3 in cardiac hypertrophy (MuRF and hypertrophy)
Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2013,
Heart failure caused by cardiac hypertrophy is a growing epidemic and remains the most frequent cause of hospitalization in elderly patients in the European Union. However, molecular mechanisms leading to cardiac hypertrophy and its transition into heart failure are poorly understood. Maintenance of cardiac structure and function requires a precise control of protein synthesis and degradation; abn ...

Comparative stem cell research in mouse and humans (INDUSTEM)
Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2012,
The InduStem project is aimed at creating a mutually beneficial training and transfer of knowledge program between a Hungarian SME and a Dutch and a German academic research institution. The scientific and industrial aim is to generate novel information on the generation and maintenance of induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells in mouse and human and on their differentiation towards cardiac cells. T ...
