Diversion of adherens junctions by bacterial type III effectors during Shigella invasion of polarized intestinal epithelial cells (SHIGELLA INDUCED EMT)

Start date: Jun 1, 2011, End date: May 31, 2015,

Shigella is a gram-negative enteropathogenic bacterium responsible for dysentery in humans. The type III secretion system (T3SS) encoded on a large plasmid is a key virulence factor of Shigella. Upon epithelial contact, the T3SS allows the translocation of effector proteins into the target cells subverting host cell signal transduction pathways. These T3SS effectors reorganize the actin cytoskelet ...

A closed-loop neural prosthesis for dizziness suppression (CLONS)

Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Mar 31, 2013,

The main goal of the CLONS project is to develop suitable technological solutions to increase the quality of life of people affected by vestibular disorders. Toward this aim, an innovative closed-loop sensory neural prosthesis will be developed and tested in animal models and in selected humans. This neural prosthesis will be able to restore vestibular information by stimulating the semicircular c ...
