Activation of vasculature associated stem cells and muscle stem cells for the repair and maintenance of muscle tissue (Endostem)
Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2014,
We propose to develop new strategies to mobilize skeletal muscle tissue-associated stem cells as a tool for efficient tissue repair. This will be combined with exploring novel approaches that limit tissue damage, and will focus on agents that modify muscle and muscle vasculature progenitor cells. These molecules include nitric oxide associated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, HMGB1, Cri ...

Optimization of stem cell therapy for clinical trials of degenerative skin and muscle diseases (OptiStem)
Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2013,
This proposal aims to develop and implement efficacy of clinical trials with adult, tissue stem cells for degenerative diseases of epithelia and skeletal muscle. Extraordinary progress in the understanding of several key features of stem cells has been rapidly translated into novel cell therapy protocols that have yielded positive results in pre-clinical models of genetic and acquired diseases and ...

COURAGE in Europe - COllaborative Research on AGEing in Europe (COURAGE IN EUROPE)
Start date: May 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2012,
The European Commission has identified the challenge of population ageing as the most pressing policy issue in the 21st century. As Europeans live longer and disabilities in this population increase, valid and comparable longitudinal data on their health is essential for evidence based policy making. Valid data requires better measurement instruments and methodologies for longitudinal and cross-po ...
