Signalling compartmentalization and vesicle Trafficking at the Phagocytic Synapses (STEPS)
Start date: Apr 1, 2013, End date: Mar 31, 2019,
A key feature of the immune response is its specificity and macrophages must be able to discriminate precisely between an infectious stimulus and a non-infectious one and tune their response in accordance with the molecular context in which the target particle is recognized. In recent years, scientists have proposed the concept of the phagocytic synapse, to stress the fact that a particle does not ...

MEsenchymal stem cells to Reduce Liver INflammation (MERLIN)
Start date: Feb 1, 2014, End date: Jan 31, 2018,
"Prevalence of liver disease is c6% (29 million people) in the EU with mortality rates from chronic liver diseases estimated at 14.3 per 100.000 in the EU-25 in 2004. Most liver diseases have a significant inflammatory component that underpins liver damage and fibrogenesis, yet current therapies have limited effectiveness. Safe novel anti-inflammatory therapies would satisfy a large unmet need for ...
