Smart multifunctional GLA-nanoformulation for Fabry disease (Smart-4-Fabry)
Start date: Jan 1, 2017, End date: Dec 31, 2020,
Lysosomal storage disorders (LSD) diseases are a group of rare diseases that currently lack a definitive cure. LSD incidence is about 1:5,000 - 1:10,000, representing a serious global health problem. In the case of Fabry LSD Disease (FD), the deficiency in α-Galactosidase A (GLA) enzyme activity results in the cellular accumulation of neutral glycosphingolipids, leading to widespread vasculopathy ...

Microbubble driven multimodal imaging and theranostics for gliomas (THERAGLIO)
Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2018,
Microbubbles (MBs) are used as contrast agent in ultrasound (US) imaging for a variety of tumours while little has been done for glioblastomas, a rare cancer. Intraoperative Contrast-Enhanced US-imaging (CEUS) using lipidic MBs hold promises in increasing extent of resection of such tumors. Furthermore, MBs gained recently interest as a delivery system for drugs. We will develop a new generation o ...
