Long-term, prospective study evaluating clinical and molecular biomarkers of epileptogenesis in a genetic model of epilepsy – tuberous sclerosis complex (EPISTOP)
Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2018,
Despite a great progress in the management of epilepsy, still one third of patients is refractory to available medications. The incidence of epilepsy is highest in infancy and 50% of children experience epilepsy-related comorbidities, such as developmental delay and autism. The development of epilepsy (epileptogenesis), extensively studied in animals, is barely studied in humans, as patients usual ...

Fishing for Medicines and their targets using Zebrafish models of human diseases (FISHMED)
Start date: Dec 1, 2012, End date: May 31, 2016,
The International Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology (IIMCB) was created with the support of UNESCO, Polish Academy of Sciences (PAN) and the Polish Government and started its activity in 1999. The Institute is a unique, innovative, based on the best world standards research centre, known for it’s scientific excellence. In 2010, IIMCB was ranked first among 36 biological institutions in Polan ...

Structural Biology of Membrane Proteins (SBMPs)
Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Aug 31, 2012,
Membrane proteins (MPs) are known to be key molecules in cellular communications, from signal transduction to transport of ions, metabolites and other molecules. They also participate in the synthesis of ATP, the import of soluble or MPs from the cytosol, and they protect living organisms from toxic factors. The proposal consists in a joint training effort involving the major biophysical methods t ...

Proteins in Health and Disease (HEALTH-PROT)
Start date: Apr 1, 2009, End date: Mar 31, 2012,
This project is targeted at continuation and expansion of activities initiated as the FP5 Centre of Excellence in Molecular Bio-Medicine (CEMBM). In the past as the Centre of Excellence we developed an advanced methodology of analysis of complex protein structures with the use of cell and molecular biology techniques, biochemical methods, crystallographic analysis and computer modelling. Our goal ...

GSK-3 in neuronal plasticity and neurodegeneration: basic mechanisms and pre-clinical assessment (NEURO.GSK3)
Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2011,
"Neuronal circuits in mammalian brain act predominantly via excitatory synapses on dendritic spines. Formation of new spines in adult brain constitutes the structural basis of neuronal plasticity. The underlying molecular mechanisms remain largely unknown but depend essentially on kinase-dependent signalling pathways. Final formation of synapses on spines depends on dynamic interactions of microtu ...
