Folding with Halogen Bonding (FOLDHALO)
Date du début: 1 mars 2013, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2018,
"The focus of this research project will be on halogen bonding, namely any noncovalent interactions involving halogen atoms as electrophilic species (electron density acceptor sites, Lewis acids, halogen bonding-donors). In particular, the overall goal of the project will be to fully elucidate the capabilities and properties of halogen atoms as recognition “sticky” sites in the context of biomolec ...

New Models for Preclinical Evaluation of Drug Efficacy in Common Solid Tumours (PREDECT)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2011, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2016,
Traditional preclinical discovery methods, particularly for target validation, poorly predict drug efficacy, causing a high attrition rate in costly late-stage clinical trials. The PREDECT consortium will focus on complex but transferable, next generation in vitro and in vivo models for breast, prostate and lung cancers. Models will be investigated for their improved potential to validate novel th ...

Development of novel treatment strategies based on knowledge of cellular dysfunction in diabetes (BetaBat)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2011, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2015,
A reduction in functional pancreatic beta cell mass is the key feature of type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Beta cell failure is exacerbated in the context of obesity and insulin resistance. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is a highly metabolic organ, mediating energy dissipation and glucose disposal, thus contributing to maintain energy balance. BAT dysfunction contributes to obesity and impaired glucose me ...

Expanding EPNOE leadership towards Food and Health related materials, and increasing industrial participation (EPNOE CSA)
Date du début: 1 mars 2012, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2015,
The need for a transition towards a CO2 neutral biobased economy or bioeconomy, increasing population and globalisation of economies will have the consequence of a need for enhanced supplies of biobased resources. To this end, polysaccharides will be at the central point of the world of tomorrow for sustainable fuel, food, materials and medicine production. EPNOE (European Polysaccharide Network o ...

Natural products from marine fungi for the treatment of cancer (MARINE FUNGI)
Date du début: 1 mai 2011, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2014,
The aim of MARINE FUNGI is the demonstration of sustainable exploitation of marine natural resources providing appropriate culture conditions for the underutilised group of marine fungi, thus enabling efficient production of marine natural products in the laboratory and also in large scale cultures, avoiding harm to the natural environment. The focus of MARINE FUNGI are new anti-cancer compounds T ...

European Collaborative Project on Inflamation and Vascular Wall Remodelling in Atherosclerosis (ATHEROREMO)
Date du début: 1 mai 2008, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2013,
"The health of the EC population has never been better. However, serious public health problems remain, which cannot be ignored including high levels of premature death due to cardiovascular diseases. Thus, new preventive, diagnostic and therapeutic strategies against atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases are needed. The atherosclerotic changes of the vascular wall are central in the developmen ...

Characterization and modelling of dietary effects mediated by gut microbiota on lipid metabolism (ETHERPATHS)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2009, Date de fin: 30 juin 2013,
"Dysregulation of lipid homeostasis is related to multiple major global healthcare problems today, including aging, diabetes and cardiovascular disease. It has already been shown that nutritional modulation of lipid homeostasis via direct supplementation, e.g., n-3 fatty acids, or via indirect mechanisms, e.g., dietary polyphenols, has beneficial effects on human health. There is growing evidence ...
