Persistence of allergic sensitization (PAS)

Start date: Dec 1, 2009, End date: Nov 30, 2014,

"Allergic disorders are dramatically increasing in the western world over the past several years. Allergies are inappropriate immune responses directed against harmless environmental antigens. Upon primary allergen encounter B cells are induced to differentiate into IgE producing plasma cells. Mast cells and basophils are then sensitized by binding of allergen-specific IgE molecules to the high-af ...

Memory loss in Alzheimer disease: underlying mechanisms and therapeutic targets (MEMOSAD)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2011,

"MEMOSAD aims at defining the molecular mechanisms of Abeta- and Tau-induced synaptotoxicity and at developing disease-modifying therapeutics for the prevention of memory loss in Alzheimer disease (AD). Insoluble aggregates of the two proteins provide the pathological hallmarks of this incurable brain disorder. Early stage AD is characterized by a remarkably pure impairment of declarative memory a ...
