High-throughput peptidomics and transcriptomics of animal venoms for discovery of novel therapeutic peptides and innovative drug development (VENOMICS)
Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2015,
"Animal venoms are complex cocktails of peptides that have enormous potential as novel therapeutic leads. Replicating in vitro the diversity of venoms by generating large synthetic combinatorial peptide libraries will solve the challenge of working with limited amounts of natural products and permit high-throughput investigation of their pharmacology. A new investigation paradigm associating trans ...

Gastro-intestinal Peptides in Obesity (GIPIO)
Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2012,
"Obesity is the fasted growing health problem in the Western World. In the United States, obesity as cause of preventable mortality (365,000 deaths in the year 2000) will soon overtake tobacco (435,000 deaths) and already has overtaken alcohol consumption (85,000 deaths), infectious diseases (75,000) and motor vehicle crashes (43,000). More important, it is also a problem in children and adolescen ...
