Mucosal Immunology Laboratory
Research in this laboratory is also related to Cardiovascular.
Head of laboratory:
Research conducted by this unit focuses on mucosal immunity, at both a molecular and cellular level. More specifically, this unit investigates the involvement of a number of genes (traditionally associated with the control of the immune response) in experimental models of idiopathic inflammatory bowel disease and atherosclerosis, with a view to gaining new insights into the mechanisms which underlie these disorders.
