Alzheimer’s disease-associated lipid and metabolic alterations: role of Mitochondria-Associated Membranes (MAM)

Morphological and functional changes in Mitochondria-Associated Membranes in bipolar disorder (BPD) and schizophrenia (SCZ)

Bioactivity of extracts and isolated compounds from natural resources for development of sustainable preventive/therapeutic/care strategies

Overview

Our mission is to investigate the molecular basis of neuropsychiatric disorders associated namely age-related neurodegenerative disorders (Alzheimer’s disease), and severe mental disorders (bipolar disorder and schizophrenia), in order to identify potential applications in the diagnosis, prognosis and therapy. We use several disease models like cell lines and primary cell cultures and also sub-cellular fractions, control- versus patient-derived cells and transgenic mice, together with multiple experimental approaches including biochemistry, molecular and cellular biology, and animal behavior analysis. Our group focus on the disease-associated deregulation of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria stress responses and we are also interested in understanding how disturbances of close ER-mitochondria contacts (MAMs) trigger pathological stress responses. Our studies can contribute to the development of novel therapies for the above diseases promoting human health and well-being, particularly multifaceted disease-modifying strategies based on bioactive natural resources.
