1. Non-invasive monitoring of low molecular weight biomarkers relevant to skin inflammation and cancer
Abstract : Development of skin inflammation and cancer in viable epidermis and dermis involve slow molecular weight (LMW) metabolites. We hypothesize that these LMW compounds can be collected on the surface of the skin and used for non-invasive diagnostics of skin disorders. READ MORE

3. Bridging immune activation with the kynurenine pathway : implications for psychosis
Abstract : Kynurenic acid (KYNA), an endogenous N-Methyl-D-aspartic acid receptor (NMDAR) antagonist, is elevated in patients with schizophrenia. In addition, elevated levels of KYNA are associated with activation of the immune system, which also has been implicated in the development and maintenance of psychotic disorders, including schizophrenia.

Increased levels of KYNA are found in the brain and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of patients with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, and are associated to psychotic symptoms. READ MORE
