2. Lysosomal network proteins as biomarkers and therapeutic targets in neurodegenerative disease
Abstract : The pre-symptomatic stage of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD) occurs several decades before the clinical onset.

3. Evolution and Pharmacology of Receptors for Bradykinin and Neuropeptide Y in Vertebrates
Abstract : The bradykinin and neuropeptide Y (NPY) receptors belong to the superfamily of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). The GPCRs form the largest class of therapeutic targets and it is therefore of great interest to investigate the pharmacological properties, functions and evolution of these receptors. READ MORE
