Metabolism and Organic Damage Area

We have shown that NK and lymphocytes B express and secrete alpha-1 antitrypsin

We have discovered a group of miRNAs that could be used for the diagnosis and prognosis of alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency. We are currently validating these results using an external cohort

A new method based on oxidative stress markers to identify patients with Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia has been set up

We have set up the high-speed video method to identify patients with Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia

We have shown that hypoxia modifies neutrophil degranulation and enhances oxidative damage in alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency patients
