ADAPT FOR LIFE

On the 14th of December 2017 in Brussels at the BEL Building the results of the research developments of the DKA Vlaanderen project: Adapt for life was released to the public. EUIA PRESS was at the event to record some interviews for this project group. https://soundcloud.com/adaptforlife/sets/adapt-for-life-ugent-be-dka Luister naar de playlist  Adapt for life Ugent.be DKA Vlaanderen event Brussel BEL GEBOUW van adaptforlife #np op #SoundCloud https://soundcloud.com/adaptforlife/sets/ adapt-for-life-ugent-be-dka BEL Brussel, Adapt for life http://bel.brussels/nl/content/een-zaal-huren-om-een-duurzaam-evenement-te-organiseren-vertrouw-op-het-bel-belbrussels   donderdag 14 december BEL-gebouw Thurn & Taxis (Havenlaan 86C/3002, Brussel

Skin Health, Fundamental EU Research

Manipulating genes could modulate the homeostasis of the skin ... RNASEBGLAND — Result In Brief Project ID: 627547 Funded under: FP7-PEOPLE Country: Sweden Domain: Health, Fundamental Research Genetic and epigenetic cross-talk and effects on acne development Sebaceous glands (SGs) have a dual role – lipid metabolism and inflammation. Study of master gene regulators involved may hold the key to effective therapies for diseases such as acne that affects up to 90 % of teenagers in the Western world. © MASTER PHOTO 2017, Shutterstock The EU-funded RNASEBGLAND (Regulation of gene expression in sebaceous glands) project has identified and linked common genetic programmes and their possible regulators in SGs that lead to this interesting dual function and related inflammatory diseases. Stimuli in acne and dermatitis, toll like receptor (TLR) 2 and four activators induced a significant number of genes in SG cells. Clustering these genes revealed that they are primarily involved in i
