Research lines

Immunological alterations as basis of inmunosenescencein pathological aging.

This research line is centered into the study of the role of cross-reactivity among oxidized lipoproteins (oxLDL), antiB2-GP1 and membrane phospholipids, as well as between these complexes and heat shock proteins. We also focus into the role of proinflamatory (IL2 / IL6 / TNFalpha) and anti-inflamatory (IL4 / IL-10) cytokines, as well as with the different activation profiles of TCR and/or CD14 (TLR4) and the role of hormones such as melatonin and the growth hormone.

Endothelial senescence and their pleiotropic effects onto inflamatory processes, inmunological response and angiogenesis.

Identification at the molecular level of pathways and proteins associated with the senescence of endothelial cells linked to aging and inflamatory responses. New candidate targets for therapeutic intervention at the clinical level and as new molecular moieties for nanomedicine approaches to improve aging related pathologies caused by endothelial inflamatory based senescence.
