Acute pain therapy

pain while reducing potential side effects. In studies published in high-ranking journals, we investigate new drug combinations and non-medical measures that prevent pain from becoming chronic. Contact

Research

another very important focus of our division is science and research. Our main research areas investigate the course and neurobiological background of bipolar affective disorder and severe psychiatric [...] the long term (LONG) Neurobiological fundamentals and features of bipolar affective disorder are investigated in the long term. Research areas: Tryptophan metabolism, genetics/epigenetics, cognition, imaging [...] Tolerance of Psychotropic Drugs and Psychotherapeutic Methods Randomized controlled trials to investigate the effectiveness and effects of psychopharmacological treatment (e.g., S-ketamine ) and psychotherapy

pathogenesis of prevalent metabolic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and atherosclerosis. Our team investigates the function of lipid hydrolases in the regulation of lipid and energy metabolism in the whole [...] (3) description of the complex reaction processes of hydrolytic cleavage of lipids, and (4) investigation of the role of lipid hydrolases in the development of diseases such as obesity, diabetes, non [...] and are involved in a wide variety of diseases, including atherosclerosis. In this project, we investigate whether and how lipases can affect platelet metabolism and alter platelet aggregation, shape, and

Team Gauster

invasiveness of the placenta cells into the maternal uterine wall will be investigated in detail. These questions have not been investigated before and represent a new scientific concept that opens up novel [...] r spaces of fetal cells that anchor the placenta to the uterine wall. Subsequent microscopic investigations suggest activation of the maternal platelets in these intercellular spaces. Based on these o [...] platelet activation and the release of platelet-derived factors on fetal placental cells will be investigated in this follow-up project. The effect of the platelet- derived factors on cell differentiation

the cellular and molecular interplay between the immune and cardiovascular system. Our research investigates the role of the immune system in maintaining heart health and the acute and chronic immune response [...] cells can lead to autoimmunity and persistent damage to the heart. In this project, we aim to investigate the immunological signaling pathway of antigen presentation, which is responsible for the initial
